Although having a bathtub and shower combo is nice, what isn’t so nice are the dingy curtains you’re replacing all the time. Scroll through the images to see stylish and sturdy alternatives to curtains. Consider bypass (2 moving doors), sliding or pivoting doors for a full glass enclosure. Or use a walk-in tub screen to add improve the looks and function of your tub shower combo.
The right accessories will make or break your tub experience.
What type of shelving or niches do you need to store your lotions and potions? Where should you put the grab bars for a safe bathtub shower combo? What choices do you have which won’t make your new tub look like a hospital room?
The bath replacement specialists at The Bath Doctor can answer these questions for you.
A window smack dab in the middle of your tub shower combo is nice for the light it lets in, but terrible for the privacy it takes away.
Choosing a window inside your tub surround which offers privacy yet doesn’t cut off light is a must. Bath Doctor offers a range of high privacy vinyl replacement windows or glass block windows to give you light, privacy, and style whether you live in Glenwillow or Gates Mills.
Yes – there are 2 options you’ll want to see. Use a tub with thinner ‘sidewalls’ or a tub insert which ‘curve out’ in the center for more elbow room.
The two most important features for a safe tub are lower step in heights (14” high for a tub shower combo and 19” for a deeper spa-type tub are best) and having a textured bottom.
Mold is the enemy of a healthy bathroom and bathtub. The best way to get rid of mold and mildew is using decorative grout free wall surrounds, exhaust fans and operable windows for healthy (and mold free) tub shower combo.
Cover-over tub liners have their challenges. While they can make a tub replacement installation more time effective, there can be problems with water which gets lodged between the new liner and the old tub. In addition, you can’t use a tub liner if your existing tub is made of fiberglass or acrylic.
Although finding the right tub which fits your space, décor and safety profile are critical, it’s also important to look ‘beyond the tub’ when choosing a tub.
Consider if your water heater is large enough to fill the bathtub without running out of hot water.
Ask the Bath Doctor representative if your subfloor is strong enough to support the weight of the tub plus the weight of the water in the tub.
Yes – depending on the size of tub you need you’ll find not only white, but also biscuit, dune, ice gray, thunder gray and black tubs. Regarding patterns you’ll see contemporary and transitional craftsman tubs in the Bath Doctor offerings.

It’s our job to guide you through options – whether it’s one on one during an bathroom design consultation, in a virtual appointment or with shower design articles through our News From The Block Blog or educational YouTube videos.
If you’re frustrated with your existing tile and fiberglass wall surrounds, you’re not alone. The best way to get a stylish bathtub shower combo – without sacrificing looks, is to use laminate, PVC, cultured stone, or high gloss bathtub wall panels. They’re durable and will accent your décor.
If you’re looking for the lowest cost way to keep water inside your tub/shower – then curtains will be your answer. On the other hand, if you want a more stylish tub and shower combo which also let’s in more light, glass doors are your answer.
The location of your shower head, valve, toilet, and vanity will drive what type of glass door (from bypass, sliding or pivoting designs) is best.
