ᐅ Bathroom Design

It also depends on how much lime is in the water. But: the fewer parts there are, the less cleaning is needed. A glass door also has hinges, a frame, and who knows what else—corners and edges everywhere. Maybe consider planning without a curtain and door and partially building a half wall? Or a walk-in spiral design—I’ve seen that before too.

And in a walk-in spiral, there isn’t much cleaning to do??? 😱
What world are you living in... Now you’re even saying with mosaic tiles, super easy to maintain. It’s nice that you apparently think dirt you don’t see isn’t there either... 🙄

What world are you living in? Aren’t you overreacting a bit now?

But when planning… I would always plan without a curtain, so with glass! And if you have space: without anything at all!

I just don’t understand this statement at all! Do you actually believe that the limescale—which you can’t see compared to on tiles—really doesn’t exist??? I find glass always looks clean after regular wiping, whereas tiles are really difficult to remove limescale from, because of the annoying grout lines, you can’t wipe them off as well, in my opinion…

Aren’t you contradicting yourself now???

Honestly: if I can’t see limescale, then it’s not there! 🙂 I chose against glass deliberately because no one in my family wants to wipe it down every day and possibly polish it afterward.
My experience with mosaic tiles on walls over 15 years was so positive that I also installed glass mosaics in the new build.
If you feel you have to clean corners where no dirt is visible but in your opinion dirt is there—go ahead. In my life, dirt is visible. Everything else can occasionally be disinfected.
You young ladies are, in my opinion, a bit excessive with cleaning compulsions anyway 😉

Ultimately, this is about fundamental planning of temporary solutions in a new build—where I would step back, as @Häuslebau3r so nicely quoted!

Lime is not dirt. Especially not when you don't see it.

Well, everyone seems to have their own definition of clean... And limescale-covered fixtures are not considered dirty??? 😱 Okay, I probably shouldn’t comment on this topic anymore. :o

limescale build-up on fittings

So far, we were talking about tiles, not fittings.
