The holidays are around the corner, and if you have someone in your life who’s upgrading their bathroom, helping them invest in a tub to shower conversion is an excellent holiday gift.
A tub to shower conversion is exactly what it sounds like. Replace your old bathtub with a walk-in shower that will make you never want to go back. Here are three reasons why.
1. Prevent slips and falls
If you’re remodeling your bathroom, preventing slips and falls should be on your priority list. Most household accidents happen in the bathroom thanks to slippery floors.
One factor that most people don’t think about is the risk of falling when getting in and out of the tub. Showers are easier to enter thanks to their low threshold. Take out the large step going in and out of your shower and you’ll notice the difference.
2. Accessibility
Accessibility in the bathroom is critical for people who are aging and want to remain in their home for as long as possible. A tub to shower conversion can also help people with mobility issues get in and out of the bath easier.
If you’re worried about not having a place to sit, many showers have built-in seating. This is great for people who cannot stand for long, and for some bathers to have an easier time shaving.
3. You’ll love the difference
Even if you’re not too concerned about slips and falls, a tub to shower conversion is amazing for other reasons. Once you sit in the shower and fell the water rushing down – without the need to stand there – you’ll never go back!
