Bath and Shower Walls – What are YOUR Options?

Many people in the Pittsburgh Area thinking about remodeling their bath or shower don’t know about the numerous material options available for the walls that surround your bath or shower. To save people time and research, here are the most common options out there and what Mt. Pleasant Window & Remodeling Co. recommends:

1. GLASS

Glass tiles are pretty simple to describe. These titles can give additional shininess to your bath or shower area. Unlike most tiles, they come in smaller tiles that when added together create a pattern. They break very easily and cost $$$.

Pros: Nice to Look At, Shiny, Unique

Cons: Expensive, Brittle, Easily Damaged

2. STONE

Stone tiles look like natural marbling, very similar to granite. They also need to be installed one-by-one in your wall, a very time consuming process that will drive up your bath or shower cost.

Pros: Strong, Natural Texture

Cons: Expensive, Easily Stained, Hard to Clean, Too Long to Install

3. CERAMIC

Ceramic tiles are larger than glass or stone ones, making your bath or shower wall look different.. Ceramic is basically like porcelain, which is what your toilet is made out of.

Pros: Cheap

Cons: Out of Style, Complex/Involved Installation, Looks Cheesy

4. ACRYLIC

Acrylic material is custom cut in one large piece to fit your bath or shower wall per corner. Acrylic is a sheet installation process for bath or shower walls, definitely not like tile. This creates a glossy finish with many different options and designs to choose from.

Pros: Slip-Resistant, Mold-Resistant, Great Variety of Color & Texture Options, Inexpensive, Easy Installation

Con: Nothing We Can Find!

Mt. Pleasant Window & Remodeling Co. recommends acrylic as the best bath and shower wall material. Acrylic is the best system to use for bath and shower walls for the following reasons: 1) The Safest 2) Low Maintenance 3) Easy to Install.

I was skeptical at first my home is very close to road, lots of road noise. The salesman said they work well I must say after the install not all the noise has left but 60% better and we noticed rooms are a lot cooler! My hat off to whole staff all very professional from start to finish, TY Britton, Henry, Joe, Derek and Michelle, and anyone else I may have missed ….. I highly recommend this company!

What a pleasant experience !!!! And WOW !!! What a great job !!!! From start to finish, the Mt. Pleasant Window and Remodeling Co. was so helpful, from the estimate and helping pick out various patterns and fixtures, to the finance department helping to make it all possible.. Additionally, the installation team was amazing, Brandon and Mike were totally respectful of my home, with drop clothes and always cleaning up after themselves, so great to deal with, offered so many suggestions that helped make my project come out beautifully !!!! Definitely a five star company with five star employees !!!! No doubt I will use them again when needed !!!!

Wonderful experience from start to finish. I called on a Friday in a panic because my dog had jumped on and broken the old storm door (not installed by Mt. Pleasant Windows). Their sales manager, Greg, came out on a Saturday to figure out how we needed to proceed and then their Project Manager, Britton, came out on a Monday to get the old door functional until the new doors came in. There was excellent communication while waiting for the doors to be made and then the install team, Joe, Matt, and Charlie, was quick, friendly, polite and cleanly. I couldn’t have asked for anything more!
