Exchanging Your Tub For A Shower

If you have a tub taking up floor space in your bathroom, but you never use it, it might be time to consider getting rid of it in favor of a shower stall. Showers can be more efficient and use less water than bathtubs, leaving you with a lower energy bill and water bill. Let’s take a look at some of the things to consider when swapping out your tub for a shower stall.

Shower Door Swing

A lot of people worry about having enough room for the shower door to swing open when designing a shower stall. But the truth is there are a lot more options available than just a swinging door. You can install sliding doors, or you can just opt for no door at all. Modern showers are going for bigger sizes with custom tile work as a beautiful focal point of the bathroom. The possibilities are endless…

Heated Floors

Do you hate getting out of the shower and landing on a cold floor? Consider adding heated floors to your bathroom. If you shower daily, you’ll spend a lot of time in your bathroom, so you might as well enjoy it. Heated floors are a luxury that will make you feel like you live in a spa every single day.

Shower Bench

When planning out your shower, consider how you will be using it. Adding in a bench can give you a place to relax, but also a place to put your stuff in the shower. You can opt to add built in storage to your shower as well, removing the need for other shelving units in your bathroom. Less shelving units means more floor space, which leads to better functionality for your bathroom in the end.

Tile Work

Adding custom tile work to your shower can take your bathroom to the next level. Tile work makes a one-of-a-kind masterpiece, meaning that no one else will have a bathroom like yours. The wow factor will make you be glad that you did it every single time you step foot in your own bathroom. Guests will want to check out your bathroom, and you will want to show it off. You can’t have custom tile work with a tub.
