        "text": "A zero-threshold shower eliminates the raised curb entirely, allowing seamless roll-in or step-in entry, whereas a low-curb shower retains a shallow lip of several inches to retain water. Zero-threshold builds require dropping or tapering the subfloor, installing specialized sloped pans, and extensive waterproofing beneath the tile. A low-curb design involves less floor restructuring and can be quicker to build, but it still presents a slight obstacle for individuals using walkers or wheelchairs. Choosing between them depends on current mobility needs and future planning.",
