Customizing your Shower

Above is a customized shower remodel Jonathan designed and installed a year ago. It was carefully measured (as all of our remodels are) to fit the space. One piece bath and shower units can be found in many retail outlets.  They are a popular ‘quick fix’ alternative that ’do-it-yourself-ers’ often buy for their bathroom remodel.  At first glance it may appear to be the best option, but look again:

• First, How do you get it in your bathroom? One piece units often don’t fit into existing bathrooms.  Often a wall or door frame must be removed, adding to the over-all installation cost, time, and upheaval to your daily routine.

• One piece units don’t allow for customization.  Windows become a costly problem.  Shower pans are very often unusual sizes or shapes. Often the drain is located in the wrong place for a one piece unit to work. The location of grab bars, fixtures, etc. are harder to find where you want them, because you can’t change their location. Customizing allows you to get what you need where you need it. Windows, drains, grab bars, etc. are placed around YOUR design goals!

Even with the simple shower shown above, the best option was a customized remodel. Best-Fit Bath can design and install the tub or shower YOU NEED in your home! We consider everything; size and space, plumbing, possible problems of water damage, mold issues, and fixtures. Design colors and styles are also much better and more plentiful if you customize instead of go for a one-piece unit.
