Grant Westfield introduces an on-demand, 15-part video training course covering bathroom and interior wall panel installation techniques.
Wall panel manufacturer Grant Westfield has launched a new online Installer Training platform. The digital programme features a core 15-part video series structured to guide fitters step-by-step through interior panel installation. Modules cover site preparation, practical handling, trimming profiles, and correct accessory application to standardise fitting quality and avoid costly callback errors on job sites.
With wet-room solutions and decorative wall panelling increasingly specified over traditional ceramic tiling in modern domestic refurbishments, installer speed and water-tight finishing have become critical skills for plumbers and bathroom fitters. The modular video format lets self-employed tradespeople and site workers complete training on-demand from a phone or tablet without taking time away from paid work.
What does this mean for a UK tradesperson or DIYer actually buying this kit — does it change what they should pay, buy, or watch out for? The training course does not alter trade counter prices for wall panels or associated adhesive kits at merchants like Wickes, Travis Perkins, or B&Q. However, completing the course helps trade buyers reduce expensive material waste by ensuring correct initial cuts and proper sealing techniques on high-value panel sheets. DIYers and general builders looking to expand into bathroom fitting can use the resource to avoid rookie fitting mistakes that lead to water ingress, saving money on replacement boards, specialized trims, and sealant packages.
Before starting a wall panel project, review the dedicated modules on corner trims and substrate preparation to ensure your adhesive choices and subframe setups comply with manufacturer installation guidelines for full warranty cover.
