View Accredited FittersHow a New Bathroom Adds Value to Your Cold Hesledon Home
A well-fitted bathroom is consistently cited by estate agents as one of the home improvements most likely to increase property value and buyer appeal. In Cold Hesledon's property market, a tired, dated bathroom can actually deter buyers — while a clean, functional, professionally installed one makes a strong impression at every viewing.
En-suite additions, wet room conversions, and accessibility upgrades can each add measurable value. But even a modest refresh — new sanitaryware, retiling, and updated fixtures — can transform the feel of a room without a full structural project.

Waterproofing and Tanking — Wet Rooms and Showers
Tanking refers to the application of a continuous waterproof membrane across floor and wall surfaces before tiling. It is essential in wet rooms (where there is no shower enclosure or tray) and recommended in any shower area. Without correct tanking, water penetrates tile joints over time and causes damage to the structural elements behind.
The area behind tiled walls within a shower enclosure should be waterproofed even with a shower tray. The tray itself is the primary waterproof barrier on the floor, but the walls above it are vulnerable to water ingress at joints and fixings. A liquid-applied waterproof membrane behind the tiles provides the necessary protection.
A wet room conversion involves removing the existing shower or bath, preparing the floor to a fall towards a linear or point drain, applying full tanking to floor and walls, and then tiling over the waterproof membrane. The floor must be structurally adequate to support the drain installation. A fitter with specific wet room experience is essential for this type of project.
Liquid-applied polyurethane or cement-based tanking systems are the most commonly used products in bathroom wet areas. Sheet membranes are used in some applications. The choice depends on the substrate type and the manufacturer's tile adhesive compatibility. A qualified Bathroom Fitters will select a system appropriate for your specific bathroom.
