The Perfect Shower Niche
Have you ever wondered what size niche to build to fit all of your shampoo and soap bottles? We did the homework for you, continue reading to find out.
The tub spout in a bathroom with a built in tub or shower/tub combo should be around 5" above the top of the tub if it is wall mounted. The control valve should be 18" above the top of the tub. If you have family members of different heights, or children that will grow with the shower, consider having your shower head mounted on a bar. That way the shower head can be lowered when they are young and raised as they grow taller. This provides plenty of flexibility for all family members and guests.
