Technical tips for your shower

When renovating your bathroom, replacing a bathtub with a walk-in shower is a frequent request. To succeed with this transformation, it is imperative to check the available drain slope in your floor. Insufficient slope can lead to problematic water stagnation.

It is advisable to consult a qualified installer to validate the technical feasibility from the start. By carefully planning this step, you will avoid costly corrective work and ensure a durable installation.

RenoIndex allows you to accurately estimate the cost of such technical adjustments for your project.

Managing water quality

Water quality can vary locally and affect the maintenance of your equipment. Hard water tends to quickly scale fittings and shower walls. To limit this impact, prioritize the choice of materials and surfaces that are easy to maintain during your selection.

Treated coatings or anti-limescale glass partitions can simplify your daily life significantly. It is wise to discuss these options with your contractor to optimize the longevity of your installations.

Do not forget to use the RenoIndex simulator to budget for these material choices in your overall project.

Worksite organization and schedule

Renovating a bathroom requires efficient coordination of different trades, such as plumbers, electricians, and tilers. As a general rule, you should expect a period of 2 to 4 weeks during which your bathroom will not be usable.

It is important to anticipate this period and plan for alternative solutions if necessary. Clear communication with your renovation team will help to adhere to these deadlines.
