Customer, Elena, requested a full tub and shower area update to eliminate mold-prone ceramic tile and switch to a cleaner, easier-to-maintain alternative. They initially hoped to keep ceramic tile but wanted to avoid further moisture damage and mold buildup. A shower head with a wand feature was also preferred for daily flexibility.

The finished remodel retains a standard tub layout but replaces the tile walls with marble-style, grout-free composite panels. The wall system wraps around a central window and includes two corner shelves for product storage. A handheld shower head with wand capability is mounted on a vertical bar, and the curved shower curtain rod maximizes space within the enclosure. The existing vanity and adjacent partial tile wall were preserved and integrated into the new surround. No built-in bench or glass doors were installed as part of this update.
Ted, the Five Star Bath Solutions representative, explained that tile was not used due to long-term moisture risks. Instead, the new installation includes a dry lock board behind the wall panels, which acts as a foam and concrete barrier against mold. The process involved full demolition down to the studs, including inspection and remediation of any water damage. New plumbing lines and a diverter were added to ensure reliable drainage and temperature control.
The waterproof composite walls use a six-layer system resistant to mold, scratches, and bacteria buildup. Wall panels were trimmed and sealed cleanly around the window and fixtures. The new Delta handheld shower head provides temperature precision and increased reach. Safety features such as grab bars or seating were not visibly added in the final install.
Installation was completed within the typical one to two day timeframe. Licensed and bonded W2 employees handled all demo, remediation, and product fitting under the supervision of the local production team. The remodel was scheduled within the three to six week window following measurements.
Pricing for the remodel fell within the average shower project range of $14,000 to $20,000. Promotional savings included 77% off installation and a corporate upgrade discount for early commitment. A no-surprise guarantee protected the customer from cost increases during demolition. All products and labor are covered under a fully transferable lifetime warranty.
