Shower pans ARE NOT a sexy topic. Ok – they’re sexier than talking about your shower drain…but not by much. However, if you’ve experienced these 5 problems, you’ll come to the realization shower pans are a more important than you thought. Problem #1 – Your ‘cost-effective’ plastic shower pan (or expensive hand-built tile shower) failed […]
If you WISH you had room for a big shower, but you know ‘that ain’t happening,’ you’re likely debating whether to install an alcove shower or a corner shower in your smaller-than-you’d-like space. And while both are available in multiple finishes, in an array of sizes, with different wall surrounds, glass thicknesses, and shower door […]
Do your tub curtains have you so frustrated you KNOW (even if it’s the last thing you do) you’re going to replace them with glass doors in your upcoming bathtub replacement? Have you had it ‘up to here’ (as Mom used to say) with moldy, smelly curtains? You’re also sick of cleaning water off the […]
Most people have heard of FOMO (the Fear of Missing Out). However, I’d argue a bigger fear which is not often talked about is FOSU (this would be the Fear of Screwing Up). And you know if you’re remodeling a bathroom – or making selections for several new home bathrooms – you’ll have to make […]
If you need a safer shower pan in your bathroom remodel or new home and don’t have a clue which option is best for you, I can tell you you’re not alone. You see I’ve worked with thousands of people who want to ‘age in place’ or their mobility is not as good as they’d […]
As if making selections for your bathroom remodel wasn’t tough enough, you have the misfortune of also needing a custom shower pan. And talk about confusing. Here’s a few things which have you flummoxed (and is that not the weirdest word in the world or what?). Should I choose a tile – or grout free […]
I bet you’re saying right now – WOW – I get to read an article about shower drains and figuring out a smarter shower drain location. Now I’ve earned the right to say those epic words of Chaz Reinhold (Owen Wilson) in the hilarious movie Wedding Crashers who said, “I’m living the dream!” OK, in […]
If you have to go into Bed, Bath and Beyond ONE MORE TIME to buy ANOTHER shower curtain for your kid’s hall bathroom you’re going to scream! And you’re certainly NOT LOOKING FORWARD TO cleaning (AGAIN) the dirt and hair out of the shower door track in your master bathroom either. You’re desperately trying to […]
The options are overwhelming. Should you choose a pivoting shower door with a matte black finish? Would a 3/8” thick sliding (or bypass) glass door work better in your small bathroom? Or maybe you should go with a walk-in glass shower with no door. It would be so simple to get in. No matter what […]
As a guy who leads a business which wholesales and installs bathroom products, I can’t tell you how many times I’ve seen men and women (husbands, wives and partners) bicker over their bathroom remodeling project. Fortunately, I’ve never seen anyone (thus far) comes to blows over the project. That’s certainly a good thing! He (just […]
