Walk-In Showers FAQ
What is a curbless walk-in shower?+
A curbless shower has no lip or step at the entry — the bathroom floor flows seamlessly into the shower area. A linear drain along the back wall handles water. It's ideal for aging in place and creates a modern, spacious look in Windsor-Essex bathrooms.
How do you waterproof a walk-in shower?+
We use the Schluter-Kerdi membrane system, which creates a fully waterproof envelope behind the tile. The membrane is bonded to a pre-sloped pan and runs up the walls. This system is far more reliable than traditional pan-and-liner methods and carries a manufacturer warranty.
How long does a walk-in shower build take?+
A standard walk-in shower takes 5-7 days from demolition to final glass install. Curbless and luxury showers with rain heads and body jets take 10-14 days. Waterproofing membrane dry time between coats adds a day or two, which we build into the schedule.
