Wet Room in Sutton

A wet room is a level-access bathroom where the entire floor is waterproofed and gently graded to a drain, so the shower area has no tray, step or upstand — it typically requires altering the floor structure to create a fall to drainage, along with full tanking of the floor and walls.

In Sutton, that covers Cheam, Carshalton, Wallington, Belmont, North Cheam. Sutton is a residential outer-London borough with a traditional High Street and well-established suburbs across Cheam, Carshalton and Wallington, offering a mix of interwar family housing and period properties close to Carshalton's historic ponds and village core, within reach of our Croydon and Surrey teams.

Property styles in Sutton

The borough has a strong stock of 1920s and 1930s semis and detached houses across Cheam, North Cheam and Belmont, alongside Victorian and Edwardian houses in the older parts of Carshalton and Wallington. Rear and side-return extensions and loft conversions are common on the semi-detached stock typical of the area.

Planning considerations

Sutton Council (London Borough of Sutton) is the local planning authority. Carshalton village and parts of Cheam and Wallington are conservation areas with a number of listed buildings around the historic ponds, which affects alterations to visible elevations and materials. We confirm the position for individual properties at feasibility stage.

  3. 03

    Forming the fall to the drain, whether by building up a screed or altering the floor structure, and connecting to the waste.

FAQs

Wet Room in Sutton: FAQs

Do you provide wet room across all of Sutton?

Yes, we cover the SM1, SM2, SM3, SM5 and SM6 postcode areas in full, including Cheam, Carshalton, Wallington, Belmont, North Cheam.

Can any bathroom be converted to a wet room?

Most ground-floor bathrooms can, but upper floors depend on how much joist depth and ceiling height is available below to form the drainage fall without excessive structural work — this is confirmed on survey.

Do wet rooms need a shower screen?

Not necessarily — some wet rooms are left fully open, while others use a glass screen or partial divider to contain splash. It's a design choice rather than a structural requirement.

Do you cover Carshalton and Wallington as well as Sutton town centre?

Yes, we work across the SM1, SM2, SM3, SM5 and SM6 postcode areas, including Sutton town centre, Cheam, Carshalton, Wallington and Belmont.
