Depending on your location, the big name hardware stores carry shower board. These are 4 ft X 8 ft. Shower board is made for high humidity/water exposure. They are lightweight for easy installment. The seams can be covered with painted latice strips for asthetic purposes. https://m.lowes.com/pd/47-75-in-x-7-98-ft-Smooth-White-Hardboard-Wall-Panel/3015239Helpful Reply -
