Are you looking for a way to upgrade your bathroom? Here are four reasons why a shower replacement with glass is the perfect idea.
Increased Property Value
Even if you don’t intend to move anytime soon, you should always keep the value of your home in mind. You never know when a new opportunity will arise or even if you will need to borrow against your home. A glass shower gives your bathroom a luxury feel, which is very attractive to potential buyers.
Long-Term Savings
Over time, residue builds up on your shower curtain, and you have no option but to throw it away. Not only is that wasteful, but it costs you money. Most experts agree that you should replace the curtain liner at least every six months. Additionally, shower curtain rods and rings corrode and break, so you have to replace them as well. With a glass shower, you don’t have to worry about any of that. No more buying plastic curtains that will end up in a landfill in a few months.
Customization and Versatility
You might not realize it, but glass showers are versatile and customizable. They come in multiple styles and finishes to suit your preferences and bathroom design. If you want more light in the shower, get clear glass. If you prefer more privacy, get frosted or patterned glass. Hinged glass doors have a more traditional look, but sliding doors save space. Whatever your needs or preferences are, you can get a glass shower to match.
Improved Safety
It’s an embarrassing way to hurt yourself, but slipping in the shower is a real risk. With a shower curtain, you can get tangled and trip, especially if it’s too long for your shower. Shower curtains also make the shower darker, increasing the risk you’ll slip on something you couldn’t see. Glass showers let the light in, so you can see what you’re doing while you shower. Even better, glass isn’t made from any toxic chemicals, so you don’t have to worry about what you’re breathing in with your shower steam.
