Tub To Shower Conversion

Briarwood Drive, Seymour, CT , 06483

The remodeled shower features a low-threshold base and custom wall panels in a light stone-style composite finish. A recessed double-shelf niche was installed for storage, and three brushed nickel grab bars were mounted vertically and horizontally for accessibility. Matching hardware included a brushed nickel Delta handheld showerhead and control valve. The floor-integrated base and seamless composite walls provide a watertight, grout-free surface ideal for long-term maintenance reduction.

Curtis Saxton introduced Five Star Bath Solutions’ Smart Choice wall system, detailing its six-layer composite build with antimicrobial and waterproof properties. He emphasized the UV-protected surface designed to resist discoloration and mold, offering the appearance of natural stone without the upkeep. Curtis explained that the company is locally owned but backed by a national support network, providing both regional accountability and robust warranty support. He also noted Five Star’s A+ BBB rating, $2 million insurance coverage, and verified customer reviews.

Installation began with full demolition to the studs, followed by inspection and structural prep. Waterproof cement-coated backer board was installed, and the base was secured with a non-slip texture and three-inch threshold for safe access. Wall panels were custom-fitted on-site and sealed with marine-grade silicone to prevent water intrusion. Curtis explained that installation typically takes two to three days and includes debris removal and full site cleanup.

The remodel was protected by Five Star’s lifetime transferable warranty covering product, labor, and parts. The system was also backed by a No Surprise Guarantee for unexpected repairs, a Certified Craftsman Guarantee to ensure workmanship quality, and a Property Protection Guarantee covering any accidental damage during installation. The homeowner chose to proceed, citing confidence in the installation timeline and long-term coverage.
