Can you put VJ panels over exisiting tiles?

Al-renos

Hello,

I want to install VJ panelling in my bathroom over existing wall tiles in the non-wet areas that go from the floor to the ceiling. Can I prime the existing tiles and then use some adhesive to stick the VJ panels to the tiles? Or is there a better way of achieving this?

Thanks

Alex

Hi Al-renos,  

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community. It's wonderful to have you join us, and thank you for sharing your question about putting EasyVJ panels over tiles.

Unfortunately, VJ panels cannot be installed over existing tiles within the boundaries of the manufacturer's warranty.

It is stated on page 4 of the Easycraft - Product Fact Sheet & Installation Guidelines that “You can not tile directy over easycraft panels or install easycraft over the top of tiles”

Ultimately, it can physically be done, but as you would be doing so outside of the recommendations of the installation guide, you would do so at your own risk, as you would not be covered by any warranty.

If you have any other questions we can help with, please let us know.
