Tub To Shower Conversion

Hill St, Rockford, IL , 61107

Josh from Five Star Bath Solutions introduced a walk-in shower solution designed to match the unique layout while maximizing both style and safety. The new system was custom-fitted to the angled ceiling with laser-cut paneling and seamless wall design. Instead of traditional grout-lined tile, the install featured a clean, nonporous surface for easier upkeep and mold resistance. Josh pointed out the Oxford finish series to reflect the client’s interest in a veined marble aesthetic, though the final visual shows a plain bright white composite, indicating a shift toward minimalism.

The installation included a matte black fixture suite with a rainfall-style showerhead, integrated handheld sprayer, and single diverter control for improved accessibility. A recessed wall niche was added for in-shower product storage without compromising floor space. A corner grab bar was not installed despite the original two-bar request, possibly reserved for future customization. The system incorporated an ADA-compliant low threshold base and slip-resistant surface for safer entry.

Josh outlined a one-to-two-day installation timeline managed by certified in-house technicians. The original jetted tub was removed entirely, debris hauled away, and new surfaces cleaned for immediate use. He emphasized that no subcontractors are used, ensuring consistency and specialized product handling. Customer flexibility in scheduling was also noted as part of the support process.

The project was covered by a lifetime manufacturer’s warranty on all installed materials and a 10-year labor warranty. These guarantees included a no-leak promise, full repair at no cost if material or install issues arise, and full transferability for future resale benefit. Josh reinforced the company's high satisfaction rating and regional recognition to support the value of the investment.
