Create an open, waterproof bathing area with integrated shower, tile, drainage, and carefully planned bathroom features.
Wet Room Construction in Abbeville and Acadiana
A wet room uses a fully waterproofed area to create a more open shower or bathing space. Depending on the design, the shower and tub may share the same tiled area with minimal barriers between them.
Crain Builders provides wet room construction in Abbeville, Vermilion Parish, Lafayette Parish, and throughout Acadiana. We help homeowners plan wet rooms with appropriate drainage, waterproofing, tile, shower placement, glass, fixtures, ventilation, and surrounding bathroom features.
Because the room is designed to handle water across a larger area, proper construction details are essential.
Wet Room Features
A wet room may include:
- Open walk-in shower areas
- Integrated shower and tub zones
- Full-height tile
- Sloped shower floors
- Linear or point drains
- Frameless glass
- Built-in niches
- Shower seating
- Premium fixtures
- Waterproof wall and floor assemblies
- Ventilation improvements
- Heated or specialty flooring options
- Accessible entries
- Primary bathroom coordination
Waterproofing and Drainage
Waterproofing is one of the most important parts of wet room construction. The floor slope, drains, wall assemblies, transitions, penetrations, and tile installation all need to work together.
Crain Builders approaches the wet room as a complete system rather than simply installing tile across a larger bathroom area.
