Bath Panel

Hi All,

We have bought a steel bath and were originally planning on creating an MDF bath panel and tiling it using our wall tiles. We really dont want a plasticy looking bath panel.

Just wondering what bath panels you have?

If they are tiled, how is it done to ensure the wall tile pattern flows to the bath panel?

    I built a frame and used marine ply attached to the frame, then stuck tiles onto it. The lines follow through on mine but I did make a panel at the tap end and instead of grout used mastic which was the same colour as the grout so I could cut it and remove it if I need access to the taps, it is attached by magnetic clips. At the other end of the bath I also made a removable panel with access to storage space for bits and bobs.
  • Thanks diable! I love the idea of the storage part! Do you have a picture by any chance?

    I will see if I can dig something out, give a little time.
