Tongue and Groove

Tongue and groove cladding (T&G) is usually made out of softwood and can be used successfully in bathrooms, but there are some drawbacks. It cannot be used in shower areas or wherever it might come into direct contact with water.

It is does a good job of covering up rough or uneven walls (depending on the installation method used) and can look impressive in the right type of room.

UPVC waterproof wall panelling is just as easy to install, is available in wood effect finishes (as shown in the images above) does not rot, needs no maintenance and is totally waterproof - just a few reasons why you might like to consider a more modern approach to bathroom wall covering.
