Luxury Walk-In Showers – Ways to Achieve It

Custom walk-in showers have become increasingly popular in recent years, as people are looking for ways to create more open and spacious bathroom remodeling . Many design elements can be incorporated into a walk-in shower, including a variety of materials and construction methods. Ideal for rooms big or small, walk-in shower designs should balance the practicality of a functional bathroom and the goal of luxurious bathroom design.

One of the most important decisions when designing a walk-in shower is what type of materials to use. There are a variety of different options available, including ceramic tile, stone, glass, and metal. Each material has its unique benefits and drawbacks, so you’ll want to research and ask your contractor to make recommendations for your project and goals for your space.  

Custom walk-in showers can be square or rectangular in orientation, using unique wall angles as well. To help you design the perfect bathroom with a custom walk-in shower, we’ve compiled our top ideas below.

Make it a Large Space – If your space allows for it, renovate your bathroom for a large walk-in shower. Adorn it with two shower heads, shower wall cutouts for your bathroom products, and more. You can even include Bluetooth technology for lighting, music, and so forth. If, however, you have a small bathroom, foregoing a bathtub for a walk-in shower area allows you to maximize the space you do have, so many homeowners go the walk-in shower route for this reason alone.

Utilize Corner Space & Wall Angles – Often found in the corner of the bathroom, walk-in showers are a brilliant solution to incorporate sloping ceilings or angled walls into the room’s overall design. Think about some of the more elegant walk-in showers you’ve seen. Was it a transformation of an awkward space to a beautiful new shower area?

Create a Wet Room – Blur the boundaries between the shower and the rest of the bathroom – a wet room is when the shower and bathroom space is all in one area, with no real division. The whole room becomes the shower – another trick for small bathrooms where every inch of space is critical. If you don’t want a wet room per se, consider a low-threshold shower tray to accomplish a sleek and simple entryway for that luxurious look.

Doorless Entry – More and more custom walk-in showers have a doorless entry. Shower doors are sometimes replaced by a half-sized patrician wall to conceal plumbing and a screen to divide up a large space, providing a barrier to items you want to keep dry such as towels and washcloths. The elimination of shower doors automatically makes the bathroom feel a bit more sophisticated and it’s one less item to clean.

Design Minimalism – For a uniform look throughout the entire bathroom, select wall and floor tile that compliment each other and don’t compete. The showerhead and other hardware should be simple and streamlined as well. In bathrooms, it’s best to select one statement feature to really shine, such as a unique tile pattern, tile with a pop of color, or a textured element like stone or wood. Just be sure it doesn’t make your walk-in shower and bathroom look too busy.

Incorporate Black and White Elements – Trendy with younger homebuyers are darker colors like black, charcoal, and gray. Yet, white floor and wall tile are equally as trendy and a classic choice. Both black and white are color choices that transcend time and we recommend simple, clean lines of the minimalist design as a base for your walk-in shower. Then, sprinkle in other elements like stone or wood for texture to define your theme of an “elegant” or “contemporary”bathroom for example.

Add a seat – A seat in a walk-in shower is ideal for individuals with accessibility needs or if you plan to stay in your current home as you age. Your bathroom can still be stylish with the addition of a seat for safety and comfort.

They were very professional. Quoted us a time frame and they were exact on the time frame. The were very clean as they cleaned up every night. Any questions I had they were very helpful. Overall a great experience. We plan on using them again if we decide to redo our bathrooms. The kitchen came out very nice and we are very happy with it.

This company is great. They did an awesome job on our remodel. The quality of work surpasses everything. All project hiccups were professionally handled and solutions came out better than planned. Jason Rossi and his lead foreman on our job Brian Smith are very professional. Brian provided a wealth of knowledge in regards to our entire first floor remodel project. Brian Smith is trustworthy and the quality of his work is impeccable. Job well done JRossi Construction!!

The work quality was outstanding, the crew friendly and a delight to work with, and they cleaned up after themselves and left the place in great shape! When I remodel my other unit, there is no doubt that Rossi Construction will be doing the work there also. I had an issue with the door quality of the cabinets and Rossi and his crew met with myself, and the Cabinet Representative immediately, and the issue was resolved to My Satisfaction. You can easily tell that Customer Satisfaction is what everyone in the organization is focused on. Great Job and thanks again, Ed.

Rossi just remodeled our hall bathroom and kitchen. They are incredibly skilled craftsmen who use the best products. We had two different men lead each project and they were both wonderfully skilled (cabinetry, tile, hardware installation, electric, plumbing, painting, etc.). They are honest, hardworking, on schedule, clean up after themselves, and fix problems. We highly recommend them.

Rossi Construction just finished renovating our veterinary hospital. The entire process from start to finish was flawless. Jason was the only contractor who looked at our space and was able to get a rough quote to us within 24 hours. Everything ran on schedule and within budget, and the final product was beautiful. Our project supervisor was incredibly knowledgeable and easy to work with. I highly recommend this company to anyone looking for construction work in the Tampa area.

The guys from Rossi do great work. We did a complete remodel of two levels of our house (we have a split level). The work included a full redesign of the master suite (took space from the bedroom to make a bigger bathroom and add a walk-in closet, also changed configuration of some windows), full redesign of main level (kitchen, living, and dining space) that included floating a sunken floor and removing walls to open the space, and cosmetic updates to the rest of the bedrooms (new doors, trim, paint, etc.). Only small issues were due to subcontractors, and Rossi made sure everything was brought up to expectation. We're super happy with the result and would not hesitate to use them on future projects.

I would highly recommend Rossi construction. Jason and his employees were very professional, very conscientious, and definitely went the extra mile to make sure I was happy with the project. If I emailed questions, they were promptly answered. I believe the pricing on the project was very fair. I am recommending them to all my friends. It was a great experience working with this contractor. I would hire them again in a heartbeat.

Overall, the remodel went quite well. The workmanship is very good.The crew was very punctual and professional. I found some minor issues that I pointed out to them, and they resolved them to our satisfaction. They could have done a better job with drop cloths in the hallways. There was a fair amount of joint compound that got tracked around on the carpet, and some of the dirt & debris got ground into the carpet. However, I consider this to be a minor issue, and would definitely consider using them again.
