We fit wetrooms every month, i must say this is an overcomplicated way of tanking a wetroom, especially using tile adhesive to stick down the tanking tape, as tiling adhesive is not fully waterproof. Using a tanking slurry or solution is a much easier, tidyer and more secure waterproof solution. although this video gives a solution to tanking a wetroom, this is by far not the easiest way, especially if its being done DIY.

surely fibreglass matting to tank the floor is far better?

I'm doing this without a Wixdek. Should I just skip to step 23?

Wickes i would like to install a wetroom but i'm seeking a honest reliable accredited builder because i require an extention on my existing treatment room .

Wickes told me that they don't fit wetrooms on concrete floors. I have concrete under my lino floor. I may have to look elsewhere.

Can you do this if the existing bath is on tile?

@oootassss 3 жыл бұрын

Haha are you mad ?! Get that bath out with tiles first

I would have used a tanking solution rather than tile adhesive especially for the jointing tape areas. This system by Wickes is good but tanking lets it down.

How the hell do you clear the trap when it's full of the Mrs' hair?

@alanmorrison3085 5 жыл бұрын

Some shower traps have a removeable basket trap that can be removed completely with its dubious contents.

Get her to do it...think smart my man..stay strong in the marriage game..I’ll be thinking of you, married men need support for the pain and suffering they insure without praise. You are doing a good job keeping the female nutters off the street. 😂
