Whether you're building a new home or remodeling, adding a shower is a great way to add luxury to your bathroom. Before you embark on a shopping spree, think about what you want from your new shower, focusing on the needs of the different people who'll be using it.

There are hundreds of possibilities when it comes to showers, and you can combine the components in a variety of ways to accommodate every family member.

If you're not up for tiling the walls and floor of your shower, consider a shower stall and base to help contain splashing and give your shower a clean look.

Shower doors come in a variety of shapes, sizes, and styles. Whether you're incorporating a corner shower, working in a tight space, or using steam controls, there's a shower door for every need.
