Bath or walk-in shower: which suits your home?

A practical homeowner guide to choosing between a bath and walk-in shower during a bathroom refit.

Practical information to help you plan your enquiry. Every home and project is different.

Think about your household

A bath can suit family routines, while a generously sized shower may be more convenient for some adults. Consider how the room may need to work in future.

Look at floor space and access

Measure the room and consider door swings, screen positions, circulation space, steps and any awkward pipework routes.

Check existing plumbing and drainage

An installation may need different supply connections or drainage. The condition and location of existing pipes will affect how straightforward a change might be.

Consider water protection and cleaning

Correct waterproofing, sealing, drainage and suitable slip resistance matter, especially when choosing a low-level or walk-in shower.

Keep future usability in mind

Choose fittings and an arrangement that can be maintained and safely used over time, rather than selecting on appearance alone.
