Traditionally, tiles have been a bathroom staple. Relatively cheap to buy and available in a large range of styles and colours, it is easy to understand why tiles are popular. However, are they the best option for your bathroom and could wall panels be a better alternative?
Let's kick off with a little disclaimer. There isn't actually a right or wrong answer here. It very much depends on your individual project needs and budget.
What are wall panels?
Bathroom wall panels are waterproof sheets which can be attached to your wall using an adhesive sealant. They are designed to protect your bathroom wall from water in the same way that a tile would.
Shower wall panels are available as a suit including trim, sealants, etc. That means you have everything you need to fit.
What are bathroom tiles?
Bathroom tiles come in many shapes, sizes and materials. Often made of ceramic, glass, marble, or natural stone, tiles can be a relatively inexpensive way of improving the look of your bathroom space while at the same time, protecting the walls.
Shower Wall Panel Benefits:
Shower panels are easier to install than tiles, are easy to clean and look amazing.
They have a similar appearance to bathroom tiles with one important benefit. Shower wall panels do not suffer from grout issues. Grout doesn't always age well and can attract mould growth. Shower panels on the other hand are both clean and cost-effective.
In some cases, shower wall panels can even be fitted over your existing tiles.

Bathroom Tile Benefits:
Bathroom tiles can be inexpensive as tiles come in a broad range of shapes and sizes. However, this is not always the case. Tiles do allow a greater level of freedom creatively due to the breadth of options and colours.
Tiling a bathroom is definitely a DIY job that you may be able to tackle yourself making it a popular option.
Maintenance is likely to be much higher on a tiled bathroom as the grouted areas will need to be kept dirt and mould free.
