If you’re planning a bathroom remodel, consider a curbless shower as one of its key features. In this blog post, DreamMaker Bath & Kitchen of Southern Lakes takes a look at the defining features of curbless showers and what makes it worth the bathroom cost.
What is a Curbless Shower?
Curbless showers, as the name implies, is a type of shower that doesn’t have a raised threshold. Also known as walk-in showers and barrier-free showers, curbless showers have minimal to no change in elevation between the bathroom and shower floor. One may choose flooring with a different color or texture to indicate transition between the two spaces.
Benefits of a Curbless Shower
A curbless shower offers the following benefits:
- Easy access. The primary benefit of a curbless shower is that it allows easy access to and from the shower. This allows people with limited mobility, including wheelchair users, to take showers unassisted.
- Low maintenance. Curbless showers have fewer crevices that allow easy cleaning and maintenance.
- Improved safety. The lack of a raised threshold helps reduce the risk of slips and falls.
- Spacious look. A curbless shower allows a more streamlined and open look. Together with features like wall-mounted fixtures, it can help create a more spacious look.
