Make a clean sheet of shower

Low-cost waterproof Wetwalls are ideal for sprucing up bathrooms and en-suites and are so easy to fit

I get asked about Wetwall all the time. It is a fantastic alternative to tiles – or if you just want a waterproof surface in your bathroom which you can fit yourself on a budget.

Tiles are great but always remember they are not the only solution when it comes to waterproofing a bathroom wall, especially if you are only doing a shower enclosure in an en-suite where there is no bath.

Wetwall sheets are a great alternative and come in such a huge range that there really is something to suit all types of bathrooms, en-suites and shower rooms.

Before you start waterproofing a bathroom, make sure you have a look at what Wetwall has to offer to suit your needs.

They will also give you any DIY advice you need to keep you right for tackling this job, which anyone can do, even with the most basic of DIY skills.

Wetwall is especially costeffective and is therefore a good product to use when you are on a budget.

You only need to waterproof a shower area, fit the shower tray and then the shower screen.

The shower is, after all, the only area of the room that needs to be waterproof. The rest of the bathroom walls can simply be painted, saving you a small fortune on materials and labour.

And don’t let old, unsightly tiles put you off using Wetwall – you can use it in bathrooms which have already been tiled – without having to go to the trouble of removing all of the original tiles.

If your existing tiles are sound and well stuck to the wall, all you need to do is simply give them a clean to remove any soap or slime then leave them to dry.

Then simply stick the Wetwall sheets – which are similar in size to plasterboard – on top of the existing tiles using a waterproof grab adhesive such as No More Nails and that’s it. There really is no messing around and no other products are needed.

Then you simply put your feet up and wait for the adhesive to set. After a few hours you can start fitting the shower screen.

And there’s no need to worry about the ongoing maintenance of Wetwall –it is practically zero.

As Wetwall has no grout, all you need to do is give it a wipe with a towel after using the shower to get rid of soap marks.

9 Tips for Better Copywriting

By -
 We all learned how to write in school, but in advertising, there are some simple techniques that experienced writers use to convey messages with greater impact and brevity.  Without being too tutorial, you’ll find these 9 tips quite handy when writing your next sales letter, brochure or web page. Avoid the wimpy verbs—is and be. These “do-little” verbs only occupy space and state that something exists.  So don’t write “There is one simple omission that can transform a sentence from boring to brilliant.”  Do write “One simple omission can transform a sentence from boring to brilliant.” Similarly, avoid “We will be running the new program from our Dallas office.”  Instead, opt for “We will run the new program from our Dallas office.”  Place the longest item at the end of a series.  Start with the simple and work toward the complex.  It’s less confusing and makes a more memorable ending to the sentence.  If you have a series like “He was always...

Really Communicate To Your Website Visitors

By -
 This article might be a bit different than you've come to expect from a webmaster-related article. The reason is that, in my opinion, it is a facet of the internet many people don't really think about. And that is communication. But, by communication I mean more than just talking or writing. Read on... What is Communication? Communication is defined simply as the transferring of an idea or concept from one point to another with full duplication on the receiving side. This last component is one often forgotten. So, a full one-way communication would be Fred has an idea about a widget. He propels that idea across space to Ted. Ted receives the communication, understands it, and has full duplication on his end of the exact concept Fred was thinking about that widget. Now, a full two-way communication would be the above process, but with the addendum that Ted thereby acknowledge Fred for his communication, sending the acknowledgement across space to Fred, at which point Fred recei...

3 Mistakes to Absolutely Avoid in a 1031/TIC Exchange

By -
 We've all made bad decisions in the past. Don't you just hate to hear "I told you so" from your friends and family? Or, maybe you catch yourself saying "If only I'd have..."? Personally, I'm one of those people who prefers to learn from someone else's mistakes.  If you're at all like me, and you have thought about doing a 1031 exchange into a tenant in common (TIC) property, take note. You can avoid making the 3 Major Mistakes that others wished they knew before leaping from the frying pan into the fire! Before I let you in on the secrets, let me briefly explain what a 1031 exchange into a tenant in common property is. It's a fairly well-kept secret in and of itself. A 1031 exchange is when an investment property owner sells his current property and exchanges it for a "like-kind" property of equal or greater value. By doing so, he defers the payment of capital gains tax and the consequences of recaptured depreciation. By exchan...
