Designing a Bathtub panel

20 days ago

Hi

I would like to tile my bathtub panel. However it is a shower bath therefore part of tub juts out to allow showering.

I have had a bathtub panel tiled with same tiles as flooring in bathroom therefore giving a seamless design. However due the shape this is a challenge.

Please any ideas?

I don't think it is possible to tile a curved bath panel shape unless you use mosiacs. They can follow curves with ease. They are also usually pricey so maybe you should look at alternatives such as tadelakt, microcement or maybe a steambent wood finish. The alternative is to build the panel type square with boxout battens like a square p and then it will be easy to tile it the normal way. It just means not following the curve but squaring it off first.

If it is curved then mosaic will do the job quite well. Mosaic has fallen out of fashion at the moment but I personally love them. They come is so many shades from a soft white through to gorgeous blues and turquoise. They’re not cheap though. I rather like the hexagonal shaped ones and the kitkat shape which are a bit more on trend than the little square ones.

Tiling your bathtub panel to match the floor is a great way to create a seamless look in your bathroom! Given the unique jut-out for the shower, you might want to consider smaller or mosaic tiles, which are easier to fit around curves and odd shapes. If you're up for something a bit more custom, you could have tiles cut to match the exact contours of your tub. This approach keeps everything looking neat and intentional. For tricky areas, a flexible tile adhesive can really help get those tiles to stick perfectly.
