FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
It’s a shower with a much shorter step-over height than a traditional tub, usually only a couple of inches. That smaller step makes it easier and safer to get in and out, especially for older adults, kids, and anyone with balance or mobility concerns. The base is designed to drain efficiently with a slight slope rather than a high lip.
Most installations from Bath Planet of Bowling Green are finished in one day, with more involved projects sometimes running two days. Our crews protect your floors, remove the old tub or shower, and install the new walls, base, and fixtures the same day. You can typically use the rest of your home normally during the work.
In most cases, yes. We customize each unit to fit your existing space, so there’s usually no need to move plumbing or expand walls. During your free in-home consultation, we measure the bathroom and review your layout to confirm what’s possible.
For many homeowners, yes. The lower step-in, slip-resistant base, and option to add grab bars and a built-in bench make it a strong choice for staying in your home longer. It’s not the same as a fully barrier-free roll-in shower, so if you use a wheelchair full-time, we’d suggest looking at a zero-threshold option instead.
Our walls and bases are made from high-grade acrylic by BCI Acrylic, our American parent company. Unlike tile, there’s no real grout to clean, no caulk lines to maintain, and no porous surface for mold or mildew to settle into. The walls resist chipping, cracking, and fading, and they come with a limited lifetime warranty.
