Behind the toilet question!

Hi. My bathroom is currently undergoing a make over. I planned to have two walls tiled and the others painted, including the one the toilet is going on (wall hung). Im also having a cupboard built in next to the toilet. My issue is that I've read a load of forums saying a painted wall/plasterboard behind a toilet will look really grubby very soon. I didn't want tile as I thought it might be too much (the other walls are herringbone and the floor is faux marble). Any ideas on what to put behind the toilet please??!!! I've added some photos. I'd be really grateful for any help x

Comments (5)There are no rules about skirting boards, it's just a matter of personal taste. Personally, I prefer to see the tiles go right down to the floor because it gives a cleaner look. If your house is fairly modern, then removing the skirting and tiling over shouldn't be a problem. If however your house is Victorian, you might find an 'air gap' behind the boards which would need to be addressed before tiling....See MoreEnsuite toilet separate or in bathroom?
Comments (1)Your husband is definitely right in that it would be easier to keep the WC separate. However, whether it would be better to join the two rooms is quite another issue. Most often, we join bathrooms and WCs to give a greater feeling of space and (as an incidental plus point) less wall to maintain. Assuming cost isn't the main issue, you'll probably need to convince your husband that the benefits of rearrangement merit venturing beyond his comfort with the status quo....See Morehole in tiles behind toilet
