In plain words

What are bathroom wall panels?

Bathroom wall panels are large, 100% waterproof vinyl boards with a high-definition marble or stone look. We glue them directly over your existing shower tile, so your old, cracked or stained tile disappears behind one smooth, grout-free wall — without tearing anything out.

Wall panels are right for you if…

  • Your shower tile is old, cracked, stained or out of style
  • Grout keeps cracking, turning black or letting water through
  • You want a new-looking shower in days, not weeks
  • You want no dust, no demolition and a lower price
  • You are a landlord or manager turning over a unit

Something else may fit better if…

Four layers doing the work

These aren't thin peel-and-stick sheets. Each panel is a rigid, multi-layer vinyl board built for wet rooms, thin enough to go right over your existing tile and strong enough to stay flat and sealed for years.

  • Protective top layerA clear, scratch- and stain-resistant coat that wipes clean.
  • Realistic stone-look layerHigh-definition marble and stone visuals — the part you see.
  • Durable stability layerKeeps the panel flat and dimensionally stable through temperature swings.
  • Waterproof rigid coreA 100% waterproof rigid base — the structure that makes it shower-ready.

Compare the two paths

Traditional renovation vs. wall panel refresh

Same goal — a beautiful bathroom. Very different week.

The old way

Traditional bathroom renovation

✕Demolition — tile chipped out, walls opened
✕Dust, debris and a dumpster on site
✕Typically 2–4+ weeks of construction
✕Bathroom unusable for the duration
✕Grout lines that stain and need scrubbing
✕Higher cost and more building disruption
Sani wall panel refresh

Bathroom wall panel refresh

✓Panels install right over existing tile
✓Minimal mess — no dumpster, little dust
✓Most bathrooms finished in 1–3 days
✓Back in use almost immediately
✓Seamless, waterproof, no grout to clean
✓Lower cost, premium marble-look result
How it goes on

Glued straight over your existing tile

Your old tile stays on the wall. It becomes the solid base for the new panels — nothing is chipped out, so there is no dust, no debris and no dumpster.

  2. Measure and cutEach panel is cut on site to fit your walls, valves and niche.
  3. GlueWaterproof adhesive goes on, the panel goes up. Tongue-and-groove edges lock panels together.
  4. CaulkCorners and edges are sealed with 100% silicone caulk. Done — no grout.
Tired of scrubbing grout?

A grout-free alternative to shower tile

Grout cracks, stains and lets water in. Shower wall panels give you a waterproof shower surround with no grout lines at all, in 1–3 days. If water is already getting behind the tile, it is not always the walls — a leaking shower pan or drain has to be fixed first, and panels would only hide it. We check that at the estimate, and do the repair when it is needed: see shower waterproofing & shower pan replacement. Prefer to keep your tile? Regrouting may be all it needs.

Good to know

Frequently asked questions

Yes. In most bathrooms the existing tile becomes the backing for the new panels. As long as the tile is reasonably sound and the wall is flat, we bond the waterproof panels right over it. There is no need to chip off old tile or open up the walls, which is what removes the dust, debris and dumpster from the job.

Most standard NYC bathrooms are completed in approximately 1 to 3 days. Because there is no demolition, drying time or re-tiling, the bathroom is usable again far sooner than a traditional renovation that can run several weeks.

Yes. The panels are 100% waterproof and are sealed at the seams, so they are suitable for shower walls and wet areas. With no grout lines, there is nowhere for water, mold or mildew to work into, which is also why they are far easier to clean.

We install six looks: bright white marble, soft Carrara, gold-vein marble, grey and taupe marble, cream stone and soft grey stone. Each panel is 3 ft by 7 ft, so a shower wall has only one or two panels and no grout lines, for a modern high-end appearance.

Generally yes. Because we eliminate demolition, debris removal and the labor of re-tiling, a wall panel refresh typically costs less than a full gut renovation while still delivering a modern, premium look.

It is one of the best options for landlords, property managers, co-ops and condos. A clean modern bathroom can be delivered between tenants in 1 to 3 days with minimal disruption to the rest of the unit or building, helping you turn the unit over quickly and raise its appeal.

Yes. Because the panels are 100% waterproof and sealed at the seams, they work as shower wall panels and tub-surround panels in wet areas — a fast, grout-free alternative to traditional shower tile, with no grout lines for mold or mildew to grow in.

They are rigid-core vinyl panels, 100% waterproof, with a protective top layer, a realistic marble or stone look, a stability layer and a waterproof core. They are made for showers and wet rooms and go directly over existing tile, so no demolition is needed.

Yes. Panels give you a waterproof shower wall with no grout lines — nothing to crack, stain or regrout — and most showers are done in 1 to 3 days, far faster than re-tiling. If you would rather have tile, we do that too.

Only when the water gets in through cracked grout or tile joints on the walls — panels seal over those. If the shower pan, drain or valve is leaking, panels would only hide the problem, so we repair the leak first with shower waterproofing or a shower pan replacement.

Very little. The panels are 3 ft wide and 7 ft tall, so a shower wall usually has one or two joints. The long edges are tongue and groove and lock together tightly, and the corners and edges are sealed with 100% silicone caulk. There are no grout lines.

No. There is no grout to seal, regrout or scrub. You clean the panels with a soft cloth and a normal non-abrasive bathroom cleaner. Over the years, only the silicone caulk at the corners may need to be refreshed.

Over all three, as long as the wall is solid and flat. Most of our jobs go over existing shower tile, which makes a strong, flat base. If the tile is loose or the wall behind it is soft or wet, we fix that first.

Yes. Sani Building Corp is fully insured, and our wall panel installation carries a 3-year workmanship warranty.

Sani Building Corp is based in Brooklyn and serves all five NYC boroughs — Brooklyn, Manhattan, Queens, the Bronx and Staten Island — plus Long Island and Nassau County.

Yes — this is one of the best uses for wall panels. Restaurant bathrooms need to look clean and modern, and the no-grout surface is far easier to maintain than tile. We can schedule the work in the evenings, overnight or on weekends to keep disruption to your service as low as possible.

Yes. We regularly work in retail stores, showrooms, medical offices, and commercial buildings across Manhattan and NYC. We work evenings and weekends to fit around your business hours. Fully insured for commercial work.

Yes. If your space needs full tile installation rather than a panel overlay, we also provide commercial tile installation for restaurants, retail, offices, and medical clinics throughout NYC.
