[timlee77]

Hi all I've been asked to price sorting out a wet room floor the water is running towards the door and near the toilet and some into drain from the pics I've got the fall not right or not there! It's a room for wheel chair users. Any advice ? Would u rip up all and re tank and re do?? Ill upload pics

Personally I don't see you have any choice (I'll stand corrected) unless I've missed somethink....

If the levels are out then as whitebeam has said.


As a wet room for a disabled person I'm guessing there is no screen or curtain so the whole floor area would have to have a great fall towards the gulley to stop any water running towards the door and WC but still not hinder the person in the wheel chair, in such a small room that will be a little difficult?

Also once the problem of the levels is sorted would a larger gulley help and if the waste pipe from the gulley is inch and a half maybe increase it to 2"?


Also, could a secondary gulley help you out?

Rip out, re form falls (can't see any myself) and retile

Have you checked the trap in the floor drain?
If theres a fall towards the door then its a total rip out.

You cannot tile like that straight to a drain with that size tile and not have enveloping.. if it was a linear drain then fair enough but it needs to fall from more than one direction to fall into a small drain... is it tiled onto a former.. ?

there are no envelopes you can see hes just tilted 2 tiles it will need ripped up and redone completely imo
