- Bathtub was from 1956, looks beat up, discolored and losing enamel coating
- Wauwatosa homeowners opting for bathtub to shower conversion
The old bathtub was 1956, the time the home was built. The bathtub was small and the fixtures were functioning poorly. Often times homeowners who live in an older home opt for a bathtub to shower conversion. We see that the bathtubs original to the home look very beat up and discolored. Many times bathtubs are degraded from mold and mildew or are chipping. In this case the bathtub was losing its enamel coating.
The Wauwatosa homeowner decided they were going to go with a bathtub to shower conversion. This is an excellent option for those who want to make their bathroom space appear larger. By removing the old bathtub and opting for a bathtub to shower conversion, the bathroom will look more open and spacious. This is a common reason why people in older, smaller homes opt for a bathtub to shower conversion.
Before Bathtub To Shower Conversion in Wauwatosa Home
- Fixtures leak, poor water pressure, hard to operate
Our team at TightSeal Exteriors & Baths plan to remove the old bathtub and replace it with a walk-in shower. The walk-in shower is handicap accessible and makes the space appear much larger. The homeowners will no longer have to step over the ledge in the bathtub in order to get in. Their new handheld shower head has excellent water pressure and no longer leaks.
We also added in corner bench seating so the homeowner can sit comfortably in their shower. We updated all the grab bars and also put in a handy corner caddy. This will hold all the shampoos, soaps and body washes. There is a lot more room now in the bathroom following this bathtub to shower conversion.
