The plastic finish looks fashionable and modern. Hides many imperfections, from the curvature of the walls to holes in them. This method of interior wall decoration has many advantages, the only significant disadvantage is the relative high cost of the finishing material.
I'll tell you how I personally decorated one of the most necessary rooms))) to which the popular path never becomes overgrown - the toilet.

TOOL. First of all, if you are going to do something like this, I would advise you to acquire or borrow as many power tools as possible, such as a hammer drill, a screwdriver, a jigsaw, and the like. If this is not taken care of, then you can mess around with this finish for up to a month. I want to say that I got it all done in three days.
In addition to everything, you need a measuring instrument such as all sorts of LEVELS, rulers, protractors, 90 degree angles and others.

MATERIAL. Well, I think you will choose the colors yourself, but it’s worth thinking about the quality and be sure to pay attention to the evenness of the slabs, the color scheme (so that all stripes are the same). The corners of the panels must be undamaged, otherwise they will have to be cut.In general, look with your eyes, touch with your hands, don’t be shy, ask the seller. Naturally, before purchasing, make a complete list, taking into account everything from finishing materials to fasteners and all kinds of bolts, screws, and adhesives.

On the first day I assembled the frame. I took quite detailed photos, so everything should be without unnecessary explanation.

The result, I think, is obvious to everyone. I would like to give advice: before you start decorating such a room, think about whether it is worth replacing some hose or tap before finishing.

Good luck with construction and finishing work!

    I would start from the floor. Judging by the photo, the tiles require replacement; after repairing the walls and ceiling, this will be especially noticeable.The sewer riser has a so-called “revision”, so it would be better to make a door in this place in plastic for access in case of anything... (they, doors, are sold in various styles). Instead of email When working with a jigsaw, you can use a metal hacksaw to cut plastic and corners with baseboards, but you will need a miter box for cutting corners, otherwise it will take a painfully long time by eye, by the way, the hacksaw also cuts bars quite well. And in terms of price - plastic is the cheapest finishing option with a panel price of approximately 80-100 rubles per piece measuring 0.25 m. at 2.7m. Tiles would be twice as expensive, and plasterboard would be an order of magnitude more expensive with all the finishing of the seams and painting. And overall it turned out well. Well done!

    Very good, yes, the tiles need to be changed, maybe with laminate, and the back wall behind the toilet could be made with a shelf, or even a wall-hung toilet could be installed, especially since the distance allows it, there would be a flush button hanging in the air and on the back wall. Much better aesthetics compared to a regular toilet. And, in fact, we do renovations primarily to make them beautiful.
    It makes cleaning the bathroom much easier, because... there is nothing on the floor.. You can also redo it a little and turn out even better if the budget allows.
