If you’ve ever tiled a bathroom, you’ll know what a painstaking task it is – or what an expensive task it is if you’ve previously paid a contractor to do the job for you. Hence why you may be on the hunt for an alternative to tiling.
Which is why today I wanted to share Showerwall – a new innovative brand I discovered recently. When I say “discovered”, what I mean is they started to follow me on Instagram and after a look down their feed, I was intrigued by the concept and decided to find out more.
Manufactured in the UK – hurray! – Showerwall is a great concept for those looking for a quicker, easier and more cost-effective alternative to tiling
In a nutshell, Showerwall is a waterproof bathroom panelling system which fits together, sticking to the wall surface or even over existing tiles.
Showerwall is a natural-inspired surface, delivered through a smart waterproof system.
With a hassle-free installation, which saves money on fitting costs, the brand explains that the material can be fitted by anyone who is DIY competent (OK, I’d have to ask my Dad). Simply cut the panels – which are lightweight and flexible, in a range of sizes – to fit, and fix to the wall.

Mineral

Featuring Molten to Quartz, Shimmer, and Varnish, the choice is vast. Varnish, for example, brings a fresh and modern feel to a bathroom space, creating a feeling of space in even the smallest of rooms.

Having requested samples for myself to see in the flesh before I decided to share, I can vouch for not only the quality (it’s also worth noting the 15-year guarantee you get) but the life-like texture on certain designs.
When I’m at the point of renovating my bathroom in my future home, Showerwall is definitely a brand I’ll be returning to as an alternative to tiling. The only difficulty might be deciding which design I love the most.

Thank you, very interesting! I hadn’t heard of this product and it’s certainly one to explore.
Such a great idea, I’ve just ordered some samples for my bathroom renovation!
