A properly waterproofed wet room for Eyemouth
Eyemouth is the busiest fishing port we cover, with a tightly packed harbour-side housing stock and serious salt-air exposure. That changes how installs are specified — corrosion-resistant fittings, careful flue placement and frost-protection planning all matter more than they do inland.
Many holiday lets near the harbour want pre-season annual servicing locked in early. For wet room installations, that changes the survey, specification or working sequence before price is agreed.
Wet room projects in Eyemouth begin below the visible finish: joist direction, floor falls, drainage route, ventilation and waterproofing determine whether the room performs. We coordinate the plumbing, tanking, electrical zones and finishes as one programme. Accessible layouts can include level entry, support positions and easy-clean choices without making the room feel institutional. This page is specifically for rural owners who need to plan a level-access room with dependable drainage and waterproofing.

Before you book: local practical answers
Do you cover Coldingham and St Abbs?+
Yes — both are part of our Eyemouth round, including holiday-let servicing along the coast.
Does salt air really damage boilers in Eyemouth?+
Salt air doesn't damage indoor boiler internals, but it does eat external flue components, condensate routing and outdoor pipework if you spec the wrong materials. We use corrosion-resistant components as standard for TD14 jobs.
What should be checked before quoting wet room installations at this Eyemouth property?+
Many holiday lets near the harbour want pre-season annual servicing locked in early. We confirm that point on site, then match the wet room installations specification to the actual building and access rather than assuming every TD14 address is alike.
Is this page aimed at rural owners?+
Yes. The recommendations prioritise rural owners who need to plan a level-access room with dependable drainage and waterproofing. If the building or occupancy differs, the survey is where we adjust the plan.
Does an accessible wet room need to look clinical?+
No. Support, seating and level access can be integrated into a warm residential design.
Can a wet room be fitted upstairs?+
Yes, when joists, deflection, former depth and waste fall are assessed before the layout is fixed.
