Sheila's Two-Bathroom Remodel

The starting point

Sheila had two bathrooms that needed different things. The guest bathroom still had a tub that no longer fit how the space was used, and the master shower needed more than a cosmetic update — it needed to be redone correctly, starting beneath the surface.

The scope

In the guest bathroom, we converted the tub to a standing shower with a framed glass enclosure — a cleaner, more usable space and a more practical layout for a guest bath.

The master shower is where the important work was. We rebuilt it with new waterproofing first, then new shower tile and a frameless glass enclosure on top. Waterproofing is the part no one sees and the part that determines whether a shower lasts or fails. Redoing it properly is the difference between a remodel that looks good for a year and one that holds up for the long run.

The outcome

Sheila came away with two bathrooms that each work the way they should — a more functional guest bath and a master shower that is sound where it counts, not just attractive on the surface.
