"The removal of my existing tub/shower combo and replacement was beyond expectations. From our initial meeting with Jerry Wiggins to the final product I could not ask for a better experience! They were professional, efficient, friendly and my bathroom was as clean after the install as it was when they started. Not only was the service SUPERB, the renovation cost was $2000 LESS THAN the least expensive of competitors bids!!! I will use them again for another bathroom project in a few months."

Tub Shower Conversion questions, answered by experts

Doorless showers feature strategically placed showerheads, drains, and sloped floors to contain water. The sloped floor allows water to seamlessly flow toward the drain and prevents pooling. Proper design and waterproofing ensure that water is directed into the drain, minimizing the risk of it spreading out into the rest of the bathroom.

Generally, shower walls should not be installed over drywall because of the moisture issues this can cause. If you’re using a direct-to-stud shower kit, you need to remove the drywall before you can do the installation.

However, if you’re using a glue-up shower kit or stall, you can glue the shower walls directly to drywall. Be sure to install a moisture-resistant drywall or waterproof cement board.

Shower arms come in a standard size with ½-inch NPT, but designs vary. The height of the water supply pipe and the showerhead height you want affect the type of shower arm you should choose. For example, a water outlet that’s located close to the ceiling would be suitable for a standard shower arm (small extension with a slight downward angle) or a straight arm model. Outlets situated lower in the shower allow for gooseneck shower arms, which can raise the showerhead's height.

Yes, a toilet, sink, and shower can share the same vent. This is a common installation method that can simplify plumbing and save space. However, there are important considerations. The vent and associated plumbing must be large enough to handle the demands of all fixtures without compromising the vent's effectiveness. Additionally, the toilet should always be located downstream of all other fixtures. Because requirements can vary and space might be limited, it is essential to check your local building and plumbing codes and consult with a qualified plumber to ensure the installation is done correctly.

When choosing between fiberglass and acrylic for a shower, your budget and preferences are key factors. Fiberglass is generally more affordable and lightweight, but it may be more prone to scratches, dullness, and cracking over time. Acrylic is more durable, flexible, and scratch-resistant, and it tends to retain its shine longer. While slightly more expensive, acrylic is available in a wider variety of shapes, sizes, colors, and finishes. It is also generally easier to repair if damaged. For shower bases specifically, acrylic is less likely to crack than fiberglass, but as long as either type is installed and supported correctly, it should not chip or crack prematurely.
