Refresh the Look of Your Bathroom with a New Shower

Make your morning routine an invigorating, stylish part of your day with a new shower or shower module. There are two general styles of showers: freestanding showers and showers with a bathtub combination. Freestanding showers are generally used when a separate freestanding tub is in place or in bathrooms where a bathtub is not required. With careful measuring and some simple considerations, it is easy to find a shower that will be a treat to use every day.

Key First Steps in Choosing a Shower

Take Careful Measurements

Before shopping for any large components for the bathroom, it is essential to take careful measurements and to create a floor plan for the space. Will the shower be nestled into a corner or will it have a more spacious, rectangular configuration? Ceiling height is also an important factor, as many modules have that portion integrated into the design.

Select a Style

Look at design inspiration images to find a bathroom photograph that speaks to your design style. When you have an inspiration photo with a clear design style, it is easy to refer back to it when selecting your shower, fixtures, and lighting for the bathroom. Every element selected for the bathroom should fall into the same overall style, whether it be clean and modern or ornate and Victorian in design.

Selecting a Shower Base

The first step in selecting a new shower is choosing the base. This is the pan that acts as the shower floor. It is often textured to prevent slipping and arrives set up with a hole for the drain. The shower base can be used in conjunction with ready-made shower walls or integrate into a design with a tile enclosure.

Choosing Shower Walls

The shower walls are what gives your bathroom its distinct style. They can be simple and clean, or they can be more intricate. Some even offer integrated shelves that make it easy to organize soaps, shampoo, and other shower essentials. Shower walls are faster and easier to install than tile and make the shower easy to wipe clean.

Opting for Shower Modules

If finding the right shower wall and base pan combinations seems daunting, choosing a shower module can be a convenient alternative. This all-in-one design combines a base pan with the shower walls — and even a ceiling — to create a single, easy-to-install set. They come in a wide range of sizes and styles to choose from, from one that nestles into the smallest of corners to one large enough to create a spa-like experience. Their affordability and cohesive design makes them a popular choice for secondary bathrooms throughout the home.

Some shower modules feature the pan and walls only while others are more inclusive in design, featuring fixtures that complement the shower. Make sure to check out the specifications for the shower module when making final selections to see just what it includes. There are many shower modules specifically designed to be handicapped accessible, making it easy to retrofit an existing bathroom when new medical needs arise.
