Turning a daily shower into a home steam retreat?

[Judii 0]

Lockdown left my local spa off-limits, and one morning I noticed mold creeping beneath the shower grout. I knew a quick scrub wouldn’t suffice—my tiny bathroom begged for a full overhaul. Has anyone here transformed a simple wet room into a steam-shower oasis without juggling multiple trades?

During lockdown I noticed mold creeping under the grout behind my shower tiles. Since spas were closed, creating a steam-style sanctuary felt essential. After vetting teams for frameless enclosures, ambient lighting, heated towel rails and tile niches, I booked a bathroom renovation that delivered a sleek steam-shower setup. The crew applied moisture-resistant plaster, rerouted plumbing for a steam head, installed slate-effect porcelain tiles and recessed LEDs behind frosted glass. They even adapted my mid-project request to swap in a rainfall shower-head. Daily photo updates kept me in the loop without stress. Five days later, my cramped bath felt like a personal spa every morning starts with that signature steam hush.

Make sure the room is fully waterproofed and ventilated. Using one contractor for demo, tiling, and steam-shower setup can keep things simple, and mold-resistant grout helps prevent future issues.
