Hello everyone,
I am currently thinking about our bathrooms, specifically the showers. Here is an example of the floor plan for the ground floor bathroom; the shower upstairs will have the same installation situation:
We definitely need a shower enclosure (the shower is at the top of the plan, in case that is not clear). The nicest option would, of course, be one made of glass. But the thought of having to clean it already terrifies me. My experience so far: even if we squeegee every time, lime scale and grime still build up in the corners and edges, which cannot be completely removed even with cleaning and scrubbing. Although we will have softer water in the future than now, the problem won’t be completely prevented.
Therefore, I am considering using a shower curtain. Please no comments about how old-fashioned and disgusting that is. I don’t find the look bad, and I can pull the shower curtain together after use (and drying), which gives me a more open look than a glass enclosure. That doesn’t look nice either when it’s dirty. I also don’t find it disgusting because there are ways to prevent the curtain from sticking and because I can wash it.
However, I am afraid that with an (almost) floor-level shower, water might run out from under the curtain and flood the bathroom. So here is my question: Does anyone have a shower curtain combined with a walk-in shower?
