Is installing wallpaper in the bathroom a good idea?
Wallpaper instead of tiles in the bathroom is an increasingly popular choice among people who value not only functionality but also a distinctive style. Contrary to appearances, a well-chosen wallpaper can work in a bathroom just as well as traditional tiles. The key to success is choosing a moisture-resistant material and the right installation method. The vinyl wallpapers available at Wallcolors are waterproof, easy to clean and look great in modern interiors. They are an ideal solution for interiors decorated in glamour, boho or Scandinavian style.
To give the wallpaper maximum durability, it is worth using the System WET – an innovative way of protecting wallpapers in wet areas. It involves using a suitable primer, adhesive and varnish, which together create a waterproof coating that protects the walls from moisture. This makes it possible to install wallpaper even right next to a bathtub or shower. System WET is used exclusively with vinyl wallpapers on a non-woven backing, which are already resistant to moisture and temperature changes. It is an ideal solution for those who want a beautiful, durable and original bathroom without having to lay tiles.
Another advantage of bathroom wallpapers is their easy installation – it takes less time than laying tiles, and if necessary they can be replaced relatively easily. However, it is worth remembering that the key to success is care. Wallpaper must be applied to a perfectly prepared, smooth and dry surface. When using System WET, it is necessary to apply a special adhesive and protect the surface with varnish. As a result, the wallpaper becomes completely resistant to splashes and can last for many years.
If you are looking for an interesting alternative to tiles and care about a warmer, cozier visual effect, bathroom wallpaper will be a great choice. In the Wallcolors offer you will find a wide selection of patterns – from botanical and geometric to minimalist. And if you want to finish only one wall, you can complement the others with elegant tiles – this way you will achieve an interesting contrast of materials and textures.
