Wet Room Installationin Oldham
Oldham has a characterful mix of Victorian mill-town terraces and post-war council housing, with the older streets in OL1–OL4 often concealing original pipework that dates back decades. Our engineers are experienced with the challenges of narrow back-to-back terrace layouts, tight access for boiler replacements, and the kind of aging iron pipework that most plumbers avoid. We offer genuine competitive pricing in Oldham — not just cheap, but fair — because we know cost is a real consideration for many households here. Most boiler repairs are fixed on the first visit thanks to the extensive stock of parts we carry.

What's Included in Your Oldham Wet Room
Every wet room we install in Oldham is a complete project — we don't just waterproof and leave the rest to you. Our team handles everything from floor preparation to the final shower fitting.
- Floor preparation and levelling
- Professional tanking / waterproofing system
- Centre or linear floor drain fitted
- Anti-slip floor tiles supplied and laid
- Wall tiling or waterproof wall panels
- Thermostatic shower, head and controls
- Glass screen or walk-in panel fitted
- All plumbing and electrical connections
Why Tanking is Non-Negotiable
A wet room without professional waterproofing is the most common cause of water damage in bathrooms. Water finds every gap — around the drain, pipe penetrations, corners, and tile joints. Without tanking, it reaches the timber joists, plasterboard, and eventually the ceiling below.
Two-coat liquid tanking membrane
Applied to all floors and walls, filling every micro-gap before tiling.
Reinforced corners and pipe penetrations
The most common leak points — sealed with tanking tape and extra membrane layers.
Professional-grade drainage system
Centre or linear drain set at the correct gradient so all water drains, not pools.
Compatible with underfloor heating
We can incorporate UFH within the build if required — no extra trades needed.
Wet Room Styles for Oldham Homes
From accessible conversions to luxury spa wet rooms — we design and build them all in OL1-OL9.
Contemporary Minimalist
Large-format porcelain tiles, frameless glass, and a linear drain for a sleek, spa-like look. Very popular in new builds and modern semis.
Traditional Wet Room
Classic wall and floor tile combinations with a more enclosed feel. Suits period properties in Oldham where bold modern minimalism doesn't fit the aesthetic.
Accessible Wet Room
Fully level-access with grab rails, fold-down shower seat, contrasting floor tiles, and hand-held shower. Compliant with Part M and Lifetime Homes standards.
Luxury Spa Wet Room
Underfloor heating, rainfall ceiling head, body jets, steam option, and premium stone or large-format tiles. The premium end of our offering.

Tanking & Waterproofing
The floor and walls are prepared, the drain is positioned, and a professional-grade tanking membrane is applied across all surfaces, joints, and corners.
Tiling & Fixtures
Anti-slip floor tiles are laid to the correct fall gradient toward the drain. Wall tiles or panels go up, then the shower, screen, and fixtures are fitted.
Test & Handover
We run a full water test, check all joints and connections, seal everything, and walk you through the finished wet room before we leave.
