Bath renovation will not only increase your home’s value but also its functionality and safety. You can take it as an opportunity to improve the accessibility of your bathroom, especially if you want to age in place. One upgrade to consider when planning your project is a tub-to-shower conversion.
Here are reasons a tub-to-shower conversion is great for those who want to age in place.
Make Your Bathroom a Safer Place
Replacing your tub with a shower will open up your bathroom. It will help lower the chances of fall and slip accidents because you won’t need to step out of a slippery tub. You won’t also need to worry about tub drainage problems.
The bathroom is one of the most common areas in your home where accidents occur. Invest in safety features, such as grab bars and a shower seat in your bathroom remodel. These features will make you more comfortable while taking a shower since you don’t need to sit down to floor-level.
Your Bathroom Will Be Easier to Maintain
Performing strenuous maintenance tasks can become a challenge as you get older. Fortunately, a tub-to-shower conversion will make taking care of your bathroom easier. Modern showers are made from low-maintenance materials and offer excellent resistance to mold and mildew.
It Gives Room for Customization
You can add various features to your new shower for a safer, more luxurious, and comfier bathing experience. For instance, a corner bench is a great place to unwind as you let steam envelope your body. This project gives you the freedom to add shower features and accessories you’ve always wanted in your bathroom.
