Floor-to-ceiling tiling is a design choice rather than a requirement for every bathroom. It can create a consistent finish and makes many wall areas easy to wipe down, but it increases material and labour costs and leaves less flexibility for future decorative changes.
A mixed approach can work equally well: fully tile shower and bath wet zones, then use appropriate paint or other finishes in drier areas. The right decision depends on the room size, tile choice, budget and how much moisture each wall is exposed to.
Doherty's Glasgow bathroom installation service includes tiling and final finishing, so the tile extent can be agreed during the design and quotation stage rather than decided midway through the job.
