How do I build a wet room? I am opening a beauty salon and already have a shower.?

Answer 1

Without any details, or strictly knowing your thoughts about, or definition of "WET"

A salon experience might be best experienced by the use of a STEAM room or Sauna. WET...in the case of a Shower, might best relate to a COOLING off after 30 minutes of "Sweating"

Are you intending a high humidity? waterfall effects used as meditative side effects for sitting in a room in a salon? An actual Shower, as being some inducement to your end bill, when one might take a shower at home?

In any and all cases it would have to be resistant enough in its walls to avoid intrusion of moisture and WET to walls exterior to the immediate room. AND yes would likely involve codes, etc. Liability insurance perhaps. etc etc etc

Answer 2

Start by checking with your Building Code Office. Commercial businesses often are required to have work done by licensed pros. Doing the work yourself without knowing the procedures could delay your opening date by needing to redo work. Businesses are not like doing work on your home.

Answer 3

Go to Lowes or Home depot they can order water resistant drywall. You may wish to use metal studs and vinyl flooring or tile is water resistant and provides easy cleanup. Make sure electrical outlets have ground fault interuptors so you dont get shocked.
