Homeowners who are remodeling should consider getting a custom shower designed and built into their new bathroom. The shower and tub combination are standard in many homes, especially older homes. Tub shower combos are crowded and unappealing. Nobody enjoys soaking in a too short tub—especially if it has to be cleaned beforehand because that’s where everyone in the family showers!
Easy to Maintain, Accessible Custom Showers
A curbless shower can be a dream in the remodeled bathroom. Curbless showers are on trend partly because they are easier to clean. The lack of curb means no moldy build up that you will have to scrub, unlike most showers with sliding glass doors. These showers can be quite large and accommodate multiple people at the same time. They can be designed with gorgeous, unique tile patterns, custom niches, and other spa-like touches.
Additionally, curbless showers are accessible for those with mobility issues or homeowners who are aging in place within their homes. The lack of a curb makes the shower easy to roll into and eliminates a potential trip hazard. The shower floor remains somewhat flat, except with a gradual slope allowing water to flow down the drain. A squeegee can push excess water into the drain after each shower to keep it from sitting. Curbless showers with glass walls and doors also add a feeling of airiness to the entire showering experience.
Choose from Custom Shower Heads for the Ideal Showering Experience
If the curbless shower is an attractive idea, you can add more than one shower head for the ultimate experience. There are several types of shower heads you can consider for your custom shower remodel:
- Double shower heads (one on each side of the shower)
- Rain shower head
- Multiple shower heads at varying heights
- Flat shower heads
- Waterfall shower head
- Steam shower heads
As you can see, there are many options and you can get a customized bathing experience from your shower. Worried about increased water bill with extra shower heads? There are plenty to choose from that have water saving features while still providing an excellent shower.
Add What You Need: Seating, Storage, and Tech
Showers are no longer limited to a door, shower head, and a tub. Now you can include much more. Stylish custom shower benches are a hot new trend that you will want to check out. A homeowner who has mobility issues can appreciate a stylish shower bench for accessibility. If you install a steam shower head, a shower bench can be a perfect addition for you to have the relaxing home-spa moment you’ve been daydreaming about. Custom storage is also popular for the custom shower. You can create beautiful niche shelving from mosaic tiles that stores your shampoos and soaps.
Along with seating and storage, many homeowners are seeking out tech for their custom showers. Light therapy and aromatherapy options are available along with a customized audio experience for your shower. What a wonderful time to be alive!
Showers aren’t the same these days, and custom showers are more accessible than you realize. You won’t need to book a day spa or spend a weekend at a hotel for a pampered feeling. You can have it whenever you want it—right in your own home!
