To create a watertight shower assembly we installed schluter s kerdi membrane over the drywall just as we would for tile.
Metal roofing for shower walls.
Caulk we used a tube of white kitchen bath caulk clear silicone caulk and aluminum flashing caulk in an aluminum color.
Aluminum flashing figure out how much you ll need by determining how many corners your sheets of metal will turn in our case four and how tall your metal shower surround will be.
We also installed the metal panels on a rainscreen assembly as we had on the exterior securing the metal to 1 3 4 by 3 4 inch pressure treated pine battens ripped from 1x4s.
They don t intrude too much into the shower area.
I really liked the look and it s definitely durable.
That helped us in the decision to use them on our shower walls.
Plus they have wide flat spaces to install the faucet easily.
Installing corrugated tin sheets for a shower surround can give a bathroom character and works well with a rustic country theme.
I sprayed the back side of the panel and held it in place against the wall.
