We often provide these conversions to secondary bathrooms, where the kids have gotten older, and require more space without the requirement of a tub. However, this is also a very common request for homeowners that have bathrooms with limited space, or a tub that is rarely used. In this situation, we will remove the tub and shower and convert one of those spaces to a larger standup shower. The remaining space can often be used to create additional storage in the form of a linen closet. In other words, either the existing shower is expanded once the tub is removed, or the larger Tub location is converted to a large shower, while the existing smaller shower is converted to a linen closet.
Other options include adding grab bars, recessed, shower, niches, Glass coatings for easier cleaning, and seats are custom benches. Please see our blog post.
For more details on a complete custom shower build out. See our photo gallery for examples of some of these tiled shower conversions.
