Curbless & Walk-In Shower Installation
One Floor, No Threshold. Serving Marietta and Greater Atlanta.
A curbless shower has no step: the bathroom floor continues straight into the shower. It looks open, it is easier to use at any age, and it lets one tile run uninterrupted across the room. It also only works when the floor is built to carry water to the drain and the whole wet area is waterproofed.
We design curbless and walk-in showers with the slope, drain and waterproofing planned together before any tile is set, so the floor stays comfortable to walk on and the water goes where it should.
What's Included
- Linear and point drain layouts
- Shower floors sloped to tie into the bathroom floor
- Schluter waterproofing across the full wet zone
- Large format porcelain, marble or natural stone finishes
- Built-in benches and recessed niches
What a curbless shower needs
Without a curb, the shower floor has to sit lower than the bathroom floor, or the slope has to begin further out into the room. Depending on how the floor is framed, that can mean recessing the subfloor or using a sloped tray system. We look at the structure first and explain which option fits your bathroom before we quote.
Because there is no curb to hold water back, the waterproofing usually extends beyond the shower itself. A linear drain along one wall lets the floor slope in a single direction, which suits large format tile and keeps the look clean.

Questions we hear often.
Do curbless showers leak?
Not when the floor is sloped correctly and the waterproofing covers the full wet area. Most problems come from too little slope toward the drain or a membrane that stops at the edge of the shower.
Can any bathroom have a curbless shower?
Most can, but it depends on the floor structure. In many homes the subfloor has to be recessed so the shower can sit lower than the room. We check the framing on site and explain what it involves before quoting.
Which drain is best for a curbless shower?
A linear drain is the most common choice. Because the floor only has to slope in one direction, it works well with large format tile and natural stone and keeps the floor flat where you walk.
