Tile Walk In Showers

Contemporary bathrooms are changing their styles and leaning towards a more open decorative flair. Tile walk in showers are growing in popularity as they can be tiled to match any colored motif or theme and when dealing in simple ceramic, costs stay down. Tile walk in showers are convenient in the morning when you’re groggy and don’t want to lift your feet. They’re also quick clean up after a shower for maintenance that will keep your walk in shower looking great for years to come. It’s certain that walk in showers are a growing fad and the reasons are simple: style and affordability.

Advantages of Tile

Quite possible the best aspect of getting your walk in shower done in tile is the low price of the work. Ceramic tiles and the supplies needed to properly lay them are cheap. What can get expensive is if you decide you    

want larger, granite or marble tiles. These materials can be expensive. Also if you need small tiles set or a mosaic created, expect to pay more for labor than a standard tile job. Ceramic tiles are porous by nature so they’re pressure treated, then they’re coated in a waterproofing material, then fired in a kiln to harden them. This makes tiles dense and waterproof which is ideal for bathroom flooring and walls. Clean up is as simple as a quick squeegee and if you keep up with regular maintenance you’ll never experience any grout mildew.

Walk In for Practicality and Convenience

Who hasn’t been in the situation where the morning has your eyes plastered shut, stumbling and mumbling around the bathroom with every ounce of regret you can muster about getting out bed? Everyone’s been at the point where they just don’t have the energy to run through the normal morning routine.Wouldn’t it be great if you could drag your feet all the way into the shower until the steam and hot water wakes you up? Tile walk in showers offer this comfort. Since cleaning is a breeze too, the walk in shower is a much more practical solution than the bathtub/ shower combination. Having gorgeous tile flooring and walls may be stylish but it’s sensible and easy too!

Consider Stone Tiles

If you’re aiming to get a tile walk in shower that stands out from the bunch and really increases the value of your home, consider going a step up from ceramic tiles and getting some kind of stone. Quartz, marble and granite are all great stone tile materials that you can use for your bathrooms and walk in showers throughout the house. While there aren’t as many colors as there are in ceramic tile, these natural stones have plenty of different shades and hues that can accent an existing color scheme or be paired with a new one in case of renovation. These materials always look classy and never go out of style. In addition, many stone tiles have great warrantees so be sure to ask before you buy!
