Can I use Urestone faux stone panels in my shower?

Yes. URESTONE faux stone, faux brick, and faux wood panels are waterproof and durable for shower walls and wet areas. Install over a proper substrate, seal all seams and penetrations, and use cleaners that are safe for painted finishes.

Details

  • Substrates: install over cement board or a waterproof backing. Apply a waterproofing membrane per manufacturer instructions before panel installation

  • Adhesive and fasteners: use a compatible construction adhesive and corrosion-resistant screws. Follow cure times before exposing to water

  • Seams and edges: seal vertical and horizontal joints, inside corners, niches, and valve trims with a compatible sealant. Maintain expansion gaps where specified

  • Fixtures: pre-drill for mixers, showerheads, and accessories. Seal penetrations thoroughly to keep water out of the wall assembly

  • Floor transitions: panels are for walls and ceilings. Use a standard shower pan or tile floor. Flash and seal at the pan upturn or threshold

  • Optional topcoat: a clear polyurethane sealer may be applied to make routine cleaning even easier. Test in an inconspicuous area first

  • Style and layout: large-format panels reduce grout lines and seams compared to tile, creating a realistic stacked stone or brick look with easier upkeep
