Waterproofing Products for Wet Rooms & Bathrooms

Waterproofing is sometimes referred to as tanking and is an essential part of any wet room or bathroom installation. You can choose to waterproof the shower area of your bathroom, or you can tank the entire room to create a wet room. A wet room is room that is completely waterproofed using waterproof boarding, membranes, and adhesives to form a complete waterproof barrier. Here at Tile Fix Direct we often see people choosing to tank the entire room, making water leaks and damage a thing of the past.
To effectively waterproof a wet room or a tiled bathroom, you'll need to make sure that both the floors and walls are tanked to prevent water getting in. You'll need products like waterproofing membrane, waterproofing coating, waterproofing matting, primer, and waterproof sealing tape. All of these products are available individually, but general waterproofing kits and tanking systems from brands such as BAL and Ardex are also available to make your life even easier.
There are other hidden benefits to tanking or area that go beyond the waterproofing nature of the project. If water gets in behind your top layer it may start to rot plywood or plaster which is scarcely ever treated for water ingress. By adding a waterproof layer between these substrates and your tiles you prevent condensation, damp, and water from ever reaching these areas. This will prevent the spread of damp and inhibit any mould growth.
Another great benefit that people often overlook is that waterproofing a room also provides extra insulation, lowering your heating costs. This can also make underfloor heating systems more effective too in bathrooms and wet rooms. Here at Tile Fix Direct we stock an extensive range of top quality products and accessories for waterproofing. If you are looking for more advice on how to tank your wet room or bathroom, please see our Wet Room Installation Advice Page.
