Portsmouth Outdoor Shower

This custom outdoor shower in Portsmouth, Rhode Island was designed to complement the coastal charm of the property while offering lasting durability. The shower structure is built with pine, chosen for its classic appearance and affordability, then sealed for added protection against the elements. The floor features low-maintenance Trex decking, providing a clean, slip-resistant surface that holds up well to moisture and heavy use.
