The final remodel preserved the tub and introduced new wall panels in a light marble aesthetic, extending from floor to ceiling around the tub for added height and spaciousness. The original curtain rod was replaced with a curved rod to expand the showering space. A chrome handheld showerhead with adjustable settings was installed above a modern square diverter control. A diagonal grab bar was installed along the window wall for support. A molded corner shelf was added for essential storage, blending into the smooth wall system. The original flooring, tub, and plumbing location were retained.
Alexander Fernandez, the Five Star Bath Solutions representative, introduced the company’s Smart Choice system—featuring antimicrobial, grout-free composite panels available in 25 colors. These panels mimic natural stone and are installed over existing tile, reducing disruption and preserving the home’s structure. He emphasized the benefits of a non-porous surface that prevents water absorption and mold growth. Alexander also discussed future flexibility, including compatibility with jetted tub systems, grab bar installation, and design accessories to fit the customer’s preferences and budget.
Installation was scheduled for completion within two days. The process included tear-out of the original wall tile, inspection of existing plumbing, installation of new shower shield backer board, and sealing of all corners with antimicrobial silicone. Technicians used protective runners and cleaned the workspace thoroughly. A curved curtain rod and grab bar were mounted directly to reinforced studs, and a walk-through was conducted to ensure satisfaction. All work was completed without electrical modifications, using existing lighting.
The customer received a full lifetime warranty under the Smart Choice package. This coverage includes product durability, plumbing integrity, silicone sealing, and installation workmanship. The warranty is transferable to future homeowners. Financing options included zero down with no payments for two months, or a one-third upfront deposit for cash customers. Alexander noted active promotions including $1,500 off, 75% off labor, and free design upgrades, with pricing locked for a limited period.
