Tub and shower area


Vanity wall


The starting point
The original bathroom had a corner garden tub and a separate, narrow shower with a framed glass door. The tub took up space the homeowners never used, and the shower felt cramped.
What we did
- Removed the tub, the old shower walls, shower pan and framed glass door
- Extended the shower into the old tub area for a walk-in shower about 9 ft by 3.5 ft
- Built a new curb, shower pan liner and sloped mud bed, with a new drain and valve
- Tiled the shower floor to ceiling and kept the arched window as the focal point
- Installed a new double vanity with two faucets, new floor tile and a new toilet
- Replaced the shut-off valves and patched the slab where the old tub plumbing was capped
