The final installation included a standard tub unit surrounded by full-height marble-look composite panels in a white and gray pattern. Three integrated corner shelves were added for storage, placed at staggered heights for accessibility. Brushed nickel fixtures were selected, including a square-profile faucet, single-handle temperature control, and handheld sprayer with a flexible hose. Two grab bars were installed, one horizontal along the back wall and one vertical near the entrance, both mounted securely through the panel system for safety.
Tad Ruggeri from Five Star Bath Solutions introduced the Smart Choice USA-made wall system featuring antimicrobial, closed-cell PVC construction that mimics the appearance of real stone while resisting mold and soap scum buildup. The system is built in six layers for durability and easy maintenance. Tad also highlighted the company’s employee-only installers, extensive warranty coverage, and homeowner protections including a no-surprise price guarantee and transferable lifetime warranty. He explained that all installations use PEX-A plumbing for better pressure and flexibility, with Delta fixtures installed to ensure performance longevity.
Installation required a full demo to the studs, new backer board application, and updated plumbing. The team completed the project with wall protection, custom-fit trim, and a glass door installed over the tub for water control. The new finish visually coordinates with the home’s gray-toned flooring, achieving a modern and polished appearance.
Five Star Bath Solutions backs the entire project with a transferable lifetime warranty covering labor, material, and waterproofing. The company offers flexible financing and maintains certified employee labor throughout the process, avoiding subcontracting unless a licensed electrician is needed for specialty components. The homeowner expressed confidence in the company’s warranty structure and long-term service assurance.
