Shower Tray Vs Wet Room

The choice between a shower tray and wet room depends on multiple factors, including your preferences, budget, and the available space.

Accessibility:

Shower Tray: Shower trays may have a small step or lip to contain water, which can be less accessible for some people. However, low-profile trays are available to reduce this barrier.

Wet Room: Wet rooms are generally more accessible since they don't have a step or barrier to enter the showering area. This can be beneficial for individuals with mobility issues.

Design and Aesthetics:

Shower Tray: Shower trays come in various materials and designs. They often have a more traditional appearance with a defined showering area. However, modern trays can also be stylish and complement different bathroom designs

Wet Room: Wet rooms offer a seamless and contemporary look. They typically feature a fully tiled floor and walls, creating a modern and open design. The absence of a shower enclosure can make the space look larger.

Waterproofing:

Shower Tray: The shower tray itself provides a contained space, making waterproofing more straightforward compared to wet rooms. However, proper sealing is still necessary to prevent water leaks.

Wet Room: Proper waterproofing is crucial for wet rooms to prevent water damage. The entire bathroom floor needs to be properly sealed to ensure water doesn't leak into other areas of the house.

Cost:

Shower Tray: Shower trays are often more cost-effective, and there's a wide range of options to fit different budgets

Wet Room: Wet rooms can be more expensive to install due to the need for proper waterproofing and the potential for structural adjustments to the floor.
