How to Choose the Right Size Shower for Your Bathroom Remodel

A bathroom remodel is a great way to upgrade your home and create a more functional and beautiful space. One key element of any bathroom remodel is the shower, which can be customized to fit your unique needs and preferences. But with so many options available, how do you choose the right size shower for your bathroom remodel?

In this article, we'll explore some factors to consider when selecting the right shower size for your bathroom.


  • Available Space

The first factor to consider when choosing the right size shower for your bathroom is the available space. You'll need to measure the area where the shower will be located to determine how much space you have to work with. This will help you determine the maximum size of the shower that can fit in the space.

  • Personal Preferences

Your personal preferences will also play a role in the size of the shower you choose. For example, if you prefer a spacious shower, you may want to opt for a larger size. On the other hand, if you prefer a more compact shower that takes up less space, you may choose a smaller size.

  • Number of Users

Consider how many people will be using the shower. If it will primarily be used by one person, a smaller shower may be sufficient. However, if multiple people will be using the shower, a larger size may be necessary to accommodate everyone comfortably.

  • Accessibility Needs

If you or someone in your household has accessibility needs, such as the need for a wheelchair-accessible shower, you'll need to choose a larger size shower to accommodate these needs. Additionally, if you plan to age in place, a larger shower may be more accommodating as you get older and mobility becomes more challenging.

  • Style Preferences

The style of your bathroom may also impact the size of the shower you choose. If you have a modern or minimalist bathroom, a smaller shower may fit better with the overall aesthetic. Conversely, if you have a more traditional or luxurious bathroom, a larger shower may be more appropriate.


Ultimately, the right size shower for your bathroom remodel will depend on a variety of factors, including available space, personal preferences, the number of users, accessibility needs, and style preferences. By taking these factors into account and working with a skilled contractor or designer, you can create the perfect shower for your unique needs and preferences.
