Bathtubs are undeniably more aesthetically pleasing than showering in an enclosed stall. But sometimes, they’re just not practical – especially if you want to install one in your bathroom that was initially designed for a tub. If you have limited space or difficulty accessing your bathtub (due to old age or disability), converting it into a walk-in shower is essential. That way, you can still enjoy all of its luxurious pleasures, and get clean simultaneously! Here are some of our favorite reasons why converting your bathtub is worth considering. ## No Time To Clean? – Maintaining an open shower space has many advantages over owning a conventional bathtub.

The most obvious of which is ease of cleaning – A closed-stall wall will prevent dirt and grime from splashing onto your walls when taking a hot or cold shower. It’ll also help prevent mildew from building up inside as well! Another significant advantage is accessibility. Since showers are usually set on an incline, people who may need assistance entering their home won’t have trouble entering their shower since it’s floor level. And for those with physical impairments that cause them difficulty getting down on their knees; walk-in showers make it so much easier to maintain mobility during bathing/showering.

Lastly, maintenance costs are significantly lower than other varieties of baths. Since open spaces allow sunlight, you won’t need to worry about nasty bacteria growing along with your tiles and grout lines like what happens in a traditional bathtub! Overall cost aside, however; safety always comes first… All these benefits do add up quite nicely!
