The remodeled space features a full white composite tub-and-wall system with seamless floor-to-ceiling panels for easy maintenance and a refreshed appearance. Molded corner shelves were integrated directly into the wall surround, eliminating the need for accessory racks. The new tub includes a low-step three-inch threshold to support safer entry and exit. Chrome fixtures were installed, including a new handheld showerhead and lever diverter controls, delivering a sleek yet straightforward layout. The previous frosted glass doors and metal track were removed in favor of a more open curtain rod system.
Ted McCann, the Five Star Bath Solutions representative, highlighted the company’s focus on safe and practical remodeling, particularly for aging-in-place needs. He emphasized that composite panels outperform tile in durability and upkeep, with no grout to manage and no mold risk. Ted explained that installations go up to the ceiling for complete coverage and that backer boards behind the walls use waterproof dry-lock material. The tub and wall units are made from non-porous materials designed for long-term performance, even with daily use. Ted clarified that the company’s pricing is transparent, and their goal is to deliver long-lasting value instead of upcharges for decorative extras.
Installation includes full demolition of the tub and wall down to the studs, removal of any deteriorated plumbing, and replacement with Delta-compatible fixtures. The new surround is custom-fitted and installed with dry-lock backing, sealed at all seams. All demolition waste is removed by the crew, and the space is prepped for safe and immediate use. Ted noted that all installs are handled by licensed, insured teams, and that their ADA-safe designs are available even if customers decline specific accessibility fixtures like seats or grab bars.
Five Star Bath Solutions offers a lifetime warranty on both product and workmanship, registered to the home. All materials are sourced through reputable suppliers and installed by vetted in-house professionals. The company does not charge extra for scope changes discovered behind the wall after demolition. While the customer originally hoped to stay under a $5,000 budget, Ted explained that long-term, structurally sound installs typically require a higher investment, closer to $10,000. The company remains available for future adjustments and consultation.
