My husband is going to try it... We will call in a professional if it's not going well! Our tiles are off, but it's going to need some repair to the plaster, so that'll take a bit of time to dry out before he can put the panels up.

It's up! A few finishing jobs needed but almost there. The new shower tower is aesthetically not the best match, but I'm looking forward to the nice shower. Panels seem to have worked well. It's cost about £400 with the PVC panels, shower, new seals for the shower glass (they were old and yellowed) and the fitting bits like adhesive and sealant. I think it has been good value overall.

Looks really good. I used plastic black sparkle about 10 years ago in our shower, because my wife got fed up with cleaning the tiles. It's still good now, so has done the test of time.

Looks good to me. 

Before you return our steps, could you please clean off the paint splodges🤔

Haha I've got a bit of touching in to do for the bathroom paint today, so I was planning to add some more paint splodges first 😅
