“Failing to completely waterproof the bathroom can have very bad consequences, leaks can lead to rotting floorboards and wooden beams and even entire floors collapsing.”

If you want to ensure that your bathroom is sufficiently water resistant then ceramic bathroom tiles are an excellent choice as a wall covering. Not only do they have very good water proof capabilities, there are also a wide range of other reasons why bathroom tiles are a good choice. Not only do they provide an excellent waterproof barrier to prevent flooding and leaks, they also look neat and tidy, are available in a massive choice of colours, styles, sizes and patterns, are cheap compared to other wall coverings.

As they are impenetrable to water, bathroom tiles have lots of different uses such as in shower cubicles, around the edge of baths, in combination bath and showers, in the ever increasingly popular wet room or just as a splash back behind your sink to provide a barrier against small splashes when washing. A lot of homes have their entire bathroom walls covered with bathroom tiles as they look so great and are available in such a wide choice of styles and colours.

Showers are a good example of where bathroom tiles excel, any other waterproof wall covering for a shower cubicle could cost hundreds or even thousands of dollars to buy and install but bathroom tiles can be very inexpensive and that’s why they have a big advantage over other wall coverings. The area needs to be completely waterproof and as long as you use a waterproof adhesive and waterproof grout with your bathroom tiles and ensure that there are no gaps whatsoever for water and moisture to access the wall behind, then tiles are the idea covering. Failing to completely waterproof the area can have very bad consequences, leaks can lead to rotting floorboards and wooden beams and even entire floors collapsing.
