The bathroom is that part of your home that endures a lot — dirt, soap, water, and more. Who would want to spend hours cleaning a dirty bathroom every week? It can be tiring. Trust us; a shower replacement is the best way to address the cleaning problem.
You’ll want to consider a shower surface that’s water-resistant and can be cleaned in a jiffy. If you’re looking for material that’ll be low on maintenance and super-easy to clean, acrylic shower walls are your go-to solution.
Why are Acrylic Walls an Easy-to-Clean, Low-Maintenance Shower Option?
Acrylic showers are nonporous, so they won’t absorb soap, water, bath salts, or any other material. It also means that water and other liquids won’t stay on the surface. They’ll just flow down the drain, leaving you with a cleaner bathroom that isn’t favorable for the growth of mold and mildew. As a result, you needn’t spend hours over the weekend scrubbing away stains and microbial growth. Simply wipe the walls with a moist cloth, and you’re good to go!
Understanding Acrylic Material
Acrylic is a type of plastic, but don’t let the term ‘plastic’ deter you. This material is known for its strength and durability. Acrylic is a thermoplastic, which means it can be heated to become pliable and then cooled into a new shape. This quality allows for a variety of designs and forms, making acrylic showers suitable for almost any bathroom layout.
Tips to Choose the Right Acrylic Shower
Since your key objective is a cleaning-friendly shower replacement, we recommend these tips while you look for the perfect fit for your bathroom.
- Look for Quality: Not all acrylic showers are created equal. Higher quality acrylic is thicker, more durable, and more resistant to wear and tear.
- Anti-Microbial Protection: Acrylic showers with anti-microbial protection, with embedded silver ions, can further prevent mold and bacteria growth.
- Customization Options: Be sure to check for customization options so that the shower not only matches the look you want but is also well-fitted to your bathroom’s dimensions, leaving no scope for water leaks.
- Professional Installation: A do-it-yourself acrylic shower remodeling project may sound tempting. However, to ensure it’s installed right, quick, and without damage, we suggest taking professional help. At Bath Experts, we can complete the remodel in as little as one day.
Maintenance Tips for Acrylic Showers
Maintaining your acrylic shower is straightforward, but there are some best practices to keep it looking pristine:
- Regular Cleaning: Use a soft cloth and a mild detergent. Avoid abrasive cleaners, as they can scratch the surface.
- Immediate Stain Removal: If you notice any stains, address them immediately to prevent them from setting in.
- Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Harsh chemicals can damage the acrylic surface. Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaning solutions.
Soft Cleaning Tools: Use sponges or soft cloths for cleaning to avoid scratching the surface.
