If you have the space, consider a tub built for two. Whirlpool tubs, jetted tubs and air baths provide a place to relax, unwind and decompress at the end of your day. Adding one to your bathroom can help create the feeling of a luxury spa in the comfort of your own home. Whirlpool tubs come in a wide variety of different, shapes and sizes, all with a variety of features from positionable jets to aromatherapy and lights. Remodel your bathroom to include one and feel the difference it makes in the space. Determine the Placement A usable, comfortable whirlpool tub does not have to take up a lot of space in your bathroom. In fact, if you can fit a standard alcove tub into the space, you can fit a whirlpool tub. If your bathroom is tight on space, combine your tub and shower into one area, using an alcove design for your tub. For bathrooms that have a little more space, consider placing a slightly larger tub into the corner of the bathroom. If you are remodeling a large master bath ,...

You are remodeling your bathroom and you need a new shower/tub. Should you install a prefabricated (prefab) shower stall or construct a tiled shower stall ? Two Types of Shower Stalls Pre- fabricated shower stall units are formed in a factory, shipped to your home in one or several pieces, and are then installed in your bathroom. By contrast, the tiled shower is site-built, constructed from scratch by carpenters and tilers. Carpenters construct the frame, walling it in with a cement-based board such as Wonderboard. Tilers step in and finish the tilework. Types of Pre-fabricated Units They are composed of a shower pan and solid side panels . One deciding factor between one-piece or multi-piece units is whether you can get the one-piece unit through the doors of older homes. Homeowners often choose multi-piece units for this very reason. Multi-Piece Best Pick: Buy on Amazon - American Standard Acrylux 60 " x 32" Shower Kit If you are looking for a sleeker, better-styled showe...

In a 1993 U.S. Census Bureau report , 4.5 million people with disabilities reported having difficulty bathing, and 2.1 million had trouble using the toilet. Millions of people are inconvenienced--even endangered--by inaccessible bathrooms. Any impediment to easy access to the bathroom can lead someone to delay their bowel or bladder program. A bathroom that is easy to use protects your health ( see Figure 1 (cli...

March 15, 2012 Changing Out The Shower Water Valve Stems In Mom’s 50s Time Capsule Condo – Eeks!!!! By Sara In AZ This project, changing out the shower valve stems , probably has the most significance  to me of any project we did on the condo. I suppose it’s weird to say that  because you never ever see the valve stems, so just looking at the tub you would never know anything had been done.  But we had some real lows and highs during this project…….can we keep the original tile, do we have to rip it all down??? Let me tell you all about it. It all started off with the inspection. The inspector said that water was leaking from under the ‘hot’ side handle when you turned the faucet on. He also said that water still came out of the tub spout when you turned the shower on. We were partially aware of this problem before the inspector came through, and we thought it would not be a huge problem to take care of it. Here is my only close-up “before” picture of the handles. Sorry it is such a ...

Announcer: Today’s Homeowner with Danny Lipford , the voice of home improvement , with projects, tips and ideas to help you improve your home. Danny Lipford: We’re right in the middle of a two part renovation called Today ’s Bath, it involves the renovation and updating of two different bathrooms, one being a very small master bathroom that was in this area and then on the other side of the wall even a smaller bathroom that was kind of the guest bathroom and we’re making them a lot larger by encroaching into this area which was once the master bedroom . Now, by taking up this space we were able to create this very nice custom walk -in shower than a very long vanity, two different sinks, and this cozy little niche for the whirlpool tub. Also the existing guest bathroom ’s a lot larger, a lot more functional and we had enough space left over by encroaching into this bedroom to create a very nice...
