Central Valley shower remodeling

Custom Shower Remodeling — Waterproofed Correctly. Tiled to Hold.

Most shower failures are waterproofing failures, not tile failures. We assess the substrate, build the waterproofing system correctly, and install finishes on a foundation that holds.

CA Lic. #1066959

Shower options

Shower systems built for the room you have.

$18,000–$35,000+

Custom Tile Shower

A full custom shower built from the framing out, with a continuous waterproofing system, correctly sloped floor, and tile selected for the space. We plan the drain, niche, transitions, and fixture locations before the finish work starts.

$16,000–$30,000+

Walk-In Shower

A practical walk-in shower can remove the tub barrier without reducing the quality of the build behind the wall. We address entry height, drainage, wall reinforcement, and safe fixture placement as part of the system.

$8,500–$18,000+

Shower Enclosure Replacement

When the substrate and waterproofing are sound, an enclosure replacement can update the shower without a full rebuild. We inspect the existing conditions first and recommend replacement only when the system supports it.

The waterproofing problem

Cheap showers fail where you cannot see it.

Tile and grout are finish surfaces. They are not the waterproofing layer. A shower holds only when the substrate, membrane, drain connection, corners, and penetrations are installed as one tested system.

What goes wrong

  • Wrong membrane for the substrate or drain assembly
  • Skipped cure time before flood testing or tile installation
  • Deteriorated drywall or unstable backer behind the tile

What we do instead

  • Specify compatible substrate, membrane, drain, and sealants
  • Allow required cure time and test the waterproofing system
  • Replace failed material and reinforce the shower assembly before tile

What you get

  • A shower system built to manage water before it reaches framing
  • Correct floor slope and sealed transitions at every penetration
  • Tile installed on a stable, waterproof foundation

Materials and finishes

Finish selections that work with the shower system.

We coordinate finish choices with layout, maintenance needs, and the waterproofing details already planned.

Tile options

Porcelain, ceramic, natural stone, large-format wall tile, mosaics, and slip-conscious floor tile selected for the specific shower surface.

Built-in details

Recessed niches, corner benches, floating benches, and properly blocked grab bars planned before waterproofing and tile layout.

Glass and enclosure

Frameless glass panels, hinged doors, sliding doors, and enclosure configurations sized for access, splash control, and daily use.

Fixtures

Pressure-balanced valves, thermostatic controls, rain heads, hand showers, body sprays, and drain finishes coordinated with the plumbing scope.

Our process

Four phases. No skipped substrate work.

  1. 01

    Demo & Assessment

    We remove failed materials, inspect framing and plumbing, document conditions, and establish the correct scope before rebuilding.

  2. 02

    Waterproofing & Substrate

    We prepare the shower base and walls, install compatible waterproofing, seal transitions, and verify the system before tile.

  3. 03

    Tile & Fixtures

    We set tile, grout, install fixtures, and coordinate glass only after the waterproofed assembly is ready for finish work.

  4. 04

    Final Inspection

    We check drainage, fit, operation, sealant work, and finished details with you before project closeout.
