Wet rooms are unforgiving. The finished tiles may look perfect while the important work is hidden underneath. I specialise in the preparation, waterproofing and tiling stages that determine whether a wet room lasts — including new installations and proper rebuilds where an existing wet room has failed. The work beneath the tiles is documented, not just the finished surface.
Specialist wet room enquiry
Planning a wet room?
A wet room is not something I price from square metres alone. Send photos, rough dimensions and a brief description of the project. I’ll review the construction, waterproofing and preparation requirements first, then arrange a site visit where needed.
Wet rooms are priced individually — the construction, falls and waterproofing need to be assessed properly first.
What's Included
- Substrate and floor construction assessed before waterproofing begins
- Falls and wet-area geometry checked before the finish is committed
- Compatible wet room waterproofing system installed to the required wet zone
- Junctions, board joints, penetrations and movement points detailed before tiling
- Drain and former interfaces carefully integrated with the waterproofing and tile finish
- Large-format or standard porcelain and ceramic tiling installed precisely
- Appropriate grout and movement-joint sealants specified for the installation
- Key preparation and waterproofing stages photographed before they disappear beneath the tiles
Preparation Examples

Jackoboard installation — shower walls prepared before tilingWhy Jackoboard instead of plasterboard?
Standard plasterboard absorbs moisture and will deteriorate behind tiles in wet areas — often causing tiles to debond or grout to crack within a few years.
Jackoboard is a waterproof foam-core construction board, not a cement board. It's made from extruded polystyrene (XPS) with a reinforced cement coating on the surface for tile adhesion.
It doesn't absorb water, stays dimensionally stable, and provides a reliable base for tiling in wet areas. Mechanically fixed, with joints taped and sealed, it creates a substrate that properly supports a long-lasting tiled finish.

Real Warrington wet room case study
Cracking grout and movement were the warning signs. What was underneath?
This documented rebuild starts with the investigation, shows the unsupported areas found beneath the shower floor, and follows the substrate repairs, waterproofing and retiling through to completion. It is the part of wet-room work customers normally never get to see.

Can you price a wet room from the online estimator?
Not properly. Wet room cost depends heavily on the existing construction, former or drainage arrangement, waterproofing, preparation and the tile specification. Send photos and rough dimensions first; I’ll review the project and arrange a site visit where needed.
Do you repair leaking or failed wet rooms?
I assess failed wet rooms, but I do not sell cosmetic patch repairs where the underlying waterproofing or construction has failed. If the system has failed, the reliable route is to expose the problem and rebuild the affected wet-room construction properly.
Do you photograph the waterproofing before it is tiled?
Yes. Key preparation and waterproofing stages can be photographed before they are covered, so there is a clear record of what was installed beneath the finished tiles.
Do you handle plumbing and electrical work?
My specialist work is the wet-room preparation, waterproofing and tiling. Where plumbing or electrical work is required, it must be carried out by the appropriate trade and coordinated with the wet-room build.
Which areas do you cover?
I’m based in Warrington and work across Cheshire and South Manchester, including Stockton Heath, Lymm, Knutsford, Altrincham and surrounding areas.
