The new shower featured large-format Calacatta-style wall panels with bold gray veining, offering a high-end stone appearance without grout. These panels were paired with a coordinating low-threshold base, also finished in a Calacatta print for visual continuity. A recessed niche was built into the side wall to accommodate toiletries, and a single corner shelf was added for overflow storage. Three matte black grab bars were installed—one vertical near the entrance, one horizontal on the rear wall, and one next to the handheld—to meet mobility needs. The shower system included a black handheld fixture with diverter and slide bar for adjustability. No glass door was installed at the time of final photo documentation, suggesting a pending enclosure installation.
The Five Star Bath Solutions representative introduced the Sentrel composite system, which provides the appearance of natural stone with none of the upkeep of tile. These high-resolution printed wall panels resist mold, stains, and scratches, and are bonded to ShowerShield waterproof foam backer board for added structural protection. PEX plumbing lines were included in the upgrade for corrosion resistance and flexibility. The matte black fixture finish was chosen for its durability and contrast. Installation was completed by background-checked in-house professionals for quality control.
The installation involved full demolition of the existing shower and wall finishes down to studs, followed by precise installation of new backers, panels, and fixtures. A recessed shelf was integrated into the wall system during reconstruction, and all grab bars were installed with solid blocking for security. The visual transformation was achieved in a standard four- to five-day timeline, and all materials were custom-cut to fit the space. A frameless glass door may be installed later depending on customer preference or lead time.
Five Star Bath Solutions provides a lifetime, fully transferable warranty covering all installed materials, fixtures, and workmanship. The shower requires minimal maintenance, with no grout to seal or bleach, and routine cleaning can be performed with mild non-abrasive solutions. The customer received a promotional labor discount totaling $5,300 as part of a corporate pricing program. The overall transformation delivered improved safety, style, and durability in a compact footprint.
