What's the Best One-Piece Shower Stall?

Choosing a shower stall is a crucial part of the bathroom design process, so it’s worth taking time to select the best one-piece shower stall for the job. But with variations upon variations of shower stalls to choose from, finding the right one can be an exhausting task.

EverFab may not be able to tell you what the perfect one-piece shower stall is, but we can help you narrow down your search so you can find the best one-piece shower stall in record time. Here are the design features you should keep an eye out for when comparing the different types of shower stalls out there.

Top-Notch Durability

The best one-piece shower stall needs to last for a long time. Far too often, though, one-piece shower stalls are built with too much calcium sulfate, leading to heavier units prone to cracks and chips. These may seem like small damages, but bathroom architects know how critical it is to avoid these, as it can seriously compromise the unit’s structural integrity.

That’s why EverFab constructs its one-piece shower stalls with more glass, less calcium sulfate, and with four layers of reinforcing material. And thanks to the composite core material used in our products, we’re able to entirely bypass the use of wood or cardboard and make durability and longevity the standard for every one-piece shower stall we construct. 

Easy Installation

Shower installation shouldn’t be an exhaustive hassle. As you continue your search for the best one-piece shower stall, don’t forget to look into how easy each unit can be transported and installed.

After all, the easier the installation process is, the faster the bathroom remodel or construction takes. And the sooner a bathroom project is finished, the happier the client will be. Installing a heavy shower stall is doable, of course, but why would you add difficulty to your project when a lightweight (but no less durable) one-piece shower can be installed with ease and efficiency?

Built-In Accessibility

Depending on the context of your development project, your bathroom design needs to comply with various accessibility standards. Whether it’s Washington Administrative Code (WAC), California Title 24 requirements, or ADA’s standards for shower stalls, you need to know without a shadow of a doubt that the one-piece shower you’re working with is fully compliant with whatever codes it needs to be.

The best one-piece shower stall will have the built-in support necessary to support the later installation of accessibility features like grab bars and seats. Or, even better, to have those features already installed. Having accessibility built into the model is the easiest way to ensure your bathroom design is compliant with the right standards while also futureproofing it for any adjustments that may need to be made.

Options for Customization

Customization may not be an entirely necessary feature, but it’s certainly a nice one. Suppose you’re working with a very particular client whose stylistic sensibilities make it difficult to find a shower model. Instead of struggling to find something that fits into a specialized layout, a shower manufacturer like EverFab can work with you to customize a unit that works with the standards the project demands.

EverFab is one of the industry’s leading manufacturers of accessible, durable, and handcrafted one-piece fiberglass showers. No matter what kind of criteria you’re working with or what accessibility standards you need to abide by, we will work with you to find the best one-piece shower stall.
