The Role of Trims in Wet Wall Panel Installations
Imagine stepping into a bathroom where every corner and edge speaks volumes of precision and elegance. That’s the magic of incorporating the right trims into your DIY wet wall panel installations. These seemingly small components play a pivotal role in tying together the visual elements of your space, creating a seamless transition between panels and ensuring that every inch of your bathroom looks impeccably finished.
But it’s not just about looks. Our finishing trims also significantly enhance the functionality of our wet wall panels. They contribute to the panels’ overall durability and moisture resistance, ensuring that your bathroom remains a haven of comfort and style for years to come. Our wet wall panels, complemented by the perfect trims, are designed to withstand the rigours of daily use without compromising on aesthetics.
Overview of Trim Types
When it comes to wet wall panel finishing trims, there are four types of trims to create the perfect wet wall installation:
Internal Corner Trim: Perfectly crafted to fit snugly into the internal corners of your bathroom, these trims ensure smooth, seamless transitions. Say goodbye to awkward edges and hello to a sleek, professional finish that elevates the look of your entire space.
External Corner Trim: For those sharp, external corners, our External Corner Trim provides a clean, precise finish. It’s all about creating a cohesive look that draws the eye, enhancing the overall design of your bathroom.
Panel End Cap: The ideal solution for ending a run of panels, our Panel End Caps offer a neat, tidy conclusion. This trim ensures that every detail, no matter how small, contributes to your bathroom design’s overall beauty and integrity.
H Trim: Our H Trim is indispensable when it comes to joining panels side by side. It ensures a continuous, unbroken appearance, maintaining the flow of your design and adding to the seamless aesthetic of your space.

Practical Tips for Trim Selection and Installation
Selecting Trims: Use the information above as a guide to help you choose the right trim for your wet wall panel design. Keep in mind that trims are also available in different finishes, such as gloss or matte, so consider which one best complements your panels.
Measuring and Cutting Trims: Accuracy is key when measuring and cutting your trims. Always use a reliable tape measure and mark your trims clearly before cutting. It’s advisable to measure twice and cut once to avoid any mishaps. For cutting, use a fine-tooth saw or a cutting tool specifically designed for the material of your trims. This ensures a clean, precise cut that will fit perfectly against your wall panels and corners.
Securing Trims in Place: The integrity of your wet wall installation depends not only on the panels but also on how well the trims are secured. For this, choosing the right adhesive and sealant is paramount. We recommend using a waterproof adhesive compatible with your trims and wall panels. Apply the adhesive evenly along the length of the trim, press firmly into place, and allow it to set as per the manufacturer’s instructions. To ensure a watertight seal, especially in areas exposed to water, apply a quality silicone sealant along the edges where the trims meet the panels.
