Tom Seesz from Five Star Bath Solutions explained the non-porous solid composite wall system, guaranteed against cracking, discoloration, or resealing. Solid-core shower base rests directly on subfloor for long-term stability. Proprietary thermal-expansion sealant replaces caulk to prevent shrinkage and mold. Delta commercial-grade valve system carries lifetime parts and labor coverage with no travel fees. As a locally owned company relying on referrals over television ads, Five Star maintains competitive pricing and close customer communication.
Installation process: full demo to studs, mold remediation, subfloor inspection, new plumbing from trap up, DensShield waterproof backer behind panels, and steel-backed anchors for bench, shelf, grab bars, and niche. Glass doors receive Invisible Shield water-repelling coating. Typical lead time four to six weeks from contract; onsite work completed in one day after pre-construction meeting.
Five Star Bath Solutions backs materials and labor with fully transferable lifetime warranty at no charge for future service or disposal. Quoted project price remained $12,550 after $1,000 internet coupon and $1,000 social-media incentive, inclusive of tax and permit fees. Optional upgrades unchanged: color-design wall pattern ($2,000), SimTile ($3,775), brushed-nickel finish ($295), Onyx vanity top and faucet ($2,255), complete vanity replacement ($2,710). Financing available with 10 % down and payments near $169 per month on approved credit.
