In today’s fast paced world, convenience and value are two commonly used key words that automatically qualify activities and objects as desirable for purchase. They also imply practicality and common sense solutions to everyday situations. Consider applying these qualities to your home renovation, by installing a corner bath shower in the half baths throughout your home. As a result, not only will the resale value of your home increase considerably, but the added convenience of multiple showers will automatically increase the efficiency of your home.
Corner baths and showers are essentially a compact shower unit that fits snugly into the corner of a bathroom. The principle of the unit is that by occupying a corner, it will take up minimal space, while still providing the convenience and luxury of a shower unit in what would otherwise be considered a “half bath.” Although there are multiple varieties of styles, models, and sizes of bathroom corner showers, they are typically characterized by their ease of installation and their reasonable sale prices, making them attractive additions, particularly to older homes, as a simple method of modernizing and increasing a home’s efficiency.

The price of a corner shower unit will vary depending upon the features of the selected model. Basic units can be obtained for as little as $500.00 USD, while more luxury units may sell for up to $1,500.00 USD. These figures are merely ballpark, and with hundreds of manufacturers and retailers, prices may vary from the ones listed above. In order to gain a clear understanding of your anticipated price range, consider identifying the features that you would like to see included in your shower unit, and conducting a price comparison by visiting your local home outfitter location, or browsing the multiple online retail sites.
Features of the shower units may also vary. A basic unit will consist of wall panels, a shower door, and a base. Some units will be molded and sold and delivered in one piece, making for extremely simple installation, while other units are intended to be installed on-site. Styles also vary considerably. There are geometric square models, or ones that are rounded and feature sliding doors. The wall panels may be frosted or clear glass. Some more luxurious models available on today’s market also feature side and massage jets, which imply additional plumbing installation.
Regardless of the model of style of the corner bath shower that you select for your home, you will automatically benefit from the efficiency, convenience and great value that one of these units adds to any home. Happy shopping!
