How to Install Shower Panels

Installing shower panels in your bathroom is a straightforward home improvement project that can transform the look and functionality of your space. Here’s a simple step-by-step guide:

 

1: Prepare the Area.

Clear the shower area, remove old coverings, and ensure the wall is clean, dry, and smooth before installing shower panels.

 

2: Measure and Cut the Panels.

Measure the height and width of your shower area. Mark and cut the shower panels to fit, using a fine-tooth saw for precision.

3: Apply Adhesive.

Apply a high-quality, waterproof adhesive to the back of each panel. Spread it evenly, paying special attention to the edges.

4: Position the Panels.

Carefully place each panel on the wall, pressing firmly to ensure good adhesion. Use spacers if necessary to ensure panels are level and evenly spaced.

5: Seal the Joints.

Apply a waterproof silicone sealant along the joints and edges to prevent water from seeping behind the panels.

6: Allow to Set.

Let the adhesive and sealant cure according to the manufacturer’s instructions before using your shower.

Positives of Installing Shower Panels:
  • Quick Installation: Much faster to fit than traditional tiles, saving you time and effort.
  • Low Maintenance: Panels are easy to clean and don’t require grouting, reducing the risk of mold.
  • Modern Look: They offer a sleek, seamless finish that complements any bathroom style.

Updating your bathroom with shower panels is a practical and stylish upgrade that’s achievable for most DIY enthusiasts.
