Brushed nickel was selected for the hardware finish to match the space’s neutral palette. A large-format tile-look panel in a light stone aesthetic was installed throughout the shower walls, window surround, and base for a seamless, modern upgrade. A fixed bench seat was included on the rear wall for seated use. The system included a two-in-one shower configuration with both overhead rain head and handheld sprayer, along with three integrated corner shelves. The teak fold-down bench and curtain rod originally discussed were not installed and are not part of the final build.
Tabitha Lambert introduced the Smart Choice grout-free composite wall system and outlined its six-layer antimicrobial surface construction. She explained how the material resists mold and discoloration and never requires regrouting. The company’s exclusive waterproof shower shield backer board forms a leakproof foundation that supports their fully transferable lifetime warranty. Tabitha also emphasized that all work is performed by background-checked employees only and that product placement preferences such as shelf height and valve placement could be honored.
Installation included full demo to the studs and plumbing replacement using PEX lines. A non-slip composite base was installed flush with the floor, providing a 2–3 inch step-in height. Grab bars were securely mounted and all seams sealed with marine-grade antimicrobial silicone. The company’s quad-lock moisture protection system was installed behind the panels to redirect any trapped water. Clear glass doors were mounted for accessibility and to retain heat during showers. The final installation closely followed the initial design with necessary field adjustments.
The Smart Choice package selected by the customer includes a fully transferable lifetime warranty covering all parts, plumbing, labor, and accessories. Tabitha outlined the No Surprise Guarantee, which protects against hidden costs, and the Price Assurance Guarantee, which guarantees project cost competitiveness. Final project cost was $12,878 after corporate package upgrade. A $4,000 down payment was made with the remaining balance split into six-month installments to align with the customer’s income schedule.
