Master Ensuite Wetroom Conversion

This is the second bathroom we completed for this Halstead family - having transformed their traditional family bathroom, they trusted us to create their dream master ensuite wetroom. The brief called for contemporary luxury with dramatic feature tiles, integrated lighting, and a seamless walk-in wetroom experience.

Through detailed 3D design planning, we created a stunning wetroom featuring Ca Pietra Nero Magnifique tiles in a spectacular bookmatched configuration. The bookmatching creates a mirror-image pattern in the infinity niche, amplified by IP67-rated recessed LED lighting in warm white, transforming the niche from functional storage into a spa-like feature wall.

Professional wetroom tanking and waterproofing was installed with a linear waste drainage system and proper floor falls. A half-height tiled wall with frameless glass panel defines the wetroom shower area whilst maintaining the open, spacious aesthetic. Bespoke Calypso oak furniture including a custom bench provides luxurious storage in traditional oak finish.

A traditional WC with ceramic waste pipe maintains period charm within the contemporary wetroom, whilst underfloor heating ensures year-round comfort. Every detail was meticulously executed from our Braintree showroom (12 minutes from Halstead), creating a luxury master ensuite wetroom that perfectly balances dramatic contemporary design with practical everyday functionality.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about luxury wetroom installations in Halstead

A luxury master ensuite wetroom typically takes 3-4 weeks from start to completion. This includes professional wetroom tanking and waterproofing, linear waste installation with proper falls, bespoke tile work including bookmatched feature walls, underfloor heating installation, custom oak furniture fitting, and IP67 recessed lighting. The timeline ensures every detail is executed perfectly, with proper curing times for tanking systems and adhesives. During your consultation, we'll provide a detailed schedule for your wetroom project.
Ca Pietra Nero Magnifique tiles are premium Italian-designed porcelain with a stunning black marble aesthetic. We used bookmatched tiles creating a seamless mirror-image pattern in the infinity niche - a hallmark of luxury installations. The large format tiles (typically 600x1200mm or 900x900mm) reduce grout lines for a more luxurious appearance and easier cleaning. The porcelain construction provides superior water resistance compared to natural marble whilst maintaining the authentic aesthetic. Ca Pietra tiles are slip-resistant when properly installed, making them ideal for wetroom applications. We carefully plan tile layouts during the design phase to ensure the bookmatching creates maximum visual impact.
An infinity niche is a luxury wetroom feature - a recessed alcove with no visible frame, creating a 'floating' appearance in the tile work. The niche provides practical storage for toiletries whilst serving as a stunning design focal point. We integrated IP67-rated recessed LED lighting (fully waterproof and dust-proof) within the niche, creating warm ambient lighting that highlights the bookmatched Nero tiles beautifully. The warm white lighting transforms the niche from functional storage into a spa-like feature. IP67 rating ensures complete safety in the wetroom environment with no risk from water ingress. This level of detailed specification separates luxury wetrooms from standard installations and is a signature element we incorporate in high-end bathroom projects throughout Halstead and Essex.
Yes, Halstead is just 12 minutes from our Braintree showroom. We regularly work throughout the CO9 postcode area installing luxury wetrooms, including Greenstead Green, Sible Hedingham, Earls Colne, and surrounding villages. This master ensuite wetroom was for the same Halstead family whose traditional family bathroom we also installed - they trusted us to transform their second bathroom into a luxury wetroom sanctuary. Our team knows the area well and the mix of property types throughout Halstead and the Braintree district. We offer free home consultations where we visit your property to assess suitability for wetroom conversion and discuss your luxury wetroom vision.
Professional wetroom tanking is a waterproofing membrane system that prevents water penetration into the structural floor and walls. Unlike traditional bathrooms with shower trays, wetrooms have water flowing directly over the floor, making tanking absolutely critical. We use premium tanking systems applied in multiple coats to floors, walls, and particularly vulnerable areas like corners and pipe penetrations. The tanking creates a continuous waterproof barrier before tiles are installed. We also create proper floor falls (typically 1:80 gradient) directing water to the linear waste. This prevents pooling and ensures efficient drainage. Professional tanking takes 2-3 days to apply and cure properly - shortcuts here lead to catastrophic water damage later. Our installations include full guarantees because we never compromise on wetroom tanking quality. Every wetroom we install undergoes flood testing before tiling to verify complete waterproof integrity.
"We couldn't be more delighted with the work done by the Bowman's Bathroom team. We had two bathrooms done at the same time and they were faultless from concept to completion and made the process pain-free and even enjoyable! The installation team were exceptionally skilled and helpful. They never stopped working and got the whole thing done much quicker than we expected and the final result is stunning. Thank you Jamie, Dan and Craig and everyone who helped make the process seamless."
