For the installation of wetrooms at the Grade II Listed Lalit London hotel, Schlüter-Systems were selected to undertake the job.
EPR Architects, leading on the project, elected to utilise Schlüter’s complete wetroom system to provide secure waterproofing and appropriate drainage for each of the floor-level showers in the en-suite wetrooms.
As one of Schlüter-Systems’ grandest projects of 2016/17, the Lalit London, goes up against a suite of worthy competitors in the ‘Listed Building (Over £5 million)’ category of the AJ Retrofit Awards on 13 September.
Lalit London is a luxury 70-room boutique hotel that fuses the best of Indian and British culture and is the 13th hotel of the Lalit Suri Hospitality Group, and the first based outside of India.
Waterproofing is an essential provision for any building that incorporates areas subjected to high levels of moisture; many of the materials available to back tiles are merely water-resistant and therefore require additional finishing processes to prevent the ingress of damp.
