FAQs
Can I install Wetwall panels myself?
While DIY installation is possible for experienced individuals, professional installation is recommended to ensure a perfect, watertight finish, especially for corners and complex shower shapes.
How do I clean the Milano Marble panels?
Clean with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. Rinse and dry. Avoid abrasive cleaners or tools.
Are Wetwall panels suitable for a wet room?
Yes, Wetwall panels are designed to create a fully waterproof environment and are ideal for use in wet rooms.
What is the difference between Wetwall and tiles?
Wetwall panels offer a seamless, grout-free surface that is waterproof and low-maintenance, unlike traditional tiles which have grout lines that can stain and harbor mold.
How durable is the Milano Marble effect?
The decorative surface is designed to be durable for bathroom use. However, like any surface, it can be scratched or damaged by harsh impacts or abrasive cleaning.
Can I place the panels over existing tiles?
It is generally not recommended to install directly over existing tiles. The substrate should be a solid, flat, and dry surface, typically plasterboard or cement board, for optimal adhesion and waterproofing.
Troubleshooting
Panel not adhering properly
Ensure the substrate is completely dry and free from dust or grease. Use the recommended adhesive and apply even pressure during installation.
Water ingress at seams
Verify that the appropriate sealant has been used and applied correctly to all edges and joints according to manufacturer instructions.
Surface scratches or dullness
Avoid using abrasive cleaning tools or chemicals. If minor scratches occur, a plastic polish may help, but test in an inconspicuous area first.
Cutting difficulties
Use a fine-toothed blade designed for laminate or plastic. Ensure the panel is securely supported during cutting to prevent chipping.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup: Ensure the wall substrate is clean, dry, and structurally sound before installation. Panels are typically cut to size using a fine-toothed saw or jigsaw. Adhesives and sealants recommended by Wetwall should be used to ensure a waterproof bond. Follow manufacturer guidelines for joining panels and sealing edges.
Compatibility: Wetwall panels are designed for use in shower enclosures, wet rooms, and as decorative wall coverings in bathrooms. They are compatible with most standard bathroom fixtures.
Care: Clean the panel surface regularly with a soft, damp cloth and mild, non-abrasive soap. Avoid using abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the surface finish. Rinse thoroughly with clean water and dry with a soft cloth.
