Home & Garden Improvements

Now that showers have become every bit as important as baths in modern bathrooms, there is a wide range of shower enclosures available to suit any shape or size of available space. Of course, when it comes to price, you can find anything from the expensive and luxurious to the basic and budget-friendly.

If you are looking to install a shower cubicle into a small bathroom the best option to go for would be one of the sliding-door designs with a curved shower tray. In comparison to the swinging-door varieties on the market, this type of shower enclosure will only need half the space, and with a curvaceous design will also add an extra element of style to your bathroom. Fortunately, the size of shower cubicles can also be set to suit most requirements.

More extravagant options include the wet-room style of shower enclosures, which are usually the centre features in modern bathrooms and will also take up plenty of space; the walkthrough wet-rooms will be a really elegant instalment in any bathroom, but the regular enclosed showers will also offer plenty of room.

As well as the wealth of shower cubicles that are on offer, showerheads will also come in a variety of designs that will be able to complement other features in your bathroom, such as the bath and basin taps. Chrome is easily the most common finish, but there are still plenty of brass showerheads to choose from. The shade of the glass will also be something to consider, with clear and frosted being among the most popular.
