Waterproof Wall Panels in Sneyd Green
Full bathroom installations, project-managed by one local team.
Tile isn't the only way to finish a wall. A growing share of our Sneyd Green clients want waterproof wall panels — SPC, PVC or aluminium composite — because they're faster to fit, easier to clean, and there's no grout to go black in year three.
We fit panels over sound substrates or on new moisture-resistant board. The right product depends on the room: high-humidity walk-in showers get a different spec to a splashback behind a basin.
Ask ten Sneyd Green households what they want from bathroom fitting and you get ten different briefs, so we start by listening.
