Project notes
This remodel focused on improving both comfort and layout. By expanding the shower and separating the toilet area, the space feels larger and more functional.
The custom shower pan, bench and niche were built specifically for this layout, while the double vanity and pantry cabinet added practical storage without crowding the room.
Bathroom remodeling FAQ
Can a shower be expanded by changing the layout?
Yes. With proper planning, walls can be repositioned to create a larger, more comfortable shower area.
Is a custom shower pan better than a prefab base?
A custom pan allows precise sizing, better slope control, and a cleaner look — especially for larger showers.
Does separating the toilet area make sense?
In many homes, yes. It improves privacy and allows multiple people to use the space more comfortably.
