Bathroom walls aren’t complete without tiles. These traditional materials are every homeowner’s primary choice. However, there is an excellent alternative to tile that we’re sure you’ll love — shower panels!
Shower panels are cost-effective, lightweight, easy to install and low-maintenance. Continue reading to learn what makes shower panels as great as tiles and why you should consider them for your bathroom remodel.
Fast Installation
Drilling, grinding, cutting and grouting aren’t necessary when installing shower panels, making them quicker and easier to install than tiles. Remodelers simply need to lay the panels on the wall, then use sealant on the edges. Shower panels do not require long hours to cure or dry, and they can be installed on top of old tiles.
Cost Efficiency
Shower panel installation requires less effort and time to install, so it can cost less than tile installation — especially since tile prices vary greatly. For instance, granite, marble and stone tiles are more expensive than shower panels. However, wall panels can actually perform as well as these tiles. Moreover, you only need a few panels to cover your entire bathroom. Shower panels have larger cut sizes than tiles, so it’s possible to save more on your remodel if you go with wall panels.
Mold Prevention
High-quality shower panels install seamlessly and do not require grout. Most mold colonies start in grouts because these recessed spaces are challenging to clean. Shower panels eliminate grout lines, so there’s nowhere for mold to grow.
Easy Maintenance
Shower panels have no grout lines that require deep cleaning. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are everything you’ll need to clean and maintain your bathroom walls.
