Make the Most of Your Bathing Space with Ball Wall Accessories

Luxury Bath — Fri, 12 Jun 2026 21:47:36 GMT

A minimalist bathroom enclosure is appealing with its sleek walls and simple design. However, a little storage space and a few bathroom accessories can dramatically improve your experience while taking a bath or shower.

We all have hygiene products, like soaps, shampoos, conditioners, razors, and the like. Being able to keep them well-organized and at hand in the bathtub is essential. Letting them pile up in the corners of the tub isn't very minimalist, nor does it make finding the product you want and need any easier.

It's vital to have some bath wall accessories to keep your products organized and help maintain the look of a beautiful bath enclosure.

Top Bath Wall Accessories for Beautiful Spaces

If you are getting ready to install a new bathtub, or just replace the bathtub wall surround, here are a few ideas for practical and attractive accessories:

Soap Dishes: A classic option that's still popular these days, soap dishes are small shelves that provide space to place bar soap, or other small items.
Storage Shelves: You'll find a variety of storage shelves are available these days for holding bottles and accessories. Storage shelves in different styles, from minimal to traditional, can further your bathroom design too.
Shower Niches: These cool, modern storage options provide a recessed shelving space in the wall of your shower replacement where you can keep items. Recessed shelves are great for saving space in a small bath enclosure.
Corner Caddies: Add a lot of storage space to your bath enclosure with a tall, vertical corner caddy. These corner caddies have multiple shelves. Even better, you can install them in more than one corner of the replacement bathtub.
Shaving Stands: If you are looking for improved comfort during self-care, a simple shaving stand makes it easier to shave your legs as the stand provides a place to rest your foot while shaving.
Shower Seats: Speaking of comfort and accessibility, a built-in shower bench seat gives you a place to sit while using the shower.

Getting New Bath Accessories During a Luxury Bath Bathroom Remodel

If you are ready to update your bathroom enclosure, Luxury Bath's trained and certified bath contractors are here to help you. We offer fully customized bath wall surrounds and shower wall surrounds made with durable, multi-layer acrylic. Our wall surrounds are made to order, and come 25+ colors and 17+ tile patterns.

We also have dozens of bathroom wall accessories available in chrome finishes, or acrylic to blend seamlessly with your chosen wall surround color.

Make Your Bathroom Cozy with Warm Colors in the Bathing Area

Luxury Bath — Fri, 12 Jun 2026 21:47:35 GMT

When it comes to remodeling your bathroom, there are thousands of different directions in which you can go. Every bathroom has its own unique style, and it’s important to know everything about yours, so you can take its aesthetic to the next level.

Many people enjoy using warmer colors in their bathroom. If you’re one of them, you’ve come to the right place! We’re going to go over some of the top enhancements you can make to your shower in order to complement your warm aesthetic.

Use Warm Colors and Patterns for Your Shower

Your shower will be one of the focal points of your bathroom, so it makes sense for it to be one of the first places to focus on. Whether you’re looking for your shower to blend in seamlessly with the rest of your space, or you want it to be the focal point, we’ve got you covered with a variety of color and pattern options.

For a more simplistic look, try using colors and patterns like Taffeta, Biscuit, Almond, and Sandbar. On the other end of the spectrum, we have options like Canyon Rock, Sandalwood, Santa Cruz Granite, Sierra Sand, and White Travertine.

Have Fun with Simulated Tile Wall Patterns

When it comes to tying your bathroom’s warm look together, there’s nothing better than playing with tile wall patterns! When dealing with warmer tones, large block patterns tend to be the best choice. At Luxury Bath, we offer beautiful options like Roman Block, Cobblestone, Flagstone, and more—all of which will do wonders to bring your bathroom to life!

Pay Attention to Accents & Accessories

With the big stuff out of the way, it’s time to focus on accents. Even the things that almost seem unnoticeable—faucets, drains, door frames, grab bars—can make a huge difference once everything is tied together. For warm bathrooms, the best colors to use would be either Brushed Nickel or Oil-Rubbed Bronze.

