Plastic trim looks fashionable and modern. It hides many shortcomings from the curvature of the walls and ending with holes in them. This method of interior wall decoration has a lot of pluses, the only significant minus is the relative high cost of the finishing material.
I’ll tell you how I personally finished one of the most needed rooms))) to which the folk trail never overgrows is a toilet.

TOOL. First things first, if you are going to do something like this, I want to advise you to get or borrow as much of a mechanized tool as possible, such as a rotary hammer, screwdriver, jigsaw and the like. If this is not taken care of, then with this finish you can wade up to a month. I want to say that I all went crazy for three days.
In addition, you need a measuring tool such as all sorts of LEVELS, rulers, goniometers, angle of 90 degrees and others.

MATERIAL. Well, I think you will pick up the colors you yourself, but as for the quality, you should think about it and be sure to pay attention to the evenness of the plates, the color scheme (so that it is the same for all stripes). The corner of the panels must be intact, otherwise they will have to be cut. In general, look with your eyes, touch with your hands, do not be shy, ask the seller. Naturally, before buying, make a complete list, taking into account everything from finishing materials, ending with fasteners and all kinds of bolts, screws, adhesives.

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

Good luck in the construction and finishing work!

    I would start from the floor. Judging by the photo - the tile needs to be replaced, after repairing the walls and ceiling this will be especially striking. The sewer riser has a so-called “revision”, so it would be better to make a door for access on this place in plastic if something happens ... (they, doors, are sold in various styles). Instead of email. When working with a jigsaw, you can use a hacksaw for cutting plastic and corners with baseboards, but you need a “miter box” for cutting corners, otherwise it will be painfully long for the eye, by the way, the hacksaw cuts the bars well too. And at a price - plastic is the cheapest finish option at a panel price of about 80-100 rubles apiece with a size of 0.25m.2.7m. Tiles would be two times more expensive, and with drywall an order of magnitude exactly with all the finishing of the seams and painting. And as a whole it turned out well. Well done!

    Very good, the tile yes, you need to change it, you can do it on the laminate, and the back wall behind the toilet could be made with a shelf, or you can put a suspended toilet in general, especially since the distance allows you to hang the drain button in the air and on the back wall. Much better aesthetics compared to a conventional toilet. And, in fact, we are doing repairs primarily to make it beautiful.
    Significantly easier cleaning in the bathroom, because nothing costs on the floor .. You can still redo it a bit and get even better if the budget allows.
