What we build

Shower Remodeling Services

Every shower remodel starts with the structure behind the tile: slope, pan, drain and waterproofing. Then we build the look you want on top of it.

Walk-In Shower Remodel

Replace a dated stall or tub with a roomy walk-in shower, with or without a curb, sized to your bathroom.

Glass Enclosures

Frameless, semi-frameless and framed glass in clear or textured finishes, in black, brushed nickel or chrome hardware.

Shower Pan and Drain Installation

Correctly sloped pans and linear or center drains that move water out and stay leak-free.

Shower Conversions

Turn a tub, a tub-shower combo or an old corner unit into the shower you actually use.

Full Shower Replacement

Down to the studs when the walls, pan or valve are failing. New surround, new pan, new fixtures.

Shower Doors Installation

Sliding, hinged and pivot doors, plus enclosure installation for offset, two-piece and custom layouts.

Shower Tile

Large-format porcelain, zellige-look and stacked tile, mosaic floors and built-in niches.

Waterproofing Systems

Bonded membrane systems behind the tile. This is the layer that stops mold and rot in Florida humidity.

Shower Benches

Built-in or fold-down seating that adds comfort now and safety later, with grab bars where you need them.

Multiple Shower Heads

Rain heads, body sprays and dual controls, planned with the plumbing so pressure stays even.

Shower Stall Remodeling

Small shower or prefabricated insert? We upgrade compact stalls without giving up floor space.

Hand-Held Showers

Slide-bar hand showers for rinsing, cleaning the shower and bathing with limited mobility.

Custom Shower Remodeling

Spa-style layouts with steam-ready framing, lit niches and stone or tile accent walls.

Fixture and Valve Upgrades

New valves, trim and repairs to worn water fixtures in matte black, brushed gold or nickel.

Tubs

Bathtub Remodeling Services

Keep the tub, change the tub, or give it up for a shower. We help you choose based on how you bathe today and how you will in ten years.

Tub to Shower Conversion

Our most requested remodel. The tub comes out and a walk-in shower with a proper pan and waterproofing goes in, often in a week or less.

Old Bathtub Remodeling

New wall surrounds, tub fronts, fixtures and finishes on an existing tub, plus refinishing or reglazing when the tub itself is sound.

Freestanding Bathtub Renovation

Swap a built-in tub for a freestanding soaking tub, with a floor-mounted or wall-mounted filler and new flooring around it.

Walk-In Tub Remodel

Low-step walk-in tubs and walk-in tub retrofits for safe, seated bathing at home.

Drop-In Tub

New drop-in tubs with tiled decks and surrounds, or a refresh of the tub you already have.

Hot Tub Renovations

Surround, deck and finish updates for indoor and lanai hot tubs. Tell us what you have and we will scope it.

Cost

What is the cost of a tub to shower conversion?

Most conversions cost between $8,000 and $18,000. The price depends on the new pan, the tile, the glass and whether the drain has to move. Keeping the plumbing where it is keeps the cost at the lower end.

Quick answer

How long does a shower remodel take?

Most shower remodels in Cape Coral take about 5 to 10 working days. A tub-to-shower conversion with standard tile often lands at the short end. A custom curbless shower with large-format tile, a new drain location and a frameless glass enclosure takes longer, because the glass is measured and cut only after the tile is done. Permits and material lead times add to the schedule, and we confirm the timeline in your written estimate.

Timelines are typical ranges. Your exact schedule depends on scope, materials and permitting.

Investment

What is the average cost of a walk-in shower?

Most Cape Coral homeowners spend between $6,000 and $14,000 on a standard walk-in shower, and $15,000 to $30,000 or more for a custom curbless shower with frameless glass, depending on size, tile and glass. Here are typical ranges for common shower and tub projects.

ProjectTypical range
Shower refresh (fixtures, refinishing, door)$2,500 – $6,000
Standard walk-in shower remodel$6,000 – $14,000
Tub to shower conversion$8,000 – $18,000
Custom curbless shower, frameless glass$15,000 – $30,000+

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions About Shower Remodeling

How much should it cost to remodel a shower?

Price follows four things: the size of the shower, how much of the structure must be rebuilt, the tile and glass you choose, and whether plumbing moves. Keeping the drain and valve where they are is the biggest saver.

What is the most affordable way to remodel a shower?

Keep the layout, replace the surface. A new surround, valve and trim, and a new door give a much newer look for less than a full rebuild. Prefabricated inserts are the lowest-cost option, and a custom tile shower lasts longer and looks better.

What type of waterproofing systems do you use?

We use a bonded waterproofing membrane system on the pan, curb and walls, either a sheet membrane or a liquid-applied membrane. The system is sealed at every corner, niche and drain, and flood-tested where the job calls for it, before any tile goes up.

What materials are mold resistant for the shower?

Porcelain tile, glass tile and solid-surface panels do not absorb water. Behind them, cement board or foam board with a waterproof membrane keeps moisture out of the wall. Epoxy or high-performance grout and a well-vented bathroom fan add more protection in Florida humidity.

Are one-day shower remodels worth it?

Prefabricated insert and surround systems can be installed quickly, which suits a tight budget or a rental. A custom tile shower takes longer, but it lasts longer and can be designed to suit you. We will tell you which fits your home.

Do I need a permit for a shower or tub remodel?

Many projects that move plumbing or electrical need one. We handle the permit process for you.

Can I stay in my home during the remodel?

Yes, if you have another bathroom. We keep the work area contained and clean up every day.

Care

What can I use to clean my shower walls?

For tile, a pH-neutral cleaner and a soft brush are safest. Avoid vinegar and acid cleaners on natural stone and colored grout. For glass, a squeegee after each shower prevents spots. A weekly wipe with a mild cleaner stops soap scum and mold before they set.
