Can you replace a bathroom panel (cladding)?

Hi, how easy is it to do this? One of the panels has a hole in it, I have seen some cladding but not sure if it can be done, TIA.

As you can see in the picture, I have tried to patch it up, it is a hole within a vertical panel, next to another panel, (the panels are not very wide)

Nice job!Are these panels around 250mm wide? If so, they sound like the common type of hollow plastic panel used for shower cubicles and similar? If so, they'll almost certainly be tongue-and-grooved together to provide some waterproofing between the joints. In which case I suspect it'll come down to what sealant was used in the T&G, and what adhesive was used to attach them to the wall. If it's silicone, there's a good chance you can prise one panel away from its neighbour. Quite a gamble, tho' - I think you need to be ready to replace a few if it goes pear-shaped.0

Jeepers_Creepers thank you so much for your time, I will take note of what you have said. They are quite narrow so that would be the measurement. I might order a few just to be on the safe side as I have seen what seems to be a perfect match1
