Mike Kellerman of Five Star Bath Solutions presented the Smart Choice system, highlighting antimicrobial, scratch-resistant composite panels designed for high-moisture environments. The company’s proprietary Shower Shield backer system and marine-grade silicone sealant eliminate the risk of leaks, grout breakdown, and mold regrowth. Mike noted that their commercial-grade Delta fixtures, including the rain-style handheld system, are backed with heavy-duty hardware and mounted into reinforced blocking. A full wall surround package, paired with a non-slip low-threshold base, helped achieve both safety and a modern, sealed design.
Demolition uncovered structural rot and tile failure beneath the tub, which the crew removed and replaced before installing the new system. Installation included plumbing upgrades, backer paneling, custom panel cuts around the window trim, new wall and base fixtures, and two secure grab bars. Crew completed the project over three days, protecting surrounding flooring and maintaining a clean work zone throughout.
Five Star Bath Solutions provides a lifetime transferable warranty that covers labor, product, plumbing, and sealant—glass door warranty follows manufacturer guidelines. Customer selected brushed nickel finish and approved the same-day quote to lock in a bundled discount. The final proposal included $1,250 in combined savings via marketing participation, partial upfront payment, and review incentive. Financing available with flexible terms, structured around final approval and project scope.
