The End of Scrubbing: How Five Star Bath Solutions' Walls Save Time, Money, and Headaches

Let’s be honest. Cleaning the bathroom is no one’s favorite chore. Scrubbing grout, wiping mold, chasing soap scum... it’s like the shower is fighting back. But it doesn’t have to be that way.
At Five Star Bath Solutions, we believe your bathroom should make life easier, not harder. That’s why we use smart, solid wall panels that look amazing and are super easy to keep clean.
No grout. No headaches. Just a beautiful bathroom you’ll actually enjoy.
Here’s why more and more homeowners are trading in their tile for something better.

Why We Don’t Miss Grout (And You Won’t Either)
Tile showers might look beautiful on day one, but it doesn’t take long before the grout starts showing its true colors—literally.
Grout lines may seem small, but they cause big problems. They’re porous, which means they soak up water, soap, shampoo, and whatever else finds its way into your shower. That creates the perfect little hideout for mold, mildew, and bacteria.
To keep grout from turning into a science experiment, here’s what you’re usually stuck doing:
- Scrubbing grout with harsh cleaners. Fun fact: no one enjoys this. It’s time-consuming, messy, and not great for your back… or your weekend plans.
- Sealing it every 6–12 months. Yes, even if you’re busy. Grout doesn’t care. Skip it once, and your grout might start breaking down and letting water behind your walls.
- Replacing it when it cracks, stains, or starts to crumble. Which it will. Eventually. That means tearing it out and regrouting—again and again.
But with Five Star Bath Solutions’ solid wall panels? None of that applies.
- No grout.
- No scrubbing.
- No sealing.
- No mold hiding out in dark corners.
Our panels are smooth and non-porous, so grime has nowhere to hide. With just a quick wipe-down, your walls are fresh, clean, and ready to shine—no toothbrush required.
If you’ve ever spent a Saturday battling grout lines, you’ll know: this is a game changer.
Easy to Clean, Easy to Love
A clean bathroom shouldn’t feel like a full-time job. That’s why our wall panels are made from non-porous, multi-layered composite and antimicrobial acrylic materials designed to make life easier and keep your space looking fresh.
So, what does non-porous actually mean for you? It means:
- Water beads up and rolls off. No soaking in. No sneaky moisture buildup.
- Nothing sticks—not soap scum, not grime, not gunk. Wipe it down and move on with your day.
- No special sprays or scrubbing required. A soft cloth and mild cleaner are all you need.
Less mold, mildew, and bacteria. Antimicrobial surfaces help keep your bathroom cleaner and healthier with way less effort. - No need to dry your walls after a shower. Unlike real stone, our materials don’t absorb water or show streaks.
In other words, your bathroom stays cleaner longer, and your cleaning routine just got a lot shorter.
Spend less time scrubbing and more time enjoying a space that always looks guest-ready. You deserve that.

Looks Like Stone, Without the Upkeep
Stone showers are stunning—but if you’ve ever owned one, you know they come with a long list of chores. That’s why we designed our panels to look just like real marble, granite, or travertine—without acting like them.
We start with high-resolution images of actual stone slabs, then seal them under a tough, scratch-resistant outer layer. The result? A realistic stone look that’s easy to live with.
Here’s what you don’t have to deal with:
- No sealing. Real stone needs regular sealing to keep water and stains out. Ours doesn’t.
- No drying after every shower. Our panels don’t soak in moisture, so you don’t have to grab a towel every time someone hops out.
- No stains, cracks, or discoloration. The finish stays beautiful, even with daily use.
And here’s what you do get:
- Elegant, stone-like style in over 20 color options. Choose from cool contemporary tones to warm traditional looks.
- A smooth, polished finish that holds up over time. No flaking, fading, or weathering like natural stone.
A bathroom that feels high-end—with way less effort. It’s the best of both worlds: all the luxury, none of the high-maintenance.
With Five Star Bath Solutions, you can have the bathroom of your dreams… without turning into a stone care expert.

No Mold. No Mildew. No Worries.
Bathrooms are humid, steamy, and full of moisture—basically a dream home for mold and mildew. But not with our wall panels.
Our bath and shower systems are made from non-porous, antimicrobial materials, which means there’s no place for bacteria, mold, or mildew to hide. Unlike tile and grout, which soak in water and trap dirt, our surfaces stay clean and dry with very little effort.
Here’s what makes our materials a healthier choice for your home:
- Non-porous surface. Water can’t seep in, so mold and mildew can’t take hold.
- Antimicrobial protection. Helps stop bacteria growth before it starts—perfect for busy households.
- No grout, no cracks, no hidden moisture. Just smooth, sealed panels from corner to corner.
- Cleaner air and surfaces. Reducing mold and bacteria helps improve the overall environment in your bathroom.
This is especially important if:
- You're remodeling to age in place and want slip-resistant, sanitary surfaces.
- You have young kids or elderly family members who are more sensitive to allergens.
- You’re just tired of battling bathroom buildup every week.
With Five Star Bath Solutions, you can breathe easy—literally. Your shower stays fresh, your walls stay dry, and you stay worry-free.
A Smarter Investment for the Long Run
Your bathroom should be beautiful now and years from now. That’s why choosing low-maintenance, long-lasting materials is one of the smartest remodeling decisions you can make.
At Five Star Bath Solutions, our wall panels and shower systems are built to last for the lifetime of your home. That means:
- No grout to re-seal or replace. Say goodbye to routine maintenance and costly touch-ups.
- No cracked tiles to fix. Our durable panels resist chipping, warping, and cracking over time.
- No pricey cleaners or special products needed. A mild cleaner and soft cloth are all it takes to keep things looking like new.
- No need to remodel again in 10–15 years. Many traditional materials break down or go out of style—ours stay strong and timeless.
Over time, tile and grout require a surprising amount of attention and money:
- Sealing.
- Regrouting.
- Repairs.
- Deep cleaning.
- Full replacement every 10 to 15 years.
Our solid wall systems eliminate those expenses—saving you thousands of dollars and countless weekends of upkeep.
When you invest in Five Star materials, you’re not just upgrading your bathroom. You’re choosing peace of mind, lasting quality, and real value that keeps paying off long after installation day.
