The upgraded fixtures included brushed nickel hardware throughout, featuring a square Delta Ashland showerhead with a detachable handheld component. A straight brushed nickel rod replaced the older curved model to visually declutter the space and reduce protrusion. A built-in shave step was selected instead of a bench to support leg shaving without obstructing floor access, and a 24-inch safety grab bar was positioned on the control wall for added support.
The selected wall finish was White Pearl from the Smart Choice line, offering subtle veining and a soft, stone-like texture that aligns with the room’s updated tile flooring. A coordinating 11x11 recessed wall niche was added for built-in product storage, and the ceiling panel was fabricated in the same wall finish to complete the enclosure visually. A 2x2-inch tile-style base was installed to enhance grip while keeping a cohesive aesthetic with the rest of the surface materials.
The representative introduced the Smart Choice six-layer antimicrobial composite system, emphasizing its natural stone-inspired visuals, low maintenance, and resistance to mold and bacteria. The panels are twice as thick as acrylic and require no grout or sealing. A waterproof DensShield backer and quad-lock corner system were included, supported by thermal-insulated PVC base construction for a solid and stable feel underfoot.
Installation involved full demolition to the studs, reinforcement of framing as needed, PEX plumbing line installation, Delta mixing valves, and a full two-day build timeline. Crews protected surrounding floors, removed debris on-site without a dumpster, and conducted a final walk-through. All work was performed by certified, locally managed installers operating under an A+ BBB-rated business.
The company provided a Lifetime Plus Warranty covering product, labor, and workmanship with full transferability. Pricing options included a standard quote and a promotional quote with 77% off labor, reducing the total from over $18,000 to $14,405. Flexible financing allowed deferred payments with $205/month and no prepayment penalties, enabling the customer to lock in savings ahead of an expected bonus. A final measure appointment was scheduled for custom adjustments before ordering.
