Alaina Dettling, the Five Star Bath Solutions representative, introduced the six-layer composite wall panel system designed for waterproofing and antimicrobial performance. Calacatta-style wall panels were selected to provide a brighter, more modern appearance while preserving budget goals. The package included upgraded 100% silicone sealant and quad-lock corner protection to ensure moisture containment and long-term durability. A chrome universal handheld showerhead was installed for flexibility and ease of use. A 36-inch safety bar and two corner shelves completed the functional layout, allowing shared access and safer movement.
Installation included full demolition of the old tiled enclosure down to the studs, including the raised threshold and bench area. A new 30x60 solid-core shower pan with integrated slip resistance was installed. Wall panels extended to the ceiling, and a full-height shower curtain was hung from a mounted rod. Chrome grab bars were placed horizontally and vertically to meet safety requirements, and a matching chrome handheld system was wall-mounted. A solid bench was built into the new enclosure. Existing plumbing was upgraded using Delta components, and all debris was removed using trailers without the need for a dumpster.
Five Star Bath Solutions provided a lifetime warranty covering all labor, wall materials, plumbing, and silicone joints. The warranty is fully transferable with no trip or inspection fees, and work is performed exclusively by in-house technicians. Base cost of the project was $13,646. Applied discounts included a $1,000 website coupon and a $500 review credit, reducing the total to $12,146. Reusing the curtain rod allowed an additional $100 credit. Optional decorative trim was discussed but not selected. A pre-construction meeting was scheduled for post-contract confirmation, with installation planned within six to eight weeks and expected to complete in one to two days.
