Final installation featured textured stone-look composite panels in varied taupe tones, creating a more contemporary, cohesive backdrop. A frameless-style sliding glass door system replaced the original tub hardware. Black hardware was used throughout, including grab bars and fixtures. Two corner shelves were added along with a recessed wall niche for storage. A fold-down teak bench was mounted along the rear wall. The updated space maintained the surrounding paneled walls while introducing darker finishes for contrast.
Scot Kemmer from Five Star Bath Solutions recommended the Smart Choice system to ensure waterproofing and reduce upkeep. The proprietary ShowerShield backer board, paired with antimicrobial PVC panels, created a mold-resistant, grout-free environment. Materials were selected to withstand wear, resist discoloration, and clean easily with soap and water.
Installation was handled by full-time, background-checked specialists following a complete demo to studs. All plumbing was upgraded to PEX, and a new waterproof shower base was thermally insulated and leveled for flush access. Rotten subfloor and framing material were removed at no additional cost. The project was completed in a single phase alongside other bathroom upgrades, including floor and fixture replacements.
Five Star Bath Solutions provides a lifetime transferable warranty covering product and labor. This includes full coverage on all Smart Choice components, caulking systems, and structural repairs unless specialty remediation is required.
