Finding the Perfect Shower Installation for Your Bathroom Remodel

A corner shower installation in a small bathroom

A corner or “neo-angle” shower installation is a great choice for small bathrooms.

If you’re remodeling your bathroom, or perhaps you need a shower remodel, you may not be aware of the variety of options available for your shower installation. Depending on your comfort, accessibility, and design needs, the shower that is right for you will be different. Read our guide below for help navigating the shower installation options for your bathroom remodel. 

Questions to Ask Yourself Before Choosing a Shower Installation

Before you begin your search for the perfect shower, you need to know what your design and function goals are for your shower and bathroom. Asking yourself these questions will help you figure out what you want from your shower installation: 

  • How many bathrooms do we have in our home?
  • What are our other bathing features?
  • Will this shower be shared among multiple people?
  • How old are the users, and will they need assistance?
  • Do we plan on living here for a long time?
  • What is our budget?
  • How much shower maintenance do we want?

The Best Shower Installation for Saving Space

If you don’t have too much space to spare in your bathroom, then a neo-angle shower may be your best option. Alternately called a “corner shower,” these shower installations sit in the corner of the bathroom and use existing bathroom walls as part of the shower enclosure. This saves space, as well as money on materials and installation labor. 

The Best Shower Installation to Grow Old With

If you are planning to stay in your current home permanently, or if you have older relatives living with you, you may get the best return on your investment with a handicap-accessible roll-in shower. These accessible showers are built with the following features: 

  • Barrier-free entry
  • Easy-to-reach faucet controls
  • Handheld shower wand
  • ADA-Compliant grab bars
  • Slip-resistant flooring
  • Optional built-in or portable shower seating

With no step threshold, this shower makes entry accessible for those in wheelchairs and walkers. The other features prevent falls and slips that can cause much more damaging injuries to an older person. For a stylish benefit, these shower installations give an open, airy feel that helps the rest of your bathroom feel large and contemporary. 

The Best Shower Installation for Multiple Users

If your new shower is going to be shared between multiple family members, you should consider the versatile tub-shower combo. Combining both features into one provides the most flexibility for multiple users who all have different bathing preferences and needs. 

The Best Shower Installation for Relaxation 

If you want your new shower or bathroom remodel to have a spa-like feel, acquiring a few notable shower features will help turn your new shower into a luxurious spot for relaxation and unwinding. You may want to add: 

  • Custom-styled shower walls
  • Glass shower doors
  • Rain-style showerheads
  • Multiple showerheads and faucets
  • Built-in shelving
  • Integrated soap caddies and foot pedestals
