How to Keep Your Shower Squeaky Clean

Break away from grimy and moldy shower curtains and upgrade to shower doors. You have the option between sliding or hinged shower doors with an array of design and styles to choose from. You're sure to find the perfect fit for your style and comfort.

So you've just had a beautiful glass shower door installed by the pros at Re-Bath of Richmond. Now what? It's up to you to keep it squeaky clean. If you do not clean your shower frequently, soap scum can build up. To avoid this, make sure you run a squeegee down your shower door after a steamy shower. This will also keep mold and mildew at bay.  

If you are big into the "go green" movement, you can clean your shower door with environmentally friendly products. A 50/50 solution of vinegar and water can make your shower door shine like new. Scrub this mixture onto the glass with a microfiber cloth. The microfiber cloth will prevent you from streaking out. With these helpful tips, your glass shower door will shine bright like a diamond.

Walk-In Tubs Make Senior Independence A Reality


Many seniors choose to live at home, instead of opting for a senior living community. Living alone at home comes with its own challenges. Here at Re-Bath of Richmond, your health and safety are our main concerns. Bathing in a shower can be dangerous for seniors due to the increased risk of a slip and fall. Everyone should be able to bathe safely. We can install a walk-in tub in your bathroom to make your home more senior friendly. 

Easier Accessibility
Traditional bathtubs are difficult to get in and out of. Conversely, our walk-in tubs come fully equipped with a door that is easier to maneuver. 

Take A Seat 
Our walk-in tubs have a built-in seat. Having a seat in the tub makes bathing a comfortable and enjoyable experience.

Better Balance
We can install grab bars in the bathtub. This will help you maintain your balance while entering and exiting the tub.

Reduce Slip and Falls 
We also suggest placing a nonskid mats outside of your or bathtub. It can help prevent potential slip and falls after bathing.
