Customer, Nancy, requested their outdated tub-shower combo be replaced with a cleaner, more accessible walk-in shower that maintained simplicity while improving long-term function and appearance. Safety and ease of use were emphasized, and a seated configuration was preferred. The goal was to modernize the space with a layout that reduced clutter and provided easier access, while maintaining a calm, neutral aesthetic.

The final remodel included a frameless fixed glass panel on both ends with open entry, eliminating the original curtain setup. A low-threshold shower base replaced the tub, paired with full wall and ceiling coverage using marble-style panels with soft veining. Two grab bars were installed, one vertical and one horizontal, along with a wall-mounted handheld showerhead for flexibility. A triangular corner bench added seated comfort without occupying excess space. Flooring was replaced with wide-plank wood-look vinyl, contributing to a more refined, coordinated space. The upgraded vanity and lighting completed the transitional look.
Mike Kellerman, representing Five Star Bath Solutions, guided the customer to the Smart Choice package for its performance value. He highlighted features such as antimicrobial, scratch-resistant composite panels and a waterproof backer board engineered to resist mold. The representative emphasized ease of cleaning, flexibility in visual design, and added longevity with marine-grade sealants and Delta commercial-grade hardware.
The Smart Choice system is built from virgin PVC and includes a non-organic backer board that prevents water infiltration and mold growth. The wall system was extended to the ceiling for improved dust control. A lifetime transferable warranty covers walls, sealants, hardware, and structure. The shower door carries a separate manufacturer warranty. All installations were performed by certified, full-time employees from the local office, ensuring consistency and professionalism.
Mike shared that pricing started at $18,812 but could be brought to $12,446 with cash discounts, online reviews, and same-day upgrade options. Flexible financing plans included low-to-no upfront costs or split-payment options with zero-interest offers. The project was scheduled eight weeks out and completed in under three days.
