Shower curtains are floppy, flimsy and simply less-effective solutions for enclosing a bathing space. That's why many homeowners in Summerville choose to take advantage of the benefits that come from replacing those curtains with a sparkling shower door.
In addition to the beautiful aesthetic that shower doors add to bathrooms in Summerville, there are many benefits of glass doors that you may be surprised to learn about—or may not have considered. Even if you're happy with your current curtain, you could be even happier with many of those benefits added to your bathroom.
Long Lasting
Over time, all curtains and liners will eventually degrade to the point that they're no longer effective—or pleasant—to use. Issues like tearing, excessive wear and mildew buildup all decrease the overall satisfaction of using a curtain—and the overall lifespan of that essential barrier—forcing you to replace them repeatedly.
With regular cleaning and just a little routine maintenance, your shower door will last much longer than any curtain or liner ever could, leaving you happy, safe and satisfied for many years. It's possible for many shower doors in Summerville to last up to twenty or thirty years before they start showing signs that they need to be replaced.
Open Bathroom Space
Cramped space is a common problem for bathrooms in Summerville—and many other parts of South Carolina. Bathrooms are just generally smaller spaces, so making any change to open up that space will result in dramatic improvements for its overall look and feel.
By replacing an opaque curtain with a clear barrier, you bring your entire bathroom into view. That increased visibility will make the room seem bigger than it used to be, simply because it opens up the interior parts of your bathing space to the rest of the room.
Even a slightly opaque glass texture will have the effect of creating more space, simply because it lets the eye see that there is more space to the room than what runs up to the edge of that barrier. That simple change will have big subconscious benefits for anyone using the room.
More Lighting
Inadequate lighting can be a problem for many small rooms in Summerville, but adding a glass shower door to your bathroom will help light spread throughout the room from all sources. That means that any light fixtures beyond that barrier will be able to add visibility inside your bathing space, so that you can always see exactly what you're doing.
If you have a textured window in your shower wall, replacing an opaque curtain with a transparent or translucent barrier will help that natural light reach the rest of your room, ensuring that you always get the full benefits of every light source in your bathroom.
