Bathroom remodeling is an intimidating project to some, a weekend gig for others.
You can go small or large, whole hog or muted and scaled down.
If you're looking for something that gives your bathroom a whole new look consider getting a new shower enclosure.
Showers are available in a variety of standard sizes, shapes and styles.
Finish options include aluminum, chrome and glass.
You can dress your shower up or down by adding new fixtures such as shower heads, soap dishes, mirrors, even speakers if you are so inclined.
Shower enclosures no longer just square and boring.
Shapes include quarter circle, square, rectangular, pentagon and offset circle.
You can choose the style that best fits your available space.
If the standard options are not workable for you then you can have your shower enclosure custom made.
A popular new option is getting frameless doors featuring tempered glass panels and very little supporting hardware.
The effect is that the shower almost disappears into the room and you see a very streamlined appearance.
You can even get curved glass with or without a frame, or even a semi-frameless design.
Installation requires above average skills, so some homeowners will attempt to do it themselves, others will go as far as they can and then hire a professional plumbing or contractor to come in and finish the job.
The advantages of these types of enclosures are numerous.
They're easier to clean, have fewer corners and cracks to worry about, give your bathroom a modern, updated look, and you don't need a shower curtain.
Upon walking into the room you'll get a feeling of tranquility and not dirty chaos.
