Luxury and accessibility can go hand in hand — especially when it comes to the modern bathroom. Across Southwest Florida, more homeowners are choosing barrier-free showers, also known as curbless showers, for their combination of sleek design, easy maintenance, and long-term usability. At Varian Construction, we specialize in creating spaces that look as beautiful as they are practical, helping homeowners enjoy both comfort and style for years to come.
A barrier-free shower removes the raised step or threshold at the entrance to the shower, allowing for a smooth, level transition between the bathroom floor and the shower. This not only enhances the feeling of openness but also makes the shower safer and more accessible for people of all ages and abilities. The design is perfect for those planning to age in place — a growing priority in Southwest Florida’s active retirement communities.
In addition to safety, barrier-free showers offer a distinctly modern and luxurious look. Frameless glass, floor-to-ceiling tile, and linear drains create clean, uninterrupted lines that make the bathroom appear larger and more inviting. Pair these elements with slip-resistant flooring, built-in benches, and handheld showerheads, and you’ll have a space that feels like a private spa while remaining functional and safe.
Because of our humid coastal climate, Southwest Florida homes require extra attention to detail. Varian Construction ensures every project includes proper drainage, waterproof membranes, and durable materials to prevent water damage and mold growth. Our team also reinforces shower walls for future grab bar installation — an easy way to add stability without compromising style.
For many homeowners, barrier-free showers are part of a bigger goal: designing a home that’s both beautiful and livable. Whether you’re remodeling a master suite or building a new custom home, this feature adds lasting value and appeal. It’s a thoughtful investment that enhances comfort today and supports independence in the future.
