Exemplary embodiments provide a prefabricated modular shower enclosure, including a base with a plurality of engagement feature along a peripheral surface of the base, a plurality of alignment supports, and a surround panel. In some embodiments, at least one alignment support is positionable in a preselected relationship relative to the engagement features of the base, and the alignment supports are configured to be independently made square relative to the base. Additional exemplary embodiments provide a prefabricated shower enclosure, including a base with a plurality of engagement feature along a peripheral surface of the base, and a plurality of surround panels that engage the base. The modular shower enclosure reduces installation time and complexity by using components that are fabricated and cut to size offsite prior to installation at a job site.

A toilet installed in a bathroom includes a toilet bowl and a tank coupled to the toilet bowl. The tank can contain fluid for the toilet bowl. A rear surface of the tank is flush against a wall of the bathroom such that there is no gap between the tank and the wall and a bottom surface of the tank is flush against a floor of the bathroom such that there is no gap between the tank and the floor. The tank extends longitudinally above and below the toilet bowl and laterally outward past the toilet bowl such that a first side surface and a second side surface of the tank define outermost side peripheries of the toilet.

A stone niche assembly system and method is disclosed, which includes collapsed and adjustable modular stone tile components with stabilizing grooves to be assembled into a stone niche for installation in the wall of a shower enclosure, for example.

The invention is generally directed to a bathing assembly that allows for conversion between a bathtub and shower as desired by the user. The assembly includes a bathtub insert positioned on one of the bathtub sidewalls. The insert is watertight and allows the bathtub to function fully when installed. The insert can be easily removed from the bathtub sidewall, allowing access to the shower stall with minimal step over barrier. A hanger is positioned on one wall of the shower stall to retain the insert until it is needed again (e.g., when a user desires to take a bath). The assembly further includes an overflow drain positioned in the bathtub sidewall opening created when the insert is removed, acting as an added safety feature when the shower is in use. The assembly therefore allows a user to enjoy the benefits of both a walk-in shower and bathtub without requiring major renovations or costly updates.

A bathroom module includes a shower area that includes a shower head, a control valve assembly, and a drain. The module also includes a toilet area including a toilet assembly and a transition area disposed between the shower area and the toilet area. The module also includes a shower area front wall and a shower area side wall, the shower area disposed along a first side of the shower area front wall and a first side of the shower area side wall. The module also includes a toilet area front wall and a toilet area side wall, the toilet area disposed along a first side of the toilet area front wall and a first side of the toilet area side wall. A grooming area includes a sink assembly that comprises a faucet, and the grooming area is disposed along a second side of at least one of the shower area front wall, the shower area side wall, the toilet area front wall, and the toilet area side wall.

A flooring system includes a gridwork having a modular configuration that defines a grid with cells for receiving a filler material which forms a bed or floor base sloping toward a drain fixture. The gridwork includes different groupings of leveling holes located at selected junctions between adjacent cells that are arranged to selectively move or tilt the gridwork relative to an underlying base in conjunction with the formation of the bed or floor base.

A connection structure of shower column systems includes fixing member, shower column body having containing cavity, connecting pipe communicating with water supply pipe, and hose in the containing cavity. The shower column body includes installation part having movement channel communicating with the containing cavity; the installation part is installed on the fixing member; the connecting pipe is in wall, an end thereof passes the movement channel to move axially; the hose communicates with water inlet of the shower column body and passes the movement channel to communicate with the connecting pipe. Flexible connection through the hose and connecting pipe makes more adjustment room than rigid connection. Distance between the connecting pipe and shower column body is adjusted by moving the connecting pipe in the movement channel. System adjustment and installation are quickly completed according to different depths of water supply pipes. Sealing performance of products wouldn't be influenced during adjusting.
