I have a 2009 Bailey Sancerre and the one piece plastic sheeting in the shower cubicle has cracked. The cost of having this replaced with a new one is around £400 which I think is way over the top just for a bit of thin plastic. The sheet is in one piece and is what they call a lose fit lining, it is fixed at the top by 9 rivits 3 on back wall, 3 on side wall and 3 on partion wall to bedroom. The bottom drops into what they call a castle shower tray which has raised edges and is lose fit.

I was thinking of removing this liner and Tiling the 3 walls with NEKEN Plastic tiles. The tiles are 305mm square made up of 9 small tiles. They are plastic with a polystyrene back. You can also get the the corner trim profile where the tiles meet in the corners. They say it is 100% waterproof.  www.neken.co.uk

1 Would it be ok to go down this path ?

2 If so could I stick the tiles directly onto the wallboard ?

Hi

The tiles are very light and are no heaver than polystyrene of the same thickness. You only have to grout between the full tile not the 9 smaller titles and the so called grouting is silicon based.

That sounds heavy to me!  If you use your lite tiles, make sure you use a flexible adhesive because as has been said there will be a fair amount of movement.
