Beautiful shower/bath area!! Can you tell me the size please? - Our home plan has a free standing tub (for me!) and a nice size shower (for my husband). We haven't broken ground....but will soon. Is it a major challenge to combine the 2. Our MB is a nice size. The tub and the shower on the the same side (south side of the room). I'm not an architect/builder....but it seems doable to me. Your thoughts woud be most appreciated. »

How do you appropriately float the wet area floor to assure draining but have the tub on a flat surface? - We did this same concept in a smaller space - 6x7. However the contractor completely messed up the shower floor and I have standing water under the tub and near the shower side. I've spoken with three different contractors regarding how to correct - their concern is keeping the free standing tub on a flat surface but still making the wet area appropriately drain. Help. »
Carolina V. Gentry, RID Thank you for your question!
That is a question for the architect, but we always assure that there is a slope and specify a small tile that can follow the slope without cracking.

When the shower is in use, does the tub also get wet? I'm trying to understand the "wet room" concept. I would rarely use the tub so I don't know if I'm creating more cleaing work for myself with this concept. »
Carolina V. Gentry, RID Thank you for your question!
The shower is directly across from the tub on the opposite wall, so the tub does not get wet.

Custom Home Planning Center When I do wet rooms I use a ceiling supply and a free standing tub with no overflow for the best soaks. This allows you to add the tub at any time if it doesn't fit your initial budget.

Carolina V. Gentry, RID That's the beauty of design isn't it? It's in the eye of the beholder... You would also have to see the rest of the space. There are two vanities and another wall you can't see, along with the adjoining bedroom with lots of matching wood. It's a great tie in.

3. Be careful when selecting mosaic tile. Pick out a mosaic tile that offers at least 95 percent contact from the tile to the backer board. You need that contact from the wall to the tile! You don't want to trust the glue on a sheet of tile.Here is a wonderful example of mosaic tile installed by Carolina Gentry. I would bet that the tile is a paper- or film-faced mosaic, since the installation looks seamless.
The world's finest hammams (Turkish for steam bath) all seem to have smaller tiles. I have been researching them for months and have yet to find out why this is, but if the wheel isn't broken, don't fix it. There's lots of heat and moisture in any steam shower, of course, and small tile in these world-class hammams may help with expansion and contraction. Tip: Look for a paper- or film-faced glass tile. This will allow you to get at least 95 percent contact from the tile to the setting material on the back side of the tile.
14. How to Choose Tile for a Steam ShowerSteam might feel soothing on your skin, but it's much more invasive and damaging to a shower than water. That makes choosing materials extra difficult. Tile size, material and layout for a steam showere are all discussed in this comprehensive ideabook.
small mosaic tile I like and I like the "juxtapose" of the large plain floor tiles but I would have chosen something more natural/neutral to have more continuity.
Yes, that's correct! There is an enclosed wet area with a tub & shower.
