I'm building a new house, and the space that works in the floorpan for the brewery is upstairs (right off the home theater ). I had tried to get the builder to put in a floor drain and tile, but they're not willing to do something that custom. I was however able to get them to rough in for a drain. So, when we move in the brewery room will have a non-sloped floor and carpet (that they think they'll need for the inspector, but I'll immediately rip out).
What's the best way to finish it off after the fact? I don't really think sloping the whole floor is necessary as it's a 14x12 room, and the wet side of things is confined to a 6'x4' wide section. I'm thinking of using vinyl plank wood-look flooring for the majority of the floor (e.g. https://www.homedepot.com/p/LifePro...-Flooring-19-53-sq-ft-case-I114813L/300461633), but I'm trying to figure out what to do about the wet area and the drain.
For a 6'x4' space, would I just use thinset to build the slop to the drain? Does anyone know of options other than tile that would work well for this kind of space?
