Nice work there Endfeed. I've never done one but would love to have one at home but I just don't have enough faith in that type of install upstairs. Howerver, I would be happy todo that work downstairs.

gravity's always the best option if you can get the fall, I agree with Battle, upstairs wetrooms are a risk, its only time before water finds a way through,,  |

Yes please do EF. I've never actually done a wet room although get to do lots of maintenance on them. A lot of leaks through the ceiling from them are caused by silly people not taking enough care when using them I find. The three "Cs" in having an upstairs wet room :- C control; the shower head at all times. C care; take care were the water is going when shower is in use. C containment; keep the waste water in the area of containment at all times. I made all this up (can you tell?)  Tappy, |

tappy's 3 C's rule is cool, A company I used to subby for did wetrooms up and down, I used to go to a lot of complains about the water coming from under the door, To those people I would quote tappys rule,,,,but I did't know it then, So I used to say, " keep the shower head over the drain and don't splash",,,  |

When i have to do them upstairs i use ,on the level tray(wood)o.t.l.but if the floor outside of the o.t.l tray is not level or slightly sloping towards the door,then the whole floor comes up and leveled with a slight fall towards tray. If you dont then there is a chance the water can run out the door or pool up some where😨

If you dont then there is a chance the water can run out the door or pool up some where😨 Once water is over the drain slope It's only a matter of a split second for it to be out the door and then through the ceiling, so the above is good thinking, but it is extra work! Do you fit the floor covering yourself EF? |
