The Smart Choice composite system from Five Star Bath Solutions was presented as the ideal option for its six-layer, grout-free composite construction that replicates the appearance of natural stone without the maintenance. The panels are antimicrobial, non-porous, and scratch-resistant, providing lasting durability and resistance to mold and mildew. The material requires no harsh cleaners, staying pristine with just vinegar, water, or Windex. After reviewing samples, the customer selected a warm-toned marble look that offered both softness and simplicity, creating a clean, low-maintenance aesthetic.
The installation process includes a complete tear-out to the studs and replacement of all plumbing from the foundation up. The crew inspects for water damage and performs any necessary remediation at no additional cost. Walls are reinforced for grab bars and fold-down seating, and the system is sealed with marine-grade silicone, eliminating the need for future re-caulking. A custom shower pan and full-height wall system were installed, with built-in shelving and a chrome handheld fixture positioned for optimal usability. The project typically takes two days to complete, with installations currently scheduled approximately eight weeks out.
Five Star Bath Solutions provides a lifetime warranty on all Smart Choice installations, covering materials, plumbing, fixtures, and labor. The warranty is fully transferable and remains valid even after home resale. All work is performed by certified in-house installers, not subcontractors. Customers were offered 77% off installation fees, a veteran discount, and a package upgrade to the Smart Choice system at a reduced rate. Although the final price exceeded the customer’s current budget, they were encouraged to retain the quote for future reference.
