Walk-In Shower Installation in Clayton: what to know

Walk-in shower installation in Clayton is a popular upgrade in the town's newer homes, many of which came with a small fiberglass stall or a tub-shower. A tiled walk-in with frameless glass gives the primary bath a custom look.

Many Clayton households plan to stay in their homes for years, and a walk-in shower with a low or no curb, a bench and blocking for grab bars is easier to use at any age.

Whether a curbless entry is practical depends on the floor structure. A contractor can check whether your bathroom is over a slab, a crawl space or upstairs framing and what each means for recessing the shower.
