Ted Milo from Five Star Bath Solutions highlighted the company's extensive 35-year history as a trusted local bathroom renovation specialist. He emphasized their exclusive focus on bathrooms and their outstanding reputation through customer referrals and excellent online reviews. Ted recommended their antimicrobial, grout-free composite wall system manufactured in the USA, chosen for its ease of cleaning, durability, and mold resistance.
The completed project accurately incorporates these recommendations, featuring smooth, seamless composite wall panels in a sophisticated marble-inspired gray and white finish. The new walk-in shower includes brushed nickel fixtures, a detachable handheld showerhead, and strategically placed grab bars for enhanced safety and functionality. A practical fold-down teak shower seat provides additional accessibility, perfectly aligning with customer requirements. Customizable corner shelving was added to conveniently accommodate large-sized bottles, meeting the family's storage needs.
The final installation utilizes a curtain rod instead of glass doors, providing an open and easily accessible space, in line with the customer's preference. The flooring and shower base seamlessly match the composite wall system, ensuring continuity and ease of cleaning.
Five Star Bath Solutions carefully executed the comprehensive renovation within the promised timeframe of just 1–2 days, which included thorough demolition down to studs, complete mold remediation, ventilation improvements, and installation of waterproof dry-lock backer boards sealed securely with marine-grade silicone. All plumbing lines were updated to reliable standards, and the work was completed by licensed, insured, and certified professionals.
Ted highlighted the robust lifetime warranty from Five Star Bath Solutions, transferable to future homeowners and covering all labor, installation, and materials comprehensively. Their clear pricing structure, responsive post-installation support, and commitment to cleanliness and professionalism—including the use of HEPA filters to manage dust and mold during renovation—provided peace of mind and confidence in the long-term durability of their bathroom.
The homeowners expressed strong satisfaction, appreciating Five Star Bath Solutions’ transparent approach and comprehensive service, and confirmed their intention to proceed upon securing their financing.
