Ella's Bubbles manufactures its own custom shower bases and shower wall panel systems, along with acrylic wall surrounds designed for walk-in tubs. Shower bases come in standard sizes as well as fully custom dimensions, and wall panels are built to a consistent 98 inch height in a few different finish styles. If you are planning a shower or walk-in tub installation, your Ella dealer or the team at (800) 480-6850 can help match the base, walls, and surround to your space.

Wall Surrounds for Walk-In Tubs

For walk-in tubs, Ella's Bubbles offers wall surround systems that enclose the area around the tub, and an acrylic top portion is available for these surrounds. This gives the installation a finished, water tight look above the tub deck. See the wall kit sizes overview for how these surrounds compare to shower wall kits.

Shower Wall Panels

Shower wall panels are manufactured at 98 inches high, with side panels measuring 40 inches and the back wall panel measuring 60 inches. Panels are available in a few different styles, including a plain white finish, a CNC routed design with light gray grout lines, and a digital print option. Because styles and finishes vary, ask your Ella dealer or call (800) 480-6850 to see samples and confirm which option fits your bathroom. More wall kit specifications are covered in the wall kit sizes article.

Standard and Custom Shower Base Sizes

Ella's Bubbles manufactures its own shower bases in standard sizes of 30x60, 32x60, and 36x60 inches, each available with a left or right drain. Fully custom base sizes are also manufactured; for example, a custom 58x30 inch base with a center drain has been produced. A custom shower base typically has a threshold of about 3 inches. Standard sizing details, along with barrier free options, are compared in the shower base sizes and thresholds article.

Zero Threshold Bases

For a barrier free entry, zero threshold shower bases are also available. These sit flush with the surrounding floor instead of the roughly 3 inch step found on standard custom bases, which can make entry easier. Your Ella dealer or the team at (800) 480-6850 can confirm which threshold style is right for your bathroom and how it fits with your existing plumbing rough-in.

Multi-Piece Kits and Related Options

Shower bases are often paired with multi-piece wall kits rather than sold as stand alone pieces. The shower kits and bases overview covers how bases, wall panels, and roll-in configurations work together, and the glass shower screen installation article covers adding a four-fold or LayDown glass screen once the base and walls are in place.
