Another shower question.

[Water Rat.]

Well! Himself has pulled out my shower and fitted a new tray. The previous shower had formica walls etc. - indestructable - that has gone too, it was vile. I know he knows what he is doing - but what should go on the walls to line it now? Not sure I fancy tiles, I think they might crack if there is a bump, what do you all have on yours?

Vinyl flooring. Cheap, lots of patterns available, easy to cut and fit, simply glued in place, indestructible, and easy to clean.

Tiles - never had one crack or fall out yet, despite a few bumps along the way.

Tiles too. I used mosaics which are great if you enjoy grouting! (I spoke to one person who finds if therapeutic, should have got them to do it!) Used flexible adhesive & grout, same stuff we used on the boat my family did 10 years ago and they're all still on the wall.

Tiles also - with dolphins on!

You can get those acrylic tile sheets if your worried about ceramic, but ours have been on for over six years now!

Had them 4 years, totally unmarked, not cheap though.

My boat bathroom is done out in plastic T & g panels. I think that they measure up at about 25cm wide and 2m long. It actually looks quite good. I think that the T&G is good enough to ensure a water resistant join. THe boat came with it but when i added a wardrobe taking out the corner of the bathroom I needed to buy more panels. I found some in B&Q and it cost £27 for 4.

Any old tiles you like....Just add PVA to the adhesive and grout to stop any fine cracking.

Ceramic tiles, stuck on with silicone. Stuck like the proverbial.

Neken tiles They are plastic with a polystyrene backing. Light; cut with scissors; no condensation and warm to touch. Been fine for 17yrs

Clever idea IMHO.

Ceramic tiles fixed in 1992. Still fine although design of tiles looks a bit out of date now.

Vinyl flooring (cushionflor) and extend it across the flooras well (with overlaps from the walls) to create a wetroom.

Thank you all - I am off to find a covering today. Julie