Pay attention to every accessory in your bathroom individually and then envision it as a part of the whole. That way, you can really create a cohesive design. Here are a few bathroom accessories you should look at to help get you started:

Shower Footrests
Bench Seating
Shelving
Shower Caddies
Soap Dishes
Towel Racks

…and more!

Ways to Improve Accessibility in Your Bathroom | Luxury Bath

Luxury Bath — Fri, 12 Jun 2026 21:47:34 GMT

Are you living with limited mobility? Do you want to help a loved one age in place safely? Whatever your reasons for wanting to increase the accessibility of your bathroom, there are many ways to do so without having to remodel every square inch.

Make Small Changes

Good lighting is important in any bathroom, but it’s crucial in an accessible bathroom. Without proper lighting, it may be more difficult to navigate the space, increasing the potential for injury. Make sure you have adequate lighting in your bathroom and that your controls operate easily and are able to be used by someone in a wheelchair.

Another cost-effective update that will help you add safety to your bathroom is installing designer safety bars. Add grab bars to the area around your toilet, shower, and tub to provide additional stability and support for your existing features.

Update Your Shower

There are a few changes you can make to your shower to make it a safer, more comfortable space. A small stool or plastic seat is a great way to allow seated bathing without having to remodel any part of your shower, and you can remove the seat when necessary. For seated showering, a handheld showerhead with a hose of 60” or more is ideal for maximum flexibility.

If you’re looking for a major change, you can completely renovate your shower, making it a roll-in shower. With virtually no threshold, maneuvering a wheelchair in and out of a roll-in shower is easy.

Install a Walk-In Tub

Prefer bathing to showering? One of the most elegant options to increase the accessibility in your bathroom is to install a high-quality walk-in tub. With no-slip flooring, comfortable seating, and easy-open doors, a walk-in tub fosters bathing independence without sacrificing style or safety.

If you’re looking for ways to increase the accessibility of your bathroom, the professionals at Luxury Bath can help! Unlike other bathroom remodeling companies, we put your safety and satisfaction first. We’d love to help you create a safer space, so give us a call today to find our more about our bathroom accessibility products and how they can improve your home.

Bathroom Makeovers on a Budget | Luxury Bath

Luxury Bath — Fri, 12 Jun 2026 21:47:33 GMT

One of the best rooms in the home to concentrate on when remodeling your home on a budget is the bathroom. Contrary to other rooms in the house, like the kitchen or the garage, remodeling a bathroom doesn’t have to cost a fortune. Even small, minor upgrades can make a huge difference in the bathroom, especially if your current construction is outdated or falling apart due to heavy, daily use and old age.

At Luxury Bath, we’re dedicated to bringing the best and most affordable remodeling solutions to our customers that want to improve their homes. Take a look at some of our favorite bathroom makeovers that are both effective and budget-friendly, and start planning your next bathroom remodeling project this year.

Focus on Fixtures and Accessories

When it comes to bathroom remodeling, upgrading the fixtures like the faucets and door handles, drawer pulleys, and toilet parts can make a huge difference at a very low cost. While you might not normally notice these fixtures when using your bathroom, replacing old and worn-out features with new, gleaming ones can bring added beauty and value to your entire space.

This also goes for accessories in your bathroom, like soap dishes, trash bins, toothbrush holders, and other items in view. Take a look around and throw away any of these that are rusted, water-damaged, or stained, and then take a trip to your favorite discount store for new and modern replacements.

Look at the Walls

The walls of your bathroom, whether they’re made of tile, stucco, stone, or another material, take a beating on a daily basis. Humidity, water droplets, soap scum, and grime are the perfect breeding grounds for mold and mildew, and over time, this can turn any bathroom into a moldy, dingy-looking space.

The great news is that renovating the bathroom walls is easy and affordable. In fact, wall surrounds for the bathtub or shower surrounds can be custom-fit to snap into place over the existing wall area, protecting it from dirt and build-up. Look into replacing problem areas with high-quality acrylic materials that require very little maintenance. Covering up wall eyesores is one of our favorite options for an impactful and very cost-effective remodel.

Mirror, Mirror, on the Wall…

In many bathrooms, the focal point of the area is the mirror that hangs on the wall over the sink. If your mirror is small, cloudy, scratched, or inferior in some way, replacing it with a better one can make a world of difference in the way the entire room looks.

