Shower Upgrades Using a Stylish Tiling Alternative
The homeowners in Karaka returned to our team at Smith & Sons Franklin after their previous renovations, seeking to upgrade the showers in both their ensuite and main guest bathroom. They wanted to transition from acrylic showers to the luxurious look and feel of tiled showers. However, due to the necessary waterproofing for tiled installations, the project would require council approval, which can be a lengthy process. Eager to start the project promptly, we recommended Beyond Tiles, an alternative that doesn't need building consent. Backed by a lifetime guarantee, the beyond tiles waterproof wall panels offer a great solution that closely resembles traditional tiles. Most people can't tell the difference!
In the ensuite, we replaced the original corner shower with a spacious walk-in shower that stretches the length of the room, making better use of the available space. The clients chose an earthy neutral colour for the Beyond Tiles panels. In the main guest bathroom, we slightly enlarged the framed shower and opted for crisp white subway tile panels. To enhance storage in both rooms, we added sleek glass corner shelves and upgraded the heated towel rails from chrome to black, introducing a modern touch to the spaces.
