Bath panels
Finishing a built-in bath.

A built-in bath needs its open sides covered. The panel can be a simple acrylic front, wood or wood-effect, or tiles that match the room.

Simplest: Acrylic
Warmest look: Wood
Most seamless: Tiled in
Always needs: Access to the waste

The basics

Front panels run along the length of the bath; end panels close off a bath that isn't between two walls. Whatever you choose, there needs to be a way to reach the waste and trap for servicing.
