The design featured Calacatta-style composite wall panels with soft veining and a coordinating solid-surface base. A built-in three-tiered shelf system was recessed into the wall for easy storage. A square brushed-nickel wand and valve were installed, delivering ergonomic water control. One grab bar spans the rear wall, and another vertical bar was installed near the entry. The overall palette stayed neutral, focusing on clean tones rather than the originally described blue accent scheme.
Zach Sterling, the Five Star Bath Solutions representative, recommended the Smart Choice package for its combination of waterproof strength, accessibility, and simplified maintenance. The composite wall system uses a six-layer printed surface that resists mold, staining, and scratches. Brushed nickel fixtures were selected to harmonize with the veining in the wall panels. Zach explained that the integrated flange shower base reduces leaks and eliminates the need for mats due to its naturally non-slip surface.
Installation was completed over two days by certified in-house specialists. Crews demolished the tub and wall system down to the studs, replaced plumbing with upgraded pressure-balanced valves, and installed the Shower Shield waterproof backer. Grab bars and shelving were mounted after customer walk-through to confirm positioning. Glass doors were set with precise leveling to support smooth use and water retention.
This project was completed under Five Star Bath Solutions’ no-surprise guarantee, with all components protected by a fully transferable lifetime warranty. The coverage applies to panels, parts, labor, and caulking, and remains valid across ownership transfers. The proposal also included retirement and review-based discounts, with a 30-day price match guarantee and a $100 rebate if better pricing is found on comparable materials and service.
