The Ultimate Guide to Shower Panels
What Are Shower Panels?
Shower panels, also known as shower wall panels or bathroom cladding, are large sheets used to cover bathroom walls—especially in and around shower enclosures. Made from waterproof materials like PVC or laminate, they provide a sleek, seamless, and grout-free finish that’s both practical and stylish.
At Floors to Walls, we offer a wide range of shower panels designed to suit every taste, budget, and bathroom type.
Why Choose Shower Panels Over Tiles?
Traditional bathroom tiles may be common, but shower panels offer numerous advantages:
✅ Faster Installation – No need to grout or wait for drying. Many panels can be fitted in just a day.
✅ Grout-Free – Panels fit together seamlessly, making cleaning easier and reducing mould build-up.
✅ 100% Waterproof – Ideal for showers, wet rooms, and splash zones.
✅ Cost-Effective – Fewer materials, lower labour costs, and long-lasting performance.
✅ Stylish Variety – From modern marble effects to contemporary sparkles and concrete finishes.
