Are Shower Liner Panels Waterproof?
October 14, 2022
In theory, yes, they are.
Shower liner panels, especially those made of acrylic, are 100% waterproof when installed right because acrylic is a non-porous material. Plus, they come already made as a form of shower enclosure that's bonded to clean walls with adhesive and then sealed. They have no grout, which gives them a considerable advantage over tiles.
These shower liner panels can last up to ten years without scratches or stains. Also, the only maintenance they require is regular cleaning with antibacterial soap and water.

By now, you may be wondering, if they are so good, how come they are waterproof "in theory"? Well, the problem here is that many homeowners decide to install their panels as a DIY project.
And the lack of experience shows not only in the details. Many of these showers end up having leaks due to faulty installation, which is why you are better off hiring an expert with a proven process that can do the job well and fast.

Shower Panels Direct' Four-Step Process
We will follow this process to install your shower liner panels in record time.
- Step 1: We will remove the plumbing fixtures and inspect the condition of the shower's existing walls to ensure a stable, smooth substrate. If not, we'll make the necessary adjustments to ensure the shower walls are ready for installation.
- Step 2: We will ensure all shower liner panels fit and cut or file them if necessary.
- Step 3: We'll install your shower wall panels using a strong adhesive to secure them in place for many years to come.
- Step 4: Finally, we'll reinstall the plumbing fixtures. Then, we'll apply caulk to strategic places like between the panels and the shower basin, around the outside edges of the entire liner, and the fixtures. Once it's dry, you'll be able to enjoy your new shower.
