When it comes to choosing the best option to protect the floor from water when showering, many people prefer bath glass shower screens as opposed to shower rails and curtains. With that in mind, in this short article, we are going to talk about some of the disadvantages of shower curtains and the benefits and beauty of opting for a glass shower screen.

To begin with, one of the main problems with shower curtains is that they collect mold and mildew. What’s more, they rarely form a perfect seal, so water almost always gets on the floor. If you buy curtains made out of cheap material without a weighted hem, they have the added annoyance of clinging to your body when you are trying to get washed. In addition, some shower curtains take a long time to dry and can increase humidity levels since extractor fans often automatically switch off when nobody is in the bathroom.

A clear glass shower screen can look very sleek and modern, but many people opt for frosted glass options for a little bit more privacy. Glass screens are very easy to clean and do not promote mold growth. You can also opt for lots of different patterned and colored glass options. Those on a budget often buy plain screen models and apply their own cheap bathroom screen stickers for decoration.

When it comes to installing an over bath shower screen, it’s very important to make sure that you use a high-quality sealant. You also need to make sure the rubber seal on the bottom of the screen is high quality. Otherwise, you could even up with lots of water on your bathroom floor after a shower. One of the great benefits of shower screens is that they drip dry very quickly and they can be quickly wiped with a towel after showering.

You can choose between folding shower screens and single pane models. The folding screens are a good option for those who have a small bathroom and like to use their bath quite a lot, as they can be folded back to the wall out of the way when not in use. A single pane glass screen makes it more difficult to access the bath taps when not in the tub. However, as there are no joins in the one-sheet glass screens, they are easier to clean and less likely to collect limescale and scum.

Some of the better bath screens have towel rails. In addition, if you don’t think a single panel shower screen will be enough to protect water escaping during your shower, you might want to check out some of the over bath shower screen enclosures. These enclosures have beautiful glass sliding doors and an end panel. When they are installed properly, no water can escape onto the floor during your shower.

When it comes to your next glass shower screen, trust the professionals at Cypress Glass to help you find the perfect glass shower screen for your home.
