If You Have a Standard Tub, You Have Room for a Walk-in Open Shower.
That's right....if you have a standard tub you can replace it with a walk-in open shower just as we did in this bathroom. The original cabinets were used but the counter tops were updated with beautiful granite.

I recommend making the opening 22-24" and the shower wall 36-38" if you are working with a 60" (5 foot) opening. You still my get a little splashing, but if you go with a tiled base board, problem solved. Jana

I was at a friend's place that had the curtainless shower. I actually got cold from the draft because of the lack of the curtain. When I remodeled 15 years ago, I had a fiberglass cheap tub removed and a walk in shower put in. It has a small - 4 inch - edge to keep from flooding the rest of the house, a bench, a handheld shower head and I have a curtain that keeps the warmth and water in the shower, I have never been happier with what I did.

Have a question about this project?
How did you create the slant for the drain? I haven't done something this big before so any help would be appreciated!
