Stunning Walk-In Showers

Doorless Walk-In Shower with Marble Surround and Floor Tile

This spacious walk-in shower features double showerhead fixtures and marble tiles on the shower walls and shower floor. Two shower control valves are plumbed for each shower head and are located outside of the shower stall so you can turn the water on and allow it to get warm prior to entry. It's worth noting that a large open walk-in shower can get drafty particularly during colder times of year. Choosing a dark-colored vanity with clean lines to contrast with the lighter tile on the walls creates a modern bathroom look.

Adjacent Bathtub and Shower with Subway Tile

This white subway tile walk-in shower design features a frameless glass wall and glass shower door. Keep in mind, showers with clear glass enclosures visible to the rest of the bathroom may not be ideal for all customers. Opaque or frosted glass is a popular alternative. Note that the subway tile in the shower extends beyond the shower, along the wall, and surrounds the soaking tub. Lastly, the shower is completed with a mosaic tile floor to prevent slipping when wet.

Small Bathroom Remodel Walk-In Shower Design

Small bathrooms are where many walk-in showers flex their efficient design. This small doorless shower uses a shower curtain since there isn't sufficient room for a glass door. An accordion door is an optional choice, however, those have a tendency to leak due to many moving parts (they're also a bear to clean). Shower curtains are an easy to clean option because replacing one is inexpensive. On the other hand, tossing plastic curtains in the trash isn't an eco-friendly solution.

Spacious Walk-In Shower with Built-in Bench Seat

Location, location, location isn't just real-estate jargon, the location of the shower bench relative to the handheld shower wand and shower niche is perfect for people with mobility issues. However, shower seats have seen a rise in demand for all consumers, and for good reason. It's a great place to relax, and it makes tasks like shaving your legs much easier. This shower features ceramic tile walls and the tile used in the storage niche brings visual interest to the space.

Rain Shower Head and Matte Black Fixtures

This bathroom's shower enclosure is considered frameless due to the minimal quantity of connecting hardware pieces, and the modern look is accentuated by the combination of gray tiles and matte black hardware.

Keeping Things Modest with Frosted Glass

Nearly all of the glass shower enclosures and doors are available with frosted or privacy glass. Privacy glass is particularly popular with busy households where the walk-in shower is installed in a primary bathroom. This type of opaque glass allows a person to shower with modesty while others use the bathroom to get ready. Families with few bathrooms in their homes understand very well how important it is to utilize the space efficiently in the morning.

If the look of privacy glass doesn't fit your style, many homeowners utilize glass block. This material provides a retro look and checks all the boxes for privacy concerns.

Renovation Ideas to Create Natural Light in Your Shower

This easy to step in shower has high gloss shower tiles which allows for even more light to brighten a dark space. Opting for a window that opens rather than a fixed type, you can properly vent the shower area for quicker drying to prevent mold and mildew.
