I can’t believe I’m going to tell you this. Although I’ve written over 1,000 bathroom remodeling articles, and spoken to contractors who specialize in the accessible, age in place and ADA (Americans with Disability Act) shower market, and earned the CAPS (Certified Aging in Place) designation, I still...

My company wholesales and installs showers in new homes and remodeling projects so you might wonder why the heck I’d talk about things YOU’LL REGRET in a new shower. Well, it’s because I’ve heard sad stories from homeowners about Shower Remodeling Jobs Gone Wild (or bad). I’ve heard about leaking... Continue reading
