The Smart Choice composite wall system was recommended to meet these goals, featuring antimicrobial, grout-free surfaces with a realistic natural stone appearance. The panels were fabricated from quarter-inch virgin PVC and digitally printed in high resolution for depth and realism. Matching corner trim, fully integrated shelving, and precision-sealed seams ensure long-term water protection and easy maintenance. The upgrade included both a square rain-style showerhead and a separate handheld wand, each installed in a coordinated chrome finish to match all other visible accessories.
The existing tub and surrounding tile were removed during a full demolition, followed by installation of a non-slip, low-threshold shower base. Structural framing and plumbing were inspected and replaced as needed. The new composite panels were custom-fitted to the dimensions of the space, and recessed shelving was built into the left side for accessible storage. Three shelves were integrated rather than the requested four, and no curtain rod or grab bar was included—contrary to the original preference. A frameless design was used, leaving the entry open for future customization.
The system comes with a fully transferable lifetime warranty that includes all panels, hardware, labor, and sealing materials. All work was completed by certified, background-checked employees using protective site coverings and same-day cleanup protocols. Installation required two days, with pre-measurement and layout confirmation conducted in advance. The customer was advised of potential upgrade options such as grab bars or seating, which could be added at a later time if needed.
