Showers

The most common kind of bathroom shower in Australia, it consists of a tall square or rectangular shower box, usually made of glass or clear plastic, surrounding a shower head.

A neo-angle shower has the outside corner removed and replaced with a shower door to create a narrow five sided enclosure. This makes them the perfect match for small bathrooms.  

In some cases a shower system can be installed above the bath, allowing for both shower and bath to occupy the same space. It can be wall mounted or handheld.

One of the more luxurious options available, a walk in shower consists of a tiled area and occasionally a screen to prevent splashing. The shower isn’t enclosed, so you can walk in and out without opening a door.

Shower and bath screens are versatile bathroom fixtures that provide a barrier to contain water while showering or bathing. They come in various styles, such as clear glass or frosted designs, offering both functionality and aesthetic appeal to your bathroom space.

High quality showers are often reinforced with extra materials to prevent plastic or metal from warping or changing shape in the heat. This additional reinforcement also makes them stronger and more able to withstand accidental damage.

Some high quality options have a hydrophobic coating applied that allows water to run off the walls cleanly, without leaving any drops behind. This also helps prevent grime and mould from accumulating on the inside.

When designing or renovating your bathroom, the choices you make will inevitably be influenced by the spatial constraints and the budget at your disposal. For those fortunate enough to have expansive bathroom areas, incorporating a walk-in bathing area not only elevates the luxury quotient of your space but also provides an accessible and convenient bathing solution, particularly beneficial for families and individuals with mobility challenges. The openness and barrier-free design of walk-in options cater to a seamless and indulgent bathing experience, offering both aesthetic appeal and practical benefits.

Conversely, for homeowners navigating the challenges of more limited square footage, selecting a neo-angle configuration can be a strategic move. This design, known for its angular, corner-fitting shape, efficiently utilizes the available area, thereby avoiding the overcrowding of your bathroom's layout. Despite its space-saving advantages, one must consider the practicality of such configurations, especially when it comes to bathing young children, as the reduced space can make this task more cumbersome.

For households with children, and where space permits the inclusion of a bathtub, opting for a combination unit that features a handheld showerhead might present the best of both worlds. This setup offers the flexibility of quick, convenient showers and the option for more leisurely baths, accommodating the diverse needs of a family. It's an especially prudent choice for families looking to maintain functionality without sacrificing the comfort of a full bath.

For those with a more flexible budget, the possibility of customising your bathing space opens up. High-end designer models equipped with top-tier components not only promise longevity and superior performance but also come with enhanced features such as additional storage options and innovative water-saving technologies. Such bespoke installations can transform your bathroom into a personalized retreat, reflecting your taste and lifestyle preferences while ensuring that every detail, from the materials used to the storage solutions provided, is tailored to your needs.
