We recently completed two projects with wet rooms - distinctly different designs for distinctly different households!

Why do a wet room?

Wait… what is a wet room? Let’s start there! A wet room is a large tiled or otherwise waterproof area that can hold both the shower and bathtub, with glass doors or enclosure. 

Why a wet room? A wet room is a practical option to include both a freestanding tub and a shower in a relatively small bathroom. They can be a good fit for all members of the family - to allow for safe splashing for kids as well as a great option for a roll in or seated shower for older or impaired adults. They are great for busy households for ease of cleaning, and they look… amazing!

Rockwood Master Suite Addition

For our Rockwood Master Suite Addition project, a master suite addition for a growing family in Austin, when going through the design phase and listening to their vision for what they wanted with their addition, we presented floor plan options with a traditional master bath and an option with a wet room. The family liked the idea of a wet room for something original and different for the home. What they didn’t anticipate was what a hit it would be for the kids! In their Google review they noted “In the end, it's difficult to convey just how happy we are with the job done by TRS Build. Our family was quickly outgrowing the space, and the addition designed and built by TRS Build has given us some much needed breathing room. We now have a beautiful master bedroom and a sanctuary of a master bathroom that includes a walk in shower & tub area which our entire family (kids included) absolutely love. In fact, we look forward to family bath time because the wet room makes it so easy!!”