One of the most modern mirror options involves upgrading from a rounded or oval-shaped mirror to a square or rectangle one. Whichever shape you choose, make sure that the mirror replacement is as large as possible. Larger mirrors help to make the bathroom appear bigger than it actually is, and is also more pleasing to use.

Upgrade Your Outdated Color Schemes

Your shamrock green and burgundy-colored bathroom may have looked great in the 70s, but it’s probably past its prime, looking outdated today. Upgrading with a brighter, more modern color scheme can make a huge difference without the cost of a full bathroom renovation.

However, unless you’re artistic with a good eye for home décor, choosing the paint and the color scheme for your bathroom isn’t as easy as it sounds. If you need help deciding on a color scheme, consult with a design specialist at a home remodeling company like Luxury Bath. An expert can provide you with plenty of ideas on the best tones for your particular bathroom space, and how to implement them into your remodeling plans effectively.

Shower Seating Types. Which is Right for You?

Luxury Bath — Fri, 12 Jun 2026 21:47:32 GMT

As you remodel your shower, you’ll discover that there are many options available to you. One option is shower seating. If you want to have a seat in your shower, then you’ll want to select one that fits your needs best. Let’s get into the types of shower seats available, and whether they are the best fit for your replacement shower.

Built-In Shower Seats

If you want a shower seat that’s built into the shower itself, then this might be the option that you want. These seats typically have the same color scheme and pattern as the shower wall or base to create a seamless, low-profile appearance. Some built-in shower seats are made in the corner of the shower, while others are constructed as a shower bench. With both of these options, the seat is mounted into wall studs for optimum strength and stability.

Fold-Down Shower Seats

Do you want a shower seat that can be stored out of the way rather than fixed in its place? If so, then a fold-down shower seat is a great option. As the name suggests, these seats can be folded up to make more room in your shower when the seat is not needed. These seats are also easy to lift and lower. If installed correctly, they can also hold a considerable amount of weight.

Transfer Shower Seats

Transfer shower seats straddle the tub rail for safe transition into the bath or into the shower space. These safety seats can also be taken completely out of the bath or shower, which can be an advantage if other family members need to use the same bath. This is a cost-effective solution for those with mobility issues. The portability is useful when working with on-sight caregivers as well.

Do you want more information about the various shower seat options? Contact Luxury Bath Technologies today. We will be glad to provide you with a professional design consultation and free, in-home project cost estimate, so you can customize your new shower to your liking and budget accordingly. Give us a call.

Designing a Modern Bathing Area | Luxury Bath

Luxury Bath — Fri, 12 Jun 2026 21:47:31 GMT

What You Should Know About Walk-In Tubs | Luxury Bath

Luxury Bath — Fri, 12 Jun 2026 21:47:31 GMT

The bathroom is one of the most used rooms in the house, a place where we spend a considerable amount of time showering, bathing, relaxing, and freshening up. As grateful as we all are for the usefulness and practicality of our bathroom spaces, it’s important to be cautious when we’re using the bathroom. After all, the bathroom can be a very dangerous place, as slippery floors and soapy surfaces are often the cause for serious injuries and even fatal accidents in the home.

For many household members who are aging, suffering from physical injuries, handicapped, or otherwise physically impaired, using the bathtub or bathing independently is risky. Limited mobility means difficulty climbing in and out of the high-walled bathtub which can lead to falls.

If you or someone in your household is unable to bathe on their own or has given up using the bathtub altogether, it’s worth it to consider installing a walk-in tub. Take a look at some of the benefits of walk-in tub installation from your expert team of contractors at Luxury Bath, and find out whether this safer alternative to the traditional bathtub is worth it for your home.

Popular Accessibility and Safety Features of Walk-In Tubs

A walk-in tub differs from a regular tub in many ways, the most important one being the low-threshold, watertight door entrance. Traditional tubs have high walls that need to be climbed over when getting in and out, which can be very dangerous for those living with limited mobility.

Because walk-in tubs can be customized, homeowners can essentially design the tub based on their own safety needs and requirements. Some of the most popular accessibility features include special configurations for wheelchair transfers (slide-through tubs), strategically placed handrails and grab bars, easy-to-reach controls according to specific heights, slip-resistant surfaces, extra-wide entry doors, and more.

