Creating a Stunning and Easy-to-Maintain Shower with Shiplap and a Panel System

🛁Covering your shower walls with shiplap and a panel system can give you the look of tile without the hassle of traditional tiling.

✨The panel system is laser-cut to resemble tiles, and once installed and grouted, it creates a seamless and sophisticated finish.

🔨Shiplap is installed on the shower walls first, providing a solid and durable base for the panel system.

🚿The shiplap is then covered with the panel system, which is lightweight and easy to handle. It is secured using adhesive and nails.

🧼The final step involves grouting the panel system to create realistic-looking tile joints. The result is a stunning shower that requires minimal maintenance.

Does the panel system require any special maintenance?

—No, the panel system is designed to be low-maintenance. Simply clean it with a mild soap and water solution.

Can the panel system be installed over existing tiles?

—Yes, the panel system can be installed over existing tiles. However, it is important to ensure that the surface is clean, dry, and in good condition.

Is shiplap waterproof?

—Shiplap itself is not fully waterproof, but it can withstand moisture when properly sealed and painted. Additionally, the panel system provides an extra layer of protection against water penetration.

Can I customize the panel system to match my desired tile pattern?

—The panel system comes in various designs and sizes, allowing you to choose a pattern that suits your style. However, customization options may vary depending on the manufacturer.

Is professional installation required for this project?

—While professional installation is recommended for the best results, experienced DIYers can also successfully install shiplap and the panel system following proper instructions and using the right tools.
