    Hi
    I'm looking for a well recommended Tiler who is qualified to install the tiles for a wetroom. I am living in a city centre apartment and it currently has a bath that I need rid of so for additional space I wanted to put in a modern wetroom. I'm looking for someone who is reasonable enough on price and is able to also do the necessary plumbing for the new toilet and sink I'll be putting in also.
    Any ideas or recommendations.. please let me know.
    Thanks!

    Are you willing to have a step up at the door?

    Yeah maybe if that's required.. however if the gradient built for the wetroom is done right it shouldn't need one.

    It will be if your floors are concrete. Even the most low profile drains usually drain to a 50mm pipe in between timber floor joists.

    Perhaps it's worth checking this out with the buildings management company / their insurance..

    If you intend to have a completely unenclosed shower sharing the space with toilet pan and basin, I recommend you experience one for a week and thn see if you can live with it. I found it horrendous very quickly. Instead, I spli the bathroom in two with a glass screen with the shower on one side and the pan/basin on the other. The shower had mosaic style tiles, over time, the grouting needs a lot of attention and I changed them to larger tiles with a strong gradient (which does not suit everyone). You need an excellent tiler who has worked on these type of installations before, especially as you love in a multi unit where the cost of water egress is much greater than with a self contained house.

    Alternatovely, consider something like this which is not only quicker to install but a hell of a lot easier to avoid poor workmanship.
