When I renovated my third home, a small barn conversion with an equally small guest en-suite, a wet room seemed the obvious solution. Stylish, space-saving, easy to clean… what could possibly go wrong? Plenty, as it turns out.
I’d seen so many serene spa-style wet room ideas on Pinterest and assumed the look would translate effortlessly. The idea of one continuous floor with no clunky shower tray or grimy enclosure felt modern and practical. Plus, in a space that wasn’t exactly spacious, going barrier-free promised to make the room feel larger and more luxurious.
