Acting as a hybrid between an open-plan wet room and fully-enclosed shower cubicle, a walk-in shower offers easy, low-level access and a luxuriously spacious showering area.
Why is it called a walk-in?
A walk-in shower has no door – hence the ‘walk-in’ – but it does include at least one shower screen. Walk-in showers come in two main styles. The single entry has access at one end, which is great for installing in a corner or alcove. A double entry design is fixed centrally and can be accessed from either end.
Should I go for a tray or tank the floor?
Tanking the floor, and walls, will provide completely level access and is worth considering if you have less-abled users or want to future-proof your home. Tanking will also provide the slickest, designer look. However, taking the tray route means you’ll avoid the hassle and expense of tanking.
