Ahmed Elcott walked through the Smart Choice package, which included composite fiberglass-reinforced walls with a waterproof foam core and ADA-compliant hardware. He emphasized that the materials were 100% waterproof and non-organic, reducing the risk of mold and mildew. The Delta handheld system was customized to include a temperature memory valve, and all components were made to order for a precise fit. Ahmed provided material samples and walked through each option. The customer responded positively to the focus on function, simplicity, and low-maintenance finishes.
Five Star Bath Solutions, based in New Britain with a warehouse in North Haven, has served the local market since 1996 and is part of a national franchise with over 100 locations. Ahmed confirmed the company holds license HIC72007, carries $2 million in liability insurance, and uses only certified in-house installers. Installation was scheduled for two days with a lead time of four to six weeks. Scope included demolition of the tub and tile surround, plumbing updates, installation of the walk-in shower, and mounting of wall accessories. Vanity and flooring were excluded and handled separately.
The Smart Choice walk-in shower system includes a 10-year warranty covering materials, labor, and installation when performed by Five Star Bath Solutions. Ahmed also outlined four written guarantees: fixed price agreement, certified labor, damage repair coverage, and 30-day price match. The warranty is fully transferable to future homeowners. Financing options included zero-interest plans and deferred payment structures to support flexible budgeting. The customer appreciated the detailed protection plan and intended to review the proposal with family before finalizing.
