Beautiful, Modern & Safe Showers In 3 Easy Steps!
We Remove Your Existing Shower & Fix Any Structural Damage
The first stage of your bathroom remodel involves deconstructing your original tub or shower. We'll get down to the bones of your existing shower system, checking for signs of structural damage to ensure we have a solid foundation on which to build your new shower.
Poorly installed and low-quality materials such as fiberglass can leak and degrade over time, which opens up your pipes and flooring to water damage. Our team is skilled in safe fiberglass removal techniques, meaning you won't have to worry about additional damage to your bathroom while we work.
Once we've completely removed the old system and repaired any damage to the underlying structure and pipes, we'll get to work on building your new bathing facility.
Our Technicians Will Install A 100% Waterproof Shower System
The next phase of our custom shower process is the installation. We'll start by installing a 100% waterproof and leak-proof shower system you'll be able to use and enjoy for years to come.
Next, we'll lay the tile you chose during the design phase. We can arrange the tiles precisely to your specification, creating eye-catching patterns or a pristine and uniform layout. We use the highest-quality grout to ensure your beautiful new tiles stay in place and remain watertight.
Our installation time varies depending on the complexity and scope of the project. It typically takes anywhere from three to five days to lay the tile; however, a large-scale renovation involving multiple types of tile and several bathroom fixtures could take longer.
Glass walls and doors for your shower are also custom-designed and cut; these panels can only be installed after the tile is finished. Expect an additional wait time of three days to three weeks for your shower's glass elements to be installed. We promise your patience will pay off!
All You Have To Do Now Is Enjoy Your New Shower!
What's the last stage of your custom shower remodel? It's you enjoying your shower!
Once the installation is complete and we've thoroughly cleaned up the workspace, you'll be left to bask in the glory of your brand-new bathing sanctuary for as long as you remain in your house. All of our complete shower renovations come with a lifetime warranty for your peace of mind.
A new tile shower does more than make bathing more enjoyable; it can even raise your home's property value and make it more enticing to buyers. We stand by our work and our custom shower process, but if you ever have questions about your new setup, we'll be happy to assist you or send out an expert to inspect your bathroom.
Frequently Asked Questions
Please Contact Us If You Cannot Find An Answer To Your Question.
Installs usually take between 4-5 business days.
Typically, if you are replacing an existing enclosure a permit is not necessary, but we recommend you check with your local permitting office as each town and county may have their own unique guidelines.
Short Term- Using a bleach or vinegar cleaner, but that will only hold off mold for a few months. The shower pan is holding water and was not installed correctly. We will need to do an inspection of the shower and give you the best options to move forward.
Persistent mold is often a result of an improperly installed shower pan or improperly sealed tiles. While there's always a risk of mold in a warm, wet area like a shower, a high-quality, 100% waterproof installation will keep it from settling in for good.
We know you don't have unlimited money to spend on a shower remodel, which is why we offer options at many different price points.
No matter your budget, we'll offer you a design process that includes transparent pricing and no surprises. Our in-home consultations are always free, and our lifetime warranty means this is the last time you'll ever have to redo the shower.
ADA-accessible showers follow ADA regulations with 6-inch-high entries, easy and secure seating options, approved grab bars, and hand-held wands.
Ensuring your shower meets the full range of regulations may be important if you're renovating a bathroom for a full or part-time rental property. Our team is familiar with ADA-accessibility requirements and knows how to construct a shower that meets them.
You or your family may not require a shower that meets all ADA regulations. In that case, we'll work with you to build a shower that has everything you need and nothing you don't.
Losing access to your home bathroom, even for just a few days, can be a little stressful! Prior to the shower installation, we'll give you our firm start date and estimate of how long it will take.
On the day of your bathroom renovation, you'll need to take your toiletries and linens out of the bathroom. We'll lay down plastic sheeting to keep the area clean and use fans to blow out any dust.
