Wet Room Tanking in Betchworth
Abinger Construction Ltd, a Dorking building company specialising in bathrooms, wetrooms and home renovations, covers wet room installation in Betchworth and the wider Surrey area. Tanking is the waterproof membrane under the tiles, and it is treated as the core of every bathroom and wet room rather than a stage to rush.
What sits underneath the tiles in a well built bathroom?
Tanking means sealing the walls and floor with a waterproof system before tiling. Grout lets moisture through over time, and the substrate behind it takes the harm. Abinger Construction Ltd treats waterproofing and tanking as the core of the job, not a line item to rush.
Failures that show up long after completion usually begin with hurried tanking. Joints, corners and outlets are the details a careful installer checks twice. Getting it right before tiling is far cheaper than opening a finished wall.
What are the disadvantages of a wet room?
The whole floor gets wet, so towels and toilet roll need careful positioning, and a wet room depends completely on good tanking and correct floor falls. Done badly, it leaks into the structure. Abinger Construction Ltd treats the tanking and the falls as the whole job, which removes the main risk.
What happens at the end of a Betchworth project?
Abinger Construction Ltd carries out regular quality inspections throughout the build, so nothing is covered until it has been checked. At the end you house extension in Dorking walk the finished job together and any last items are addressed.
Checking before covering up is where quality is really decided. The job is only done when the owner agrees it is.
What makes a level-access wet room work?
A wet room floor has to fall gently towards the drain so water never sits or escapes. Get the falls wrong and water pools, or runs towards the door. Abinger Construction Ltd builds level-access wetrooms and walk-in showers with the falls and tanking planned first.
Period houses need the floor build up and the drain position settled before work begins. Joist runs, floor depth and waste routes decide how the fall can be formed. Settling it early prevents costly changes halfway through.
