What Is Redi Wall? The Fastest Way to Instantly Waterproof Your Shower Walls

What Is Redi Wall? The Fastest Way to Instantly Waterproof Your Shower Walls

If you’ve ever searched “how do I waterproof my shower walls fast?” or “is there an easier alternative to cement board?” This is your answer: Redi Wall®, the 100% waterproof wall system from Tile Redi™.

Just like our one-piece Tile Redi shower pans, Redi Wall shower panels are factory-sealed, lightweight, and ready to tile, helping you build a leakproof shower in as little as 30 minutes.

 

What Are Redi Wall Panels Made Of?

Example of Redi Wall

Redi Wall waterproof boards are made from the same durable polyurethane material as our Tile Redi pans, not cement board or foam core. That means:

  • Zero silica dust and no fiberglass mesh to cut through

  • Completely waterproof from core to surface

  • Mold- and mildew-resistant

  • Built to last under daily use and temperature changes

Each 3' × 5' × ½" panel weighs under 15 lbs, making it perfect for both DIYers and professional installers.

 

Is the Redi Wall Easy to Install?

Installation is fast, clean, and simple, no mortar, no waterproofing membrane, no waiting.
Just secure the panels to your studs, then seal seams using Redi Sealant™ and a tape membrane or Redi Flash® kit.

Because each panel is reversible and can be installed in any direction, you can finish a full shower wall system in about 30 minutes.

When paired with a Tile Redi shower pan, the Redi Wall® boards line up perfectly—their ½" thickness ensures a flush, watertight connection between the wall and pan.

 

Why Choose Redi Wall Over Cement Board or Foam Panels?

Traditional wall boards require multiple waterproofing steps, creating risk points for leaks.
Redi Wall eliminates that risk by being factory-waterproof and ready for tile right away.

You’ll save time, reduce installation errors, and avoid callbacks caused by water damage or mold growth.
In other words: Redi Wall isn’t just waterproof, it’s worry-proof.

 

Who Is Redi Wall® Best For?

  • DIY Remodelers: looking for an easy way to upgrade their shower without hiring a pro

  • Professional Installers: who want to work faster and avoid warranty issues

  • Builders & Designers: seeking reliable waterproof solutions for multifamily or hospitality projects
