Wet Wall Panels or Tiles?
Panels have far fewer joints than tiles, so there is less grout to clean or go grey. Tiles give more choice of pattern and suit curved or awkward spaces. We tell you honestly which one suits your room.
Large sheets with few joints
Quicker to fit than floor-to-ceiling tiling
Tiles still better for patterns and curves
What the Panels Are Made Of
Not all panels are the same. Some are solid PVC or acrylic that does not soak up water. Cheaper laminated board needs well-sealed edges, so we choose the right type for a shower.

Joints, Corners and Sealing Done Properly
Panels are only as good as the joints. We seal the corners, the edges and where the pipes come through. A little silicone check now and then keeps the wall watertight.

Fitting Over Old Walls
Panels need a flat, sound wall behind them. Old tiles, crumbling plaster or damp must be dealt with first. We check what is behind the surface before we recommend panels.

Wall Panels in Scottish Homes
Panels make particular sense in homes where bathrooms are small, steamy or hard to keep dry.
Tenement flats: Many bathrooms have no window. Fewer joints means less mould to scrub.
Ex-council semis and four-in-a-blocks: Original tiling on uneven walls can be replaced with a fresh surface.
Solid stone and old plaster walls: We check the wall before fitting.
Any bathroom: An extractor fan keeps the room dry, and the panels do the rest.

Wet Wall Panel Questions, Answered
Call nowAre wall panels really waterproof?
The panels themselves are. The joints, corners and trims are where water can get in, so we seal them with care and use the right sealant.
Are panels cheaper than tiles?
The cost depends on the room size, your choice of fittings and any changes to the plumbing or electrics. We’ll talk through the work and provide a written quote.
Do panels look cheap?
Good large panels in stone, marble or plain finishes look neat. The joints and trims make the difference, which is why we fit them carefully.
Can you fit panels over old tiles?
Sometimes. It depends on how flat and sound the tiles are. We often remove them or board over them so the panels sit flat.
How do I clean wet wall panels?
Warm water and a soft cloth or a gentle bathroom cleaner. Avoid harsh scouring pads, which can mark the surface.
Can I mix panels and tiles?
Yes. Many people have panels in the shower and a tile on the floor or a feature wall.
Do I still need an extractor fan?
Yes. Panels cope with water but the room still needs ventilation to clear steam.
