The difference between a shower or a bathtub might not mean much to some people but according to a Home Design Trends survey, more than 60 percent of homeowners preferred a shower over a bathtub. Thinking about converting your bathtub to a shower? Keep these things in mind:
- Safety: Getting in and out of showers are much easier to do. With the high sides on a bathtub, you risk the chance of slipping and getting hurt.
- Appearance: Bathtub to shower conversions open up your bathroom. Walk-in showers can make your bathroom look larger because the shower base seems to take up less space. The variety of door options can also help give off the illusion of space.
- Easy to clean: It is much easier to clean a shower stall than it is to clean a bathtub, especially if time is not on your side. Showers also provide you with more space to move around so getting to those little nooks and crannies will be a breeze!
- Style: Going for a more modern look? Showers tend to do just that! With hundreds of styles to choose from, there’s something for everybody. Not to mention the remodel will likely pay off when you are looking to sell your home in the future. (TIP: If you are looking to sell your home, real estate agents are adamant that to preserve marketability, converting a bathtub to shower will only pay off if you have at least one other bathroom with a bathtub.)
