The bathroom is considered the most dangerous room in any home due to the high water usage and wet areas like bathtubs or showers. We may not always think about this, but as we age, the possibility of slipping and falling can begin to feel like a real concern.
Luckily for homeowners in Southwest Ohio and Atlanta, Georgia, there's MVP Walk-In Tub & Shower. We're a trusted bathroom remodeling contractor that places a strong emphasis on our aging in place solutions, including walk-in showers. When you sign up for an ADA-compliant shower remodel with our team, below are some of the perks you can look forward to.
Benefits of a Walk-In Shower Remodel
Accessible showers make excellent bathing options if you or someone in your household lives with limited mobility. While stepping up and over the lip of a standard bathtub-shower combination can be uncomfortable or even dangerous for some, ADA-compliant products have low or even no threshold, making them much easier to enter and exit.
These showers are also spacious, giving folks plenty of room to maneuver while utilizing the space, and feature non-slip flooring materials to greatly decrease the chances of slipping and falling. Even better, walk-in showers come with built-in seating options so that you can completely eliminate the chances of an accident by resting comfortably while you rinse off.
Some other safety features include:
- Grab Bars
- Handheld Shower Heads
- Accessible Controls
- Proper Ventilation
- Anti-Scald Faucets
- Easily-Reached Shelving
Premium Products for Your ADA-Compliant Remodel
Aside from enhanced safety, no-threshold showers can come with many other benefits depending on the manufacturer. A shower installation is still an investment after all, so it makes sense that these products should be high-performing and long-lasting as well as accessible.
At MVP, we prefer to work with reputable brands like Moen, Atlantis Whirlpools, Meditub and other members of the SW Corps Luxury Home Brands that produce replacement showers from durable and water-resistant materials. This way, our barrier-free showers can also offer advantages like:
- Impact- and Scratch-Resistant
- Won't Fade or Stain
- Minimal Upkeep Required
- Combats Mold and Mildew
Aside from their quality, walk-in showers also come in a variety of styles and aesthetics, so homeowners will still be able to find a fixture that complements the rest of their bathroom.
Long-Lasting Walk-In Shower Installations
These many benefits of walk-in showers may sound very advantageous, but whether or not a homeowner actually receives them depends on the quality of the installation. If inexperienced contractors don't prioritize exact measurements and an airtight fit, your new fixture could be prone to leaking or general inefficiency.
MVP is a local bathroom remodeler, and we care less about how many walk-in showers we install than we do the quality of each project we take on, because we want each and every customer to enjoy one of our high-performing fixtures for decades to come. In fact, we stand behind our craftsmanship long after we've completed an installation through our lifetime leak-proof warranty. This way, our customers rest assured that they'll never have to worry about dealing with a leaky shower replacement.
