How To Upgrade Your Showering Experience
by Liz Seyi Digital marketing managerFew things make you feel
truly “awake” in the morning like an invigorating shower. However many people’s
showering experience is probably only just good enough to get the job
done.Thankfully, it’s not overly difficult to deliver meaningful improvements
to the quality of your shower.
Our bathroom experts here at PGS Plumbers,
including Teddington, Fulham and Oxshott plumbers, can help you upgrade your shower in the
following cost-effective – and highly functional – ways.
Replace the
shower head
There are many different shower heads on the
market today, although which of them you should buy will depend on your
household’s needs and preferences. For example, would you like your new shower
head to be detachable? What controls would you like for its spray?
For a particularly soothing sensation, you could
opt for a “rainfall” shower head – so-called as it enables the water to softly
fall as though you are standing in a gentle drizzle.
Our plumbing professionals can fit a new shower
head for you after making sure it would be compatible with your specific shower
system.
Install a
shower pump
If you often switch on your shower only for the
water to come out in a weak dribble rather than a powerful spray, this is a
telltale sign that you need a shower pump.
Fitted to your shower, this small device can
increase its water pressure and thus, the rapidity with which it can shoot water.
The resulting spray can be akin to something you might have previously thought
reserved for high-end luxury hotels.
Get your
shower area retiled
It’s delightfully easy to wipe water off tiles –
and that’s naturally why they are used in showers, where water can end up going
here, there and everywhere. However, exactly because they are regularly exposed
to water, tiles can often attract build-up of mould and grime.
That’s why, if tiles in your bathroom – such as on
its walls, the floor or gutters – show signs of water-caused wear and tear,
such as cracking or discolouring, you should arrange for professionals like our
bathroom experts to retile these surfaces.
Upgrade to a
walk-in shower
Getting a walk-in shower would really be the next
step up from getting your bathroom retiled, as it would help blur the usual
markers between your shower area and the rest of the bathroom.
If you do go down this route, we would
particularly advise you to choose glass doors and walls instead of curtains.
That’s because the former would be easier to keep clean – and can help prevent
your shower area from feeling too warm or dingy when you’re in there.
Have an entire
wet room fitted
This would be an even more ambitious step, and we have touched on the
various merits of wet rooms before. With a wet room, your shower area wouldn’t even be enclosed
by the usual shower screen – and you can have the area tiled in the same way as
the rest of the room.
Our wet room installers here at PGS Plumbers,
including Wimbledon, Brixton and Oxshott plumbers, can help homeowners in
Greater London and South East England to benefit from the slick design and ease
of maintenance that come as standard with these spaces when fitted by us.
