The original tub, curtain, and insert were removed and replaced with a walk-in shower featuring stone-look composite walls in a subway tile pattern. A low-threshold base and a sliding textured glass door were installed for easier access. While brushed nickel finishes were originally requested, the completed setup includes chrome fixtures, including a multi-function handheld showerhead with a flexible hose, a modern control valve, and structural grab bars. Three corner shelves and a matching corner seat were installed for storage and comfort. The dark flooring from the original layout was retained in the new design rather than changed to a lighter tone.
Tabitha Lambert from Five Star Bath Solutions described the company’s strong local presence in Broussard and its reputation for satisfaction-driven remodeling. She highlighted the value of their certified employee crews, full insurance coverage, and background checks for all installers. Tabitha reviewed the benefits of their Smart Choice package, featuring grout-free antimicrobial composite wall panels with designer stone looks, eliminating the upkeep of real stone. She also detailed the use of a proprietary shower shield backer board that offers added waterproofing and long-term durability.
Installation involved full tear-out to the studs, inspection and repair of any hidden water damage, and full plumbing upgrades. The composite walls were sealed with antimicrobial marine-grade silicone to prevent mold and eliminate the need for re-caulking. Tabitha indicated the job could be completed in two to three days and clarified that all required repairs, including framing, were included in the project scope. Final measurements were taken during a hard measure appointment prior to confirming the installation date.
Five Star Bath Solutions backs the full Smart Choice system with a fully transferable lifetime warranty that remains valid through resale or inheritance. Coverage applies to all major components, including backer board, sealants, and wall materials. Tabitha offered incentives such as a 77% discount on installation fees and a free upgrade to premium materials for signing the contract same-day. The payment structure required only one-third down with the remainder due upon project completion.
