Keep everyone in your home happy, whether they prefer a long bath at the end of the day or don’t want to wait for use of the shower in the morning. It’s easier to bathe small kids in tubs, but once they are in their teens they’ll likely prefer showers. Showers can cut down on energy and water use, but your teenager may hang out there too long for you to benefit from the results. Whichever types of family rules you decide to set, a tub shower combo provides you with the most flexibility and the best chance for everyone to make it out in once piece in the morning.

This flexibility extends to the occasional guest. Your grandmother will be relieved she doesn’t have to carefully navigate getting into a tub. Provide a teak shower seat to help her even more. Thinking a tub shower combo might be right for you? First consider the different configurations available for purchase. Look at the layout of your bath. Will it need to be fitted between two corners or will one end of the tub be exposed, requiring a special shower door enclosure? There are many pre-made tub shower combo units on the market to fit your needs.

Finally, consider the wall finish and the fixture types. These choices will ensure that your tub and shower combo looks like a custom design. Wall tiles come in a variety of colors and textures such as ceramic, granite and recycled glass if you prefer a modern shower design. Bathtubs often come in standard white but can be coated to match any tile shade you have in mind. It’s not necessary to match, but you should try to be creative in order to have a cohesive tub shower combo design.

Frameless shower doors, of course do not have any aluminum frames that helps support them. Instead, all of the handles and hinges are attached through the glass itself. Therefore the type of glass that is used is much heavy and thick. The glass is also placed through a tempering process which gives it the look of high fashion and helps it to be a lot more durable. Because of the thick, heavy glass and the tempering process that it goes through it is not easily broken. However, since there is always that possibility, you can feel safe knowing that the temper process will cause it to break into very small, tiny pieces, which helps reduce the risk of injury.

A lot of people choose this type of shower door because it gives off the feeling that the room is bigger or more spacious than it is.

Finally, this type of shower is easier to clean and does not get the mold build up that other bathroom showers tend to have. One good tip to remember when keeping it clean is to always try to wipe it down after each and every use to help prevent soap film from building up.

If you choose to install it yourself, make sure that you take any measurements after any tile or marble has been installed. This type of shower door is custom made, therefore, correct measurements for installation is extremely important.
