Tub and Shower Walls
FIND AN INSTALLER
MirroFlex Tub and Shower Walls are ideal for wet areas. These robust wall surfaces are an attractive, economical alternative to traditional ceramic tiling. In fact, MirroFlex Tub and Shower Walls are a home renovator's dream thanks to their durable, non-porous, grout-free properties and easy installation and maintenance.
They are suitable for both residential and commercial environments with wet-area wall surfaces including shower recesses and laundry walls. The standard kit includes two tub side panels with folding corners (adjustable size; fits most 30 to 40 tubs, one 60 wide tub back panel), and finishing trim for side panels (can be easily cut to size with scissors). Additional finishes and sizes may be available.
Myths about Tub and Shower Wall Panels
If you have decided to step away from traditional ceramic tiling for your tub and shower, then tub and shower wall panels are an affordable and attractive alternative that are ideal for wet areas.
Whether you choose these panels for a residential or commercial space, you will find they carry many advantages, but also have the baggage of a few myths you will need to contend with as well.
Myth Number One
The only tub and shower wall panels you can purchase are made of acrylic material. While this is a common material, it isn't the best to choose for your tub and shower because acrylic can be extremely thin, and it can actually expand and contract while you are working with it which makes it much harder to properly install.
MirroFlex tub and shower walls are textured and have a very decorative and aesthetically pleasing surface which makes them a smart choice for many remodels. MirroFlex is durable and design flexible and is available in several different size options.
It is also the ideal option for anyone that is looking to install the panels themselves because it makes for a relatively easy and straightforward DIY home renovation project.
Myth Number Two
You will need special tools in order to complete the installation yourself. This is not the case at all. You can purchase a standard kit which includes the panels with folding corners and the finishing trim for the side panels. The sizes are adjustable, and you can easily cut the trim for the side panels to the appropriate size for the bathtub or shower with just a pair of scissors.
Myth Number Three
You cannot find wall panels that don't require grout when you are working with a custom sized shower or tub. Again, these wall panels can be adjusted to the appropriate size and are non-porous and grout free which makes installation and maintenance of the tub and shower wall panels quick and easy.
Tips for Choosing the Best Wall Panels for the Bathroom
When you are deciding on tub and shower walls for the bathroom, there are a few points you will want to take into consideration before making a purchase. First, the walls need to be made of a water-resistant material since they will be utilized in a place that has a lot of contact with water.
Next, you will want to find a style and design that you love that can seamlessly fit into your décor and offers the aesthetic you are looking to achieve. You may also want to consider the maintenance that will be required after the panels are installed, as well as the initial installation process and how easy or difficult it may be to complete the project on your own.
Finally, the materials you choose for the tub and shower walls should be durable and long-lasting as well as non-porous, so no water will leak in under the panels and cause a mold or mildew problem or other extensive damage to your bathroom. The easiest tub and shower walls to install in the bathroom require no grout and are easily adjustable to fit the size you need for the tub and shower surround.
Advantages of MirroFlex Tub and Shower Walls
As previously mentioned, there are many advantages to using MirroFlex tub and shower walls for your next bathroom renovation project:
Affordable:
installing a tub and shower surround is a very cost-effective way to update or remodel the bathroom. It is a simple installation process that you can do yourself and you can save what you would have spent on a contractor.
Easy Installation:
installing these walls is a lot easier than putting up tile in the bathroom and can be done easily yourself if you take the time to read the instructions and make sure everything is done properly.
Minimal Maintenance:
maintaining these MirroFlex walls are also a lot easier than tile and grout. However, if a part of the wall is damaged the whole unit will need to be replaced. Due to the durability of these walls, though, that is very unlikely.
