Wallboards in shower cubicles instead of tiles

Yep, they are very good. Ours are in artificial marble and look as good as the day they were installed, which must be at least ten years ago.

We had them in the whole of the bathroom in an artificial marble . Still love them .

I was told that there can be problems if your walls aren’t absolutely straight, the water can get behind them.

This put me off and we had tiles when we redid our bathroom.

All your positive replies has made me think!

We had our bath taken out and a shower cubicle put in where the bath was. We have these shower boards in aqua colour and I am very impressed with them.

We were advised by our builders to put this into a new en-suite for our DD new Bed Room as teenagers just walk out and don't clean them.
Still in very good condition.

They’re brilliant. So easy to keep clean. I will never go back to a tiled shower cubicle.

Yes our son and daughter in law had them when they had a new bathroom, as others have said they are so much easier to care for than tiles.

They have come a long way in design. Artificial marble & stone, look the business, loads of different colours. As long as they are fitted well, they are completely waterproof.
At least you won’t have to come on here for ideas how to keep your grout clean 😂

I moved house 2 months ago to the job already done by the previous owner. I detested my old bathroom and shower cubicle trying to keep the grout looking respectable.

I love my new bathroom and 2 months down the line I still have a little flutter of excitement when I walk into it. I shower every morning and just give the shower walls a swipe down with a squeegee each time.

So pleased to read the positive feedback.
I have been contemplating the wallboards for my walk in shower.
The grouting is now a problem as I cannot keep it in top condition.
Thank you to those replying.

We've since moved and are in the process of replacing this as we loved it

We went for a darker colour in the actual shower and a lighter colour on the walls in our ensuite.

Hope this helps.

They're great woodenspoon, so easy to clean and look fabulous.

Lovely. Thanks for the replies, it’s very helpful. We will go with it. Our fitter recommended them but it’s nice to get unbiased opinions, we are looki g at Wetwall from Wickes,

My sister has just had a new bathroom. She has them, they look fantastic.

Yes, we have them and they've been great. Probably had them for at least 15 years too and not a single issue. Maintenance free, much easier to clean than tiles.

Hi woodenspoon, yes we're on our second lot of shower boards, nothing wrong with the first ones, we had them over fifteen years, just changed the colour scheme. They are indeed waterproof and there is no grout to clean. I just go over them with a Vax getting out of the shower, so a lot less work
