Walk-in showers are one of our most requested projects in Mount Juliet, and it's easy to see why. They're simpler to step into, easier to clean and make a bathroom feel noticeably bigger. They're also a smart choice if you plan to stay in your home for years.
Choosing your entry
Low-curb showers have a short lip to contain water and work in nearly any bathroom. Curbless showers have no step at all. They need careful floor sloping, but they're the safest and most open option.
Features to consider
- A built-in bench or fold-down seat
- One or more recessed niches for storage
- A handheld shower on a slide bar
- A rain head for a more relaxing shower
- Frameless glass to keep the room bright
- Grab bars that double as towel bars
Built to stay watertight
A walk-in shower is only as good as its waterproofing. We install a continuous waterproof membrane behind the tile and slope the floor so water heads straight to the drain.
A shower that works now and later
Many Mount Juliet homeowners, including residents of active adult communities like Del Webb Lake Providence, ask for walk-in showers that look great today and will still be easy to use years from now. The key features are simple: a low or no curb, a bench or seat, a handheld shower on a slide bar and blocking in the walls so grab bars can be added anytime. These details add little to the cost of a new shower but make a big difference over the long term.
Walk-In Showers: common questions
How much space does a walk-in shower need?
A walk-in shower can often fit in the space of a standard tub. Larger bathrooms allow for wider showers and open entries.
Can I add a bench to a smaller shower?
A corner bench or fold-down seat works well in smaller showers. We'll show you options that fit.
Can you add a handheld shower alongside a rain head?
Yes. A diverter valve lets you switch between them, or run both at once.
