Ostin Tuma from Five Star Bath Solutions presented the company’s waterproofing system designed for lasting performance and minimal upkeep. The proposal included multi-layered composite wall panels with a smooth, grout-free finish that resists mold and staining. These panels overlap the base flange to eliminate the need for re-siliconing. Ostin explained that their proprietary waterproof backer board is paired with quad-lock corner seals and a permanently flexible expansion sealant. The fixture package included a Delta commercial-grade dual-valve setup for reliable pressure and temperature balance. Finishes were shown in standard chrome with upgrade options available.
The remodel plan called for full removal of the current fiberglass unit down to the studs, with structural inspection and repairs performed as needed. New plumbing was installed from the trap upward, followed by the setting of a low-threshold shower base. The wall panels extended to the ceiling for a seamless appearance, with integrated corner shelves and a built-in teak bench mounted opposite the handheld wand and valve system. A frameless sliding glass door was added to complete the enclosure. The job was completed in one day, with full cleanup, debris disposal, and permitting handled by the company.
Five Star Bath Solutions backs the remodel with a lifetime warranty covering all labor, materials, and plumbing components. This warranty includes service visits, parts replacement, and trip fees at no cost to the homeowner. The warranty is fully transferable and remains with the property, adding long-term value. Although the project exceeded the customer’s current budget, the professional walk-through, clarity of the offer, and product education left a strong impression for future consideration.
