Part of the fun of a bathroom remodel is choosing the materials and colors that will define the new look of your updated bathroom. One aspect to consider is the design of bathroom tiles. Though tiles are steadily losing favor to easier-to-clean acrylic shower surrounds, they are still a popular bathroom feature.
Materials & Design
Bathroom tiles are typically available in ceramic, porcelain, and stone materials. No matter which you prefer, all can be customized to create the new look you envision for your bathroom. Choose to have all the tiles be one color for a monotone appearance, or mix up the color variations for a unique, eye-pleasing design. Edging tiles and frames can also be used to add emphasis.
Moving Beyond Tile
Though tile walls are a traditional favorite, homeowners looking for a modern and easier-to-clean bathroom opt for acrylic shower surrounds instead. While tile walls are gorgeous once installed, the grout in between the tiles can grow mold and mar the appearance. The grout is notoriously hard to clean and often requires heavy scrubbing with a brush and harsh chemicals.
Easy-Maintenance Shower Surrounds
Contemporary shower systems can feature an acrylic surround rather than a tile-and-grout wall. Acrylic is an exceptionally durable material, and it is highly resistant to mold and mildew growth. This makes it a cinch to clean. In fact, a quick wipe-down with a mild soap and water is typically all that’s required to clean an acrylic shower wall. And there are just as many colors and designs to choose from to customize the look of your updated bathroom.
