Its important to consider many different factors when selecting the right veneer material for your bathroom, the material type, specific application and install methods must all be taken account. In this blog we will breakdown the key points and give you guidance on the best way forward.
When choosing the veneer for your bathroom please make sure the surface finish you are using will be suitable for the area.
Our slate veneers can be used in every area including shower walls and bathroom floors. The rest of our veneers (limestone, marble, concrete and metal) can only be used for feature walls which are not in the shower and bath panels.
When installing our veneers in a bathroom area it is important the correct adhesive is used and applied in the correct way. We offer Soudal Fix All High tack which is both strong and water proof.
The adhesive must be spread evenly on the back of each sheet to ensure there are no gaps between the adhesive and sheets where moisture can sit.
Sealing, Cleaning and Maintaining your Veneer. When using one of our stone veneer types in a wet area it is important you seal the top surface of the stone after installation in order to protect it from staining, we offer two different stone sealer options for use with our veneer range. We also offer a care cleaner that we recommend be used for regular cleaning of the sheets. When considering the look of the stone veneer for your bathroom you should consider the style of the design and the colours and textures of the other finishes in the room. We offer materials that suit both cotemporary and traditional designs and also have materials with subtle matt finishes and some with a shimmer along with varying degrees of texture. |
