Default vinyl welding wetroom floor and walls

The problem is that it can go brittle around welds, and the corners are one
place where this happens. It may of course have improved since my day, but
it looks a nice idea until it gets a lot of cleaning and begins to age.

I've been watching youtube videos of hot welding vinyl flooring in
wetrooms.

There's some expensive kit used, and it seems skilled, so may be a time to
get in an expert for a few hours work.

Could the vinyl go up the walls of a wet room instead of tiles?

Then instead of all the hassle of tiling and grouting everything could be
done in a few hours.

And I think this would be a lot cheaper than a conventional wetroom
like this one:

Is there any reason against doing this?

and where would i find someone good at welding vinyl?