Style Choices for Walk-In Tubs

Just as the customization options for safety can vary, homeowners have plenty of choices when it comes to designing the style of a new walk-in tub. To start, the actual layout can be chosen from various models, and also the color of the materials, control options, seat choices, and other features can also be customized.

Hydrotherapy Benefits of Walk-In Tubs

Elderly homeowners and those living with physical impairments often suffer from tired muscles, arthritis, and other ills. It’s not hard to see why a long, hot soak in a bathtub can be a great way to relieve stress and muscle tension, but for those that can’t climb in and out of a tub, this kind of relief isn’t easy. That’s why walk-in tubs are such a great choice for so many people living with limited mobility. Walk-in tubs offer excellent therapeutic relief, with hydrotherapy options like whirlpool jets, colored lights for ambiance, more features meant to enhance the wellness experience.

Are Walk-In Tubs Affordable?

Walk-in tubs have been around for a while now, which means that today’s installations have improved dramatically in function, design, and beauty. This also means that the prices for walk-in tubs are much more affordable today than they were in the past, and homeowners can easily enjoy a walk-in tub conversion or brand-new installation without spending a fortune.The price of your walk-in tub will depend on various factors, including the features and brands you choose for your home. It will also depend on the company you choose to install the product, as well as your geographic location and other personal considerations. In general, the price of a walk-in tub will likely fall between $1,500-5,000 but can skyrocket to $20,000 or more for the most luxury brands and premium customization options.

Walk-in Tub Installation from Luxury Bath

At Luxury Bath, we’re committed to making home remodeling an affordable reality for our customers. With attractive prices on exceptional products and fast, one-day installation options, we do everything we can to take the stress out of home remodeling—to help you enjoy the bathroom of your dreams without worry.

Designing a Tuscan Style Bathing Area

Luxury Bath — Fri, 12 Jun 2026 21:47:30 GMT

Are you tired of trendy, minimalist bathroom styles that can feel cold and unwelcoming? Do you wish your bathroom was more indulgent and comfortable? If so, creating a Tuscan-style bathing area inside your home could be an excellent option for your family.

The Tuscan look blends a luxurious combination of rustic materials, textured surfaces, and natural tones to create a welcoming feel anyone would love.

Instead of feeling like you’re stepping into a sterile environment, this type of aesthetic is reminiscent of the Tuscan vacation you might be longing for.

If you’d like to design the perfect Tuscan-style bathing area in your home, Luxury Bath has some ideal options to help you along.

What Types of Colors, Materials, and Patterns Should You Be Searching For?

In a Tuscan-style bathroom, the overwhelming objective is to bring the outdoors in. By utilizing subtle Mediterranean blues and luxurious tans and terracotta’s, you’ll be creating a space that feels like it was created in nature. Some of the most popular color options at Luxury Bath include almond, biscuit, and sandbar.

Almond

Biscuit

Sandbar

Finding the right pattern is also a significant priority. Again, you’ll want to choose products that don’t feel so human-made. Some of our favorite Tuscan patterns are Canyon Rock, Sandalwood, Sierra Sand, White Slate and White Travertine

Canyon
Rock

Sandalwood

White
Travertine

It’s not just colors and patterns that are beneficial in creating your perfect Tuscan-style bathing area, however. The type of textures matter, too.

When choosing tiles for your shower or bath surrounds, why not consider a textured surface, such as our piazza tiles? You’ll feel like your new tiles were pulled straight from the buildings in Tuscany!

All of our gorgeous bathtub and shower products can be fully-customized in any of the colors, styles, and patterns mentioned above.

Adding Additional Tuscan Elements to Your Bathroom

Are you looking for more simple ways of bringing the Tuscan countryside into your American bathroom? Why not choose additional accessories, such as faucets, drains, and grab bars that are made with a wrought iron look in mind?

Bronze and matte black accessories are also popular options for anyone who’s dreaming of their own Tuscan bathroom oasis.

Other simple changes, like purchasing new towels, cabinet handles, or paint, can also help enhance your space's overall design.
