Customer, Chris, requested replacement of their existing tub and surround with a new composite surround and tub, removal of an awkward interior partition to open the space, and installation of gray stone-look LVP flooring. The homeowner wanted a clean black-and-white aesthetic to complement a newly purchased vanity, and managed wall painting and toilet reinstallation to limit costs.

Shelby Ball of Five Star Bath Solutions recommended the SmartChoice composite package for its realistic stone-look appearance, low maintenance, and complete waterproofing. Panels by Centrel are quarter-inch-thick, matte-finished slabs featuring high-definition printing of subway-tile visuals—no shiny coating to wear through or grout to discolor. Behind the panels, proprietary ShowerShield backer board combines closed-cell foam and cement mesh for mold resistance and structural integrity. Commercial-grade Delta plumbing valves were specified, and all seals use marine-grade silicone rather than standard caulk.
Installation spanned three days: protective floor runners were laid, existing surround and framing were removed down to the studs, and the interior wall was reframed out to open sightlines. Technicians repaired framing as needed, installed the solid composite anti-slip base, snapped in factory-mitered composite panels, and applied marine-grade silicone seals. Two large triangular corner shelves were set, and a horizontal and a vertical stainless-steel grab bar were mounted per code—despite initial declination, the homeowner approved the bars for future accessibility. A curved stainless-steel shower curtain rod replaced the planned glass door, fulfilling budget and aesthetic goals.
Five Star Bath Solutions provided a lifetime fully transferable warranty on all materials, parts, and labor, supported by five written guarantees: Best Value (price match + $100), Certified Craftsman (in-house installers only), No Surprise Promise (no hidden-damage change orders), Property Protection (careful site handling), and Timeline Guarantee ($100 credit if delayed). Spring promotions included 75 % off labor and a corporate-sponsored upgrade from acrylic to composite. With the composite upgrade and review commitment discounts applied, the total project investment was $16,245 + tax, with financing available from $189 per month.
