FAQs
Can I install this panel myself?
Yes, the Wetwall Elite panels are designed for DIY installation and can typically be fitted in a single day. However, it is crucial to follow all instructions, especially regarding the use of the recommended sealant and adhesive.
What are the exact dimensions of the panel?
The Wetwall Elite Bathroom Wall Panel measures 2420mm in height, 580mm in width, and 10mm in thickness.
Is this product suitable for a wet room environment?
Yes, the panel is 100% waterproof and specifically designed for bathroom and shower walls, making it suitable for wet room installations when properly sealed at all edges and joints.
How does this compare in cost to traditional tiling?
The Wetwall Elite panel is generally more cost-effective than tiling, considering the price of materials, labor, and the elimination of grout-related maintenance costs over time.
Can I install the panels over existing tiles?
Yes, the panels can be adhered over existing tiles, provided the existing tiles are sound, clean, and the surface is properly prepared (e.g., ensuring it is level and free of loose grout).
What kind of maintenance does this product require?
Maintenance is minimal. The grout-free surface can be cleaned with a damp cloth and mild, non-abrasive cleaners. Avoid abrasive materials.
What is the 'double postformed' feature?
Double postformed means the panel has two pre-finished, rounded edges. This provides a clean, finished look where panels meet or at exposed edges, simplifying installation and appearance.
What warranty is included with the Wetwall Elite panel?
The product comes with a lifetime guarantee from the manufacturer. Please refer to the manufacturer's terms and conditions for full details.
Troubleshooting
Panel is not adhering properly
Ensure the wall surface is clean, dry, and free from dust or grease. Reapply the recommended adhesive evenly and ensure firm, consistent pressure during installation. Check that the correct adhesive has been used.
Water ingress at seams or edges
This indicates an incomplete seal. Ensure all edges and joints are thoroughly sealed with the recommended sealant. Check for any missed spots or gaps and reapply sealant as needed.
Scratches or damage to the surface
Minor scratches may be buffed out with a soft cloth. For significant damage, consult the manufacturer's guidelines for repair options or consider replacing the affected panel.
Panel appears warped or uneven
Ensure the panels are installed on a flat, stable surface. Extreme temperature fluctuations or insufficient adhesive can cause this. Check adhesive application and wall flatness.
