What is the practical difference between a P-shaped and an L-shaped shower bath, and which should you pick for a family bathroom?

A P-shaped bath gives you a wider showering area at one end while keeping a standard bath length, so you get a roomy standing shower and a comfortable bath in the same footprint. An L-shaped bath also creates extra shower space but usually with a different curve and layout suited to corner installations. If you shower every day and want more standing room without enlarging the room, a P-shaped 1700 x 900mm pack is a strong choice for a family bathroom.

Do I need a side panel or a side and end panel, and how does the left/right handing affect installation?

Use a side panel when the bath sits in an alcove and you only need to cover the longest side; choose a side and end panel when the bath sits in a corner so both the long and short sides are finished. Handing (left or right) tells you which side the shower screen and wider shower area sit on, so pick the same handing as your existing plumbing and bathroom access. If the wider shower curve and screen will be on the right when you face the bath, order a right-hand pack.

How do the polished chrome and contemporary black finishes change the look and maintenance of the mixer shower and drenchers?

Polished chrome gives a classic, reflective look that pairs easily with chrome taps and is forgiving with fingerprints, while contemporary black creates a bold, on-trend contrast that suits matte or minimalist bathrooms. Square drenchers read as crisp and modern, whereas round drenchers feel softer and more traditional, so match the drench head shape to your bathroom style. Bear in mind black fittings can show water spots more readily, so a quick wipe will keep them looking sharp.

Will a 1700 x 900mm P-shaped pack give enough room to shower comfortably without making the bath too big for a typical bathroom?

Yes, 1700 x 900mm is a common and practical size that balances bath length for bathing with a generous 900mm width for showering, especially with the P-shaped bulge that increases standing space. It suits many family bathrooms where you want both a full-length bath and a proper shower area. Do measure your bathroom doorways and the available floor plan first to ensure it fits comfortably.

Are mixer showers and screens included in these packs, and are black mixer options available?

Many packs in this range are sold as complete sets that include the P-shaped bath, mixer shower, glass screen and the appropriate panels, so you get everything to create a shower-bath in one go. There are both polished chrome mixer options and contemporary black mixer options listed, with the black-finish packs shown at a slightly higher price in some configurations. If you want a coordinated look, choose the finish that matches your taps and accessories.
