Thinking about removing your shower hob for that sleek walk-in look?
We get it… it looks amazing.
But here’s what most people don’t realise — water still needs somewhere to go.
If we take away the hob, we have to create the fall in the floor so water runs straight to the drain… not out into your bathroom.
And to make that work properly, you’ll often see a small step up at the doorway threshold.
Why? Because we’re lowering the shower area to get the correct fall — and that step helps contain the water where it should be.
No step, no fall… and that’s when you get puddling, leaks, and long-term issues.
Done right, once. No band-aid fixes
