Add showerhead to garden tub
Comments (5)It would only be possible to do correctly if you gut and rebuild your alcove with new plumbing and waterproofing. And probably go with a different tub. That tub doesn't appear to have a tiling flange. Now, you could probably gut the wall, fir it out to depth of the ledge on top of the tub, install an aftermarket flange, and then install the vapor barrier and cement board, new shower valves, and tile.....but that's a lot of effort to keep a tub that isn't that expensive to replace to begin with. After you've gone to all of the effort to demo everything, that would be the penny wise pound foolish approach....See MoreBack painted etched glass for back splashes, walls, shower walls, etc.

Comments (70)@geoffrey_b Oh dear, so I'm guessing you haven't even been to California. You really should visit, because again, I think you would find something very different from your "Fox News" reality. You really should get out more. Perhaps more than most states, California has completely different areas. There is the very liberal and vibrant Bay Area, there is the agrarian central valley and the rugged Northern part of the state- just to name a few. Your caricature is pretty inaccurate. When I listen to Jerry Brown speak, he seems really smart and seems to have a solid grasp of what the challenges are that face the state. What's more, the people of California seem to feel he's the right person for the job. Who are you to criticize their choice? I think you are really grasping at straws. Certainly the amount of debt they carry is high, but you have to put it in perspective of the 5th largest economy. They have a bond rating of AA- (seems pretty far from bankruptcy) while your state has a ratting of AA+... Room for improvement, for sure, but hardly worthy of your hateful rhetoric. I don't live in California, I have family there and I have been there multiple times. I live in a very "red" midwestern state. We have low taxes, we have crumbling roads, bad schools, and really bad public health. Young people get their education and leave because of the lack of opportunity and culture. The environment here has been trashed and we have close to a dozen EPA Superfund sites. I live in a major city in this red state and there is virtually no building inspection or code enforcement at the residential level. The result is that our insurance is high and home prices are low. Trust me when I say it's not a good situation. But we have low taxes, so the rest of the human misery is worth it. Or, at least that's what they tell me....See MoreCeiling mounted rain showerhead
Comments (12)Will this be the only shower head? Have you had a rainfall head in the ceiling before? I ask because I never experienced one until I stayed at a hotel that had only a rainfall head in the ceiling. Both my wife and I hated it. Its either pouring on your head, or not hitting you, or you're leaning out of the way to get some water (and warmth) but not drenched. If its the only head, and you've never had one before, I recommend the wall mount. Then, if you hate it, you can change it back. If you've lived with a ceiling mounted rain head and love it, disregard everything I just typed up and enjoy!! :)...See Morenumbersjunkie
