Bath screens for versatile bathrooms

A bath screen is a practical and attractive way to make the most of your bathroom.

Don’t have the space for a bath and separate shower? Like most people, you’ll probably opt for an over-the-bath shower and you’ll need to find a way of preventing the spray from the shower covering your bathroom in water droplets. Traditionally, of course, we’re used to seeing shower curtains for this purpose – but an increasing number of people are using bath screens.

The growth in bath screens

Bath screens really give you the best of both worlds – the contemporary look of a shower cubicle with the practicalities of a shower curtain. In fact, bath screens are more practical than shower curtains – easier to clean and maintain and nicer to use. Today, bath screens come in many shapes, sizes and styles, giving you greater flexibility when it comes to choosing the perfect screen for your bathroom.

Bath screens – curved or straight?

Of course baths, too, have changed over the years in terms of style and design. Taking into account the changing tastes of the public as well as the homes and apartments we’re buying, bathroom manufacturers have endeavoured to provide us with as much choice as possible. That’s why you can choose a bath which is curved at one end to provide extra space for showering. A curved bath screen can either be permanently fixed to the curved edge of the bath, or be moveable so that it can fold inwards towards the shower when not in use.

Many people still prefer the traditional straight-sided bath and look for straight bath screens to protect the rest of the room from spray. Again, straight screens can be fixed to the bath, or you can buy folding screens that concertina against the wall when not in use and fold out when needed. These have the advantage of storing out of the way when unused, so that your bathroom retains its clean lines.

It is also possible, with both straight and curved screens, to fix a matching screen on the wall-side of the bath so that you can completely enclose yourself to have a shower if you wish.
