Common Uses
Dumawall Dusky Shale tiles are used for shower walls, bathtub surrounds, bathroom feature walls, kitchen backsplashes, laundry rooms, and commercial washroom surfaces where a waterproof, grout-free wall cladding is required. Dusky Shale suits contemporary and moody interiors where a dark stone appearance creates a dramatic feature wall or shower surround. They are also used for renovation projects where removing existing ceramic tile is impractical.
Pro Tips
- Apply silicone sealant in the tongue and groove joints for shower and direct-water-contact installations.
- Acclimate tiles in the installation room for 48 hours at approximately 20 degrees C before installation -- PVC expands and contracts with temperature changes.
- Cut Dumawall tiles with a utility knife (score and snap) or a fine-tooth saw -- no wet saw or tile cutter required.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can Dumawall Dusky Shale be used in a shower?
Yes. Dumawall tiles are 100% waterproof and suitable for shower walls. Apply silicone sealant in the interlocking joints for shower installations to prevent moisture from reaching the wall behind the tiles.
Do I need to remove my existing ceramic tiles to install Dumawall?
No. Dumawall installs directly over existing ceramic tiles, provided the old tiles are firmly bonded to the wall and the surface is reasonably flat. This eliminates the mess, cost, and time of demolition.
