Shower rebuild

[Cody72]

Finally got my shower project done, the back wall was wavy from what I thought was a leak from the shower, turned out to be a screw through the seam of the top and sides. Much brighter than wallpaper now anyway and looks sparkly clean.

What materials did you end up using?

I'm just about to do the same type of repair/upgrade.

many have used FRP. commonly found at the big box stores. lowes, home depot. inside corner and outside "cap" or trim mouldings are available. applied with adhesive. joe from dover.

Hi- I just got an '86 Dolphin and the whole back wall (it's the bathroom) needs to be replaced. I'm not sure if I do it from the inside or the outside... Any pointers?

 

Thanx

Hi. I'm rebuilding a 1989 Dolphin and wondering if anyone makes a shower stall that would fit. I've thought about the FRP but would prefer something more solid. I'm also replacing the toilet if anyone has a recommendation.

Hello, all. I have a 1986 Nova Star with the fiberglass shell. If I use FRP, I am creating a second vapor barrier, correct? Does anyone have suggestions for other bathroom wall materisls to avoid moisture and mould growth, especially from condensation inside the wall? Is this even something I should worry about?

No don’t worry about it.
