Barrier Free Shower: Low Threshold
Low-threshold showers are a great upgrade for those who have mobility issues. Low-threshold showers only have just a small lip to step over. Compared to a traditional bathtub, the lip is minuscule. This allows those who do have mobility issues just a simple step, for easy access in and out of the shower.
In addition to being mobility friendly, low-threshold showers just simply look good. A low-threshold shower will provide your bathroom with a sleek contemporary look. Additionally, a low-threshold shower will make your bathroom feel more open. The array of design options allow you to truly customize your shower. From granite to quartz, to marble tile options are nearly endless. There are also different varieties of porcelain tiles that sit at a lower price point compared to natural stone tiles. Either way, they both provide an updated, clean, and modern look to your bathroom.
Low-threshold showers also provide convenience when it concerns cleaning. Without the different curves, corners, and crevices that come with a traditional tub, a low-threshold shower has less surface space to clean. The surrounds have no grout, which also contributes to an easier clean. Low-threshold showers truly only require an occasional wipe down with a mild cleanser.

- Folding or fixed shower seats
- Soap dishes and shelves at usable heights and locations
- Safety grab bars positioned for easy transitions
- Shower heads

Our Reviews
We recently had a new shower installed in our master bathroom. Rainbow offered great pricing and service. The one day installation went flawlessly and with perfection. Installer Chris Carter and his partner Chris were very professional, courteous, and meticulous. They kept us informed every step of the process and diligent in keeping things clean and organized. We highly recommend Rainbow Bath and Chris Carter to do your bathroom.
Converting my bathtub into a walk-in shower was a wonderful experience. Jeff explained my options and explained the process. Tyler ordered the materials and scheduled the installation. Chris did the installation making sure the result is beautiful and long lasting. They were all very professional and respectful of me and my home. They hauled away the old tub and cleaned up after themselves. I am thrilled with the results and I would highly recommend Rainbow Bath and Shower.
I highly recommend Rainbow for any new showers. They replaced an old purple tub/shower combo that was well past its expiration date and installed a new walk-in shower. From our original consultation through installation day, Rainbow answered every single question and was so thorough. They were timely, friendly and so clean! I would 100% recommend and use them again.
Had my old fiberglass tub/shower replaced with one from Rainbow and am very happy with the results. Looks and feels great. Everything seems to be of very high quality. Installation only took about seven hours. Chris showed up exactly on time, was friendly, and did a great job. Zero complaints!
Outstanding customer service. The installer Chris, was very professional & it was obvious, he knew what he was doing. We love our new walk-in shower! Good bye to the nasty jacuzzi tub & tile that was 20 years old.
Our experience with Rainbow Bath and Shower was easy and affordable. They saved Us $1000.00 and was Very Professional. Our installer Chris Carter was exceptional in his knowledge and experience. I would Highly recommend this company as they have been a Joy to work with from start to finish. Chris was there maybe 6.5 hours and removed the garden tub and then installed our new Handiecap Walkin Shower. Rainbow shower is probably the only Professional fabricator installer in Northern Michigan. Thx again Chris and team!
What a great job! Chris has been an installer with Rainbow Bath & Shower for over 20 years and is definitely a pro at this. I was amazed at the job he did and would highly recommend Rainbow for your bathroom update.
