Customer, Linda, requested their bathtub be converted into a walk-in shower to provide safer access for an older family member. The original unit featured a high-step fiberglass tub with a handheld showerhead and no built-in seating or grab bars, raising concerns about safety and usability. The family initially considered cutting the existing tub to lower the step-in height but ultimately sought a complete solution that would eliminate hazards while offering more permanence and structure.

The Five Star Bath Solutions representative introduced the company’s full-removal remodel process, emphasizing safety, structural integrity, and accessibility. The customer selected a neutral-toned wall system with a subtle stone pattern, matched with matte black fixtures and accessories. Built-in corner shelves and a matching black curtain rod helped maintain a clean, open layout. Grab bars were deemed essential and would be securely mounted to studs with backing for enhanced support. A two- to four-inch low-threshold base was chosen to balance ease of access with splash control, and a built-in bench replaced any need for removable seating.
Installation included the complete removal of the fiberglass tub, wall surround, and associated plumbing fixtures. The team cut the original unit into sections for safe disposal, replaced the subfloor as needed, and installed new waterproof backer board and plumbing components. A premium PVC composite wall system rated for 800 pounds was installed along with the molded base, built-in bench, shelving, and updated fixtures. Measurements had been confirmed by a technician during a pre-installation visit to finalize grab bar placement and ensure compliance with the customer’s accessibility goals. The total install was completed within two days following the lead time for material delivery.

The company stands behind its craftsmanship with no exclusions, and also offers extended pricing guarantees and promotional upgrade options.
