Your bathroom is a high-traffic area of your home, so it should be designed to withstand years of heavy use. However, the reality is often far from the ideal situation. When your bathroom starts to exhibit signs of wear and tear, know that there are things you can do to improve the situation.
In this blog post, HomePride, one of the leading walk-in bath installation companies in the area, discusses common bathroom problems and explains how our products and services can solve them.
Shower Pan Problems
Shower pans, typically made of lead or vinyl, are installed under the tile floor of a shower to catch any water that may seep through, preventing water from leaking into the room. These shower pans age and deteriorate over time, resulting in leaks that can cause mold growth near the base of the shower. Other problems that could arise include pans that flex or bend underfoot.
Various factors such as improper installation or subpart materials can also cause your shower pan to fail. To avoid this, the best course of action to take is to work with a reliable shower and walk-in bath conversion contractor like HomePride.
Accessibility Issues
As the human body ages, mobility can be compromised. Needless to say, weak knees and a slippery bathroom floor is not a good combination. While you can’t stop aging, you can improve accessibility in your home, starting with your bathroom. Low step-in heights for walk-in baths, wider doors and multiple touch points make getting in and out of the tube easier and safer.
As one of the area’s best walk-in bath companies, HomePride can help you find comprehensive solutions to your bathroom’s aesthetic and functionality issues. Call us today at (303) 558-5225 to schedule an appointment. We look forward to working with you!
