Bathroom renovation using VJ panelling

This bathroom makeover all started when visiting my local Bunnings store and seeing a brochure on VJ panelling, a spark was ignited and I started investigating the possibility of using this product in my bathroom.  I collected images and ideas of how I could complete the bathroom on a budget. The real journey began when a family member was going to use a beautiful piece of reclaimed timber as a work bench in their garage. This was going to be our feature piece in our bathroom.

The journey began. The renovation was a challenge, but the wonderful staff at my local Bunnings, google and Pinterest became my best friend. I learnt everything from waterproofing, tiling, grouting, panelling and so on.  I spent my days going back and forth from my local Bunnings store and this renovation would not be possible without their vast selection of products and advice. 

We could not be more than happy with our bathroom renovation and now our ensuite is set in our sights!

Re: Bathroom renovation using VJ panelling

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community @rayrayonvacay. It's sensational to have you join us, and many thanks for your question about this wonderful project.

Let me tag @RCRISP so they are notified of your question.

 

Regarding installation, if the sink vessel is above the bench and within 75mm of the wall, then a waterproof product needs to be used. So, if your sink was within that vicinity, you'd need to add a waterproofing membrane and a surface such as tiles. In this project, it appears that the vessel is further than 75mm from the wall. I'll add an image from the EasyCraft Installation guide below. Hopefully, @RCRISP can fill us in to see whether there have been any issues with this compliant installation.

Please let me know if you have any questions.
