Customer, Darlene, requested their tub be replaced with a walk-in shower to address accessibility and functionality within a compact bathroom layout. The existing setup featured a curved apron tub with a basic white surround and brushed nickel fixtures. Though clean and serviceable, the area lacked waterproofing enhancements, visual appeal, and long-term durability. The update was designed to modernize the space, reduce upkeep, and resolve layout limitations without expanding the footprint.

The Five Star Bath Solutions representative presented several bath-to-shower conversion solutions focused on water management, safety, and low-maintenance design. After reviewing options, the customer selected the Sentrel composite system for its realistic stone appearance and grout-free performance. The representative emphasized the benefits of full-panel wall systems, anti-microbial protection, and the company’s specialized bathroom-only focus. All work would be handled by trained, background-checked local installers, backed by a national franchise with strong warranty coverage.
Installation included complete demolition of the original unit, followed by waterproof wallboard, PEX plumbing upgrades, and a full Sentrel surround in a custom marbled pattern that extended to the ceiling and wrapped the lower wall behind the toilet and vanity. The project included a modern sliding glass door system, two integrated corner shelves, and a brushed nickel handheld showerhead with matching grab bar for safety. A new shower base with integrated linear drain completed the low-threshold transition, providing both slip resistance and visual continuity with the overall design.
Five Star Bath Solutions provides a no-fine-print lifetime warranty on all Sentrel installations, covering material, labor, plumbing, and workmanship, with full transferability to future homeowners. The updated waterproofing system ensures long-term protection from leaks or mold. The installation was completed in two days with minimal disruption and restored full use of the bathroom immediately upon completion. The customer confirmed satisfaction with the improved layout and professional finish.
