The Renovation Process

This is the overall process for a 3×5 foot typical custom shower installation, including a bathtub to shower conversion. If any of the steps below are missed, the potential of your shower leaking in the future are great. Depending on the complexity of the bathroom and anything unforeseen, bathrooms usually take 7-10 days to complete. This example is noted as 5 days, if everything goes perfect.

Day 01

We arrive at designated time at your home to begin work. This is what you can expect:

Technicians will arrive and prep the work area. Customer participation in this is always welcome, for input for anything you wish to be protected. We will provide the tape, paper and tarps to protect the work site.
All drain and shower or bath escutcheons will be removed. Any other plumbing or electrical needs will also be addressed with you.
Cut out existing drywall and tile and remove outside. We can remove cast iron tubs as well. Clean up and analyze where we are at, and secure supplies and materials that are necessary to create the foundation of your new bath. Jan will help you select your tile if you need it!
Customer needs to keep in mind, who needs to take away the trash? We can remove it for a nominal fee. Or, you can save money to make arrangements to haul it away with your city.
By the end of day 1, you need to lock down your tile design.

Day 02

Curbs to be built and mechanically fastened to the slab. With pressure-treated 2×4 structures, niches to be built, walls to be built, structure to be set, drain connections to be designed, and prepare for installation. Install liner, install Hardie Backer with Hardie Backer screws, pour sand topping concrete mix for mud pan. Apply Red Guard waterproofing sealant. Correctly slope for proper drainage. OR, set your new bathtub into the structure and connect the drain. If all goes well, we move to the next step to begin tiling by Day 3.

Day 03

Custom cut and install wall tile, install tile to top and around all sides of curb. Install tile in niches.

Day 04

If all goes well, install tile in mud pan. Design top of curb and knee/pony wall with marble.

Day 05

Finish any other tile installation as necessary. Install marble in niches, curb and knee/pony wall. Grout walls and install grout caulk in corners as final touches. Keep in mind, 24 hours is recommended for tile to dry before grouting. And, 24 hours is also recommended for grout to dry before use. Install escutcheons for shower, faucet system, and drain.

Day 06

Customer calls us and tells us how happy they are!

Please note that we do not work on Sundays. We recommend that you add 20% more tile for waste and extra tile to keep on-hand for the future.
