Why bathrooms need waterproof shutters
Comparing materials side by side? Our definitive bathroom guide is here: Shutters for Bathrooms: Waterproof Options Compared.
Bathrooms generate more moisture than any other room in the house. Steam from showers, splashes near basins, and condensation on cold mornings create an environment where standard wood shutters and fabric blinds can warp, peel, or grow mould. Waterproof shutters bathroom installations solve all these problems — they're manufactured from materials that are completely impervious to moisture.
Waterproof shutters for your bathroom also provide excellent privacy for ground-floor and street-facing windows, replacing frosted glass or awkward roller blinds with an elegant, adjustable solution.
Best waterproof shutter materials
Mimeo composite shutters are our top recommendation for waterproof shutters bathroom applications. Made from a dense composite polymer, they won't warp, crack, or discolour even in the steamiest bathrooms. They wipe clean in seconds and are available in the same styles as our wood range.
For a premium option, Dura aluminium shutters also offer complete moisture resistance with an industrial-chic aesthetic that suits contemporary bathroom designs.
Styles for bathroom windows
Full-height shutters are the most popular choice for waterproof shutters in bathrooms because they cover the entire window for maximum privacy. Tier-on-tier shutters are ideal if you want to open the top section for ventilation while keeping the lower panels closed.
