5'x8' bathroom, remove the tub, what size shower should I choose?
Comments (7)sjhockeyfan, thank you very much for sharing your shower stall's information. So your shower base's width from wall to the step's inner edge is 28". What is your step made up of --- 2 bullnoses or tile and metal trims? Lotteryticket, thanks for your information. raehelen, appreciate your help. My contractor said with two bullnoses of 3" width, the step would be 6" wide. For 4" step, 32" wide shower stall would have a base space of 28" (32 - step width 4). But if I have 6" step, in order to have the base space of 28"(not including step width), I need to have a total width of 34" including step (28+6). So does your rectangular shower stall have a width of 28" not including the step? What are your steps made up of---2 bullnoses or tile and metal trims? Anna-in-TX, thank you very much for sharing the picture. It's a smart option.

Comments (1)I can only say that all of those are fairly large, and it's imperative that they are dead flat if you want to avoid lippage. The larger a tile is, the more likelihood of some noticeable warping. Having said that, when I remodeled my master bath, we went for 24" X 24" tiles on the bathroom floor, and 12" X 12" tiles on the shower floor and walls (with a linear drain to allow use of such large tiles on the floor). I checked samples of the tiles for flatness in the store before purchase, and checked all of the ones that were delivered before they were installed. I was fortunate that they were all totally flat. The easiest way to check for flatness is to take two tiles, place them face-to-face, and see if you can detect any gapping by looking along all the edges....See Morewhat size led mirrors should I use over a 96” bathroom vanity?
