Zach Sterling from Five Star Bath Solutions presented the Smart Choice package, explaining the benefits of their exclusive six-layer composite wall system. The surface features a built-in antimicrobial and anti-scratch coating, with embedded color layers for fade resistance. The walls were installed over a solid Shower Shield backer board, which is waterproof, moldproof, and non-organic. Zach highlighted the durability advantage of this system over tile or fiberglass, which often trap moisture and require caulking maintenance. He also introduced the marine-grade adhesives and silicone used for installation, designed to resist breakdown and ensure long-term bonding.
The crew performed full removal of the blue fiberglass enclosure, with demo carried down to the studs. New PEX plumbing lines and a valve replacement were installed behind the wall prior to setting the new tub and panel system. The clean-lined chrome trim, updated shower arm, and curved curtain rod were added to complete the system. A single horizontal grab bar was installed on the rear wall to improve safety without compromising aesthetics. The installation respected all design goals for balance, accessibility, and ease of resale.
Five Star Bath Solutions included a fully transferable lifetime warranty that covers all components from wall panels to caulking, including resealing over time. Zach emphasized that the warranty does not void due to installer error and legally passes to new homeowners or heirs. Pricing included a 30-day lock, all taxes, and guaranteed coverage for any structural issues found during demo under their no-surprise policy. Additional benefits included retiree discounts, same-day decision incentives, and a $275 referral reward for any future customer brought in by the homeowner.
