Customer, Askins, requested a tub replacement to create a more accessible and functional guest bath. The original fiberglass alcove with outdated jets and aging brass fixtures lacked practical features and aesthetic appeal. Remodel scope focused on converting the space into a walk-in shower with improved layout, safer entry, and low-maintenance surfaces suitable for short-term use.

Original curtain setup was replaced with a framed glass sliding enclosure for a tighter water seal and modernized appearance. Light simulated stone panels in a beige marble finish were installed on all three walls, paired with a compact fold-down teak bench and two corner shelves. A mounted chrome grab bar was placed at the back wall for stability, and a handheld shower with vertical slide bar was mounted for flexibility. The updated configuration prioritized user safety, easy access, and a refined guest-ready look.
Joey LeBlanc, the Five Star Bath Solutions representative, recommended the Smart Choice package for its grout-free composite system and durable wall construction. The selected finish offered a natural stone appearance with antimicrobial protection and scratch resistance. Joey explained the system’s waterproofing through marine-grade silicone and a quad-lock seal design. These features eliminated grout lines and helped reduce long-term maintenance issues commonly found in rental units or older homes.
Joey also emphasized the use of solid DensShield backer board and ADA-compliant mounting hardware for all accessories. He detailed the full demo-to-studs process including moisture damage remediation, upgraded plumbing, and tailored shower base to fit existing dimensions. Installation was completed in two days with in-house crew using protective sheeting and performing post-job cleanup. Job documentation and site prep ensured minimal household disruption.
Five Star Bath Solutions offers a lifetime warranty on both materials and labor, transferable to future homeowners. The system includes all structural, waterproofing, and finishing elements with no exclusions. Project was quoted at $18,760 with a promotional rebate reducing total to $13,233.75. Quote honored for 30 days with a price match guarantee for comparable systems.
