Floyd Heaton from Five Star Bath Solutions presented four package tiers and recommended the Smart Choice system as the best value. Smart Choice uses ¼″-thick virgin PVC composite panels with antimicrobial, scratch-resistant surfaces and seamless quad-lock corners. Panels extend up to the ceiling, eliminating grout lines and maintenance. White-and-gray marble-effect panels were selected; polished chrome hardware complements existing bathroom accents. Five Star installers are factory-trained, drug-tested, and employed directly by the franchise, which holds an A+ BBB rating and has served homeowners for 29 years relying on referrals rather than advertising.
Installation, explained by Floyd, was completed in two days. Crews laid protective paper throughout the home, demolished down to the studs, inspected and repaired framing at no charge, upgraded all plumbing to PEX, and installed the thermal-insulated, slip-resistant shower base. After the Shower Shield backer board was sealed, composite panels were hung, then accessories—including bench, shelves, grab bar, slide bar, and enclosure—were installed. All joints were caulked with antimicrobial sealant rated for 50 years. A project manager conducted a pre-install measure to confirm component placement using a 3D design tool.
Five Star Bath Solutions includes a lifetime-plus warranty covering product, parts, labor, and installation with full transferability to future owners. Financing requires no money down, with options for no-interest payments or cash savings. Current promotion reduced the Smart Choice MSRP from $20,062 to $16,050—a $1000 installation discount—with the quote valid for 30 days.
