People often decide to remodel their bathrooms in order to install or improve their showers. This article will provide you with a few ideas on how you can install a small bathtub shower.

Most people love taking a long relaxing shower now and then, but due to the busy lives we lead we usually end up having to take showers. If you are thinking about installing or improving your small bathtub shower you have various options such as installing it in an alcove, or replacing your current tub with a new one. You even have a few unorthodox options such as turning your entire bathroom into a wet room. The following will provide you with a few ideas on how to fit small shower bathtubs.

One of the first options you should consider is to simply replace the tub you already have with a new small bathtub shower. This can be a costly so its really only recommended if the unit you have now isnt functioning properly. However, if you need something new to match the dcor of the room and you have the money it remains a good solid option.

If you have a tub already but it did not have a shower built in, it is usually a more cost effective plan to just install a shower head into your already existing tub. This is the preferred method for most people because its so easy to do and it doesnt cost much. You will also have to install a shower-curtain rod or screens in order to keep the floor from getting soaked. Whether or not this is a do it yourself job depends on if you have had plumbing experience or not. If you dont then you could risk getting severe leaks and other problems in the future.

Installing a small bathtub shower in an alcove may be the best option for you if you have the right shape of bathroom. This technique is not used all that often, but when it is it can be an effective way to make the most out of the little bit of room you have available.

One extreme option you may want to consider is to convert your entire bathroom into a wet room. In this method you are going to remove the floor you have now and install a huge shower tray on the floor. This means that you wont be able to use your bathroom for anything else really, but think of all the space you will have! Not the most common way to install a small bathtub shower, but it is done occasionally and works great if you have a really small bathroom already.

Finally, one more solution is to simply clear out a corner in your bathroom, if there isnt already one clear, and install a small bathtub shower there. As you can see, there are many different ways to install small shower bathtubs, and these are just a few examples.
