FAQs

What makes the Splashwall Elite range different from standard shower panels?

The Elite range features a patented technology for completely seamless designs without trims and a 100% waterproof core, offering enhanced durability and a modern aesthetic superior to many standard options.

Can I install this kit over existing tiles?

Yes, provided the existing tiles are firmly adhered, the surface is clean, and perfectly flat. It is crucial to prepare the surface correctly and use the recommended adhesive for optimal performance.

Is this product suitable for a wet room floor?

This kit is designed for wall installations in shower enclosures. It is not intended for use as a flooring solution.

How do I cut the panels to size?

The panels can be cut using standard cutting tools suitable for composite materials. Always use a sharp blade and measure carefully. It is recommended to practice on a spare piece first and wear appropriate safety gear.

What is the expected lifespan of these panels?

When installed correctly and maintained according to care instructions, the Splashwall Elite panels are designed for long-term use, offering excellent durability and resistance to moisture-related issues common in bathrooms.

Does the kit include all necessary adhesives and sealants?

The kit typically includes the panels themselves. It is essential to check the product packaging or specifications to confirm if adhesives, sealants, or other installation accessories are included, or if they need to be purchased separately.

Can the Vena Stone finish be painted or refinished?

The Vena Stone finish is designed to be durable and aesthetically pleasing as is. It is generally not recommended to paint or refinish the panels, as this may void the warranty and compromise the waterproof integrity.

Troubleshooting

Panels do not seem to adhere securely

Ensure the wall surface is clean, dry, and free from dust or grease. Verify that the correct adhesive is being used and applied evenly according to the manufacturer's instructions. Check that the wall substrate is structurally sound.

Water is found behind the panels

This indicates a breach in the waterproof seal. Inspect all edges, corners, and any cut-outs for gaps. Reapply sealant or ensure panels are correctly joined and adhered. If the core is compromised, panel replacement may be necessary.

Difficulty achieving a seamless look

Ensure panels are aligned precisely before fixing. Use a straight edge during cutting for clean, straight edges. Confirm that no trim pieces are accidentally being used if the seamless design is the goal.

Surface scratches or marks

Use only non-abrasive cleaning cloths and mild detergents. For minor scuffs, a gentle cleaning paste might help. For deeper scratches, consult the manufacturer for potential repair solutions or panel replacement guidance.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Achieves a completely seamless and modern look without visible trims.
  • Offers superior waterproofing compared to grout and tile systems.
  • Faster installation time compared to tiling.
  • Low maintenance and easy to clean.
  • Durable and resistant to damage.

Cons

  • Requires secure fixing to existing surfaces, which may necessitate wall preparation.
  • May not be suitable for all existing wall conditions without reinforcement.
  • Initial cost may be higher than some traditional tiling options.
  • Limited to 3-sided shower enclosures as per kit design.
  • Repairing specific damage might require panel replacement rather than spot fixes.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The Splashwall Elite panels are designed to be fixed directly onto existing suitable wall surfaces within a three-sided shower enclosure. Ensure the existing walls are clean, dry, and structurally sound. Follow the manufacturer's detailed instructions for cutting, adhesive application, and securing the panels to achieve the intended seamless finish. Proper sealing at edges and corners, even without trims, is crucial for maintaining water integrity.

Compatibility: This kit is specifically designed for use in three-sided shower enclosures. It is compatible with most standard shower tray and enclosure systems. The panels adhere to existing drywall, plaster, or tile backer board, provided the surface is stable and prepared correctly. Not recommended for ceilings or floors.

Care: To maintain the pristine appearance and waterproof integrity of your Splashwall panels, clean regularly with a soft, damp cloth and a mild, non-abrasive cleaning solution. Avoid using abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the surface finish. Wipe dry after cleaning to prevent water spots.
