Acrylic shower replacement, installed in one day
The shower you have now started life beautiful. Then the grout went, the caulk did its thing, the tile cracked behind the soap shelf, and a bathroom that should feel like a small spa starts feeling like a project you keep avoiding.
Just Bath replaces existing showers with custom-fit acrylic systems in a single install day. We use your existing footprint and plumbing, which is what makes a true one-day bathroom remodel possible: in by morning, showering by night.
Why acrylic, not tile
Acrylic systems sound less impressive than custom tile until you actually live with one for a few years. They are:
- Non-porous. Nothing to grout, nothing to re-seal, nothing to scrub.
- Hygienic. Mold and mildew need texture to grip; acrylic has none.
- Durable. Our systems carry a lifetime warranty because they last that long.
- Quiet to clean. Most homeowners wipe theirs down with mild soap and a microfiber cloth. That is it.
If you love the look of marble or stone, you can have it: we install printed acrylic finishes in Veincut Gray, White Pearl, Alaskan Ivory, and three other designer colors that read like real stone from across the room.
What we usually find behind an old shower
A tile shower hides its problems until you open it up. By the time the grout is failing, water has often been wicking into the wall for years. When we remove a worn shower we check the pan and the substrate before anything new goes in:
- If the base and the wall behind it are sound, the new acrylic base and walls seat right over them and you stay on the one-day timeline.
- If we find a cracked pan, soft drywall, or rotted subfloor, we stop, show you exactly what is there, and give you an honest price to remediate before we build. Never a surprise on the invoice.
Fixing the hidden damage is the part the big-box installers skip. It is also the part that decides whether your new shower lasts.
Build the shower around how you actually shower
Because we are rebuilding the whole wet area, a new shower is the moment to add the features a surround or a quick swap cannot:
- Recessed niches sized to your bottles, instead of a rusting wire caddy
- A built-in bench or fold-down seat for shaving legs or a safer seated shower
- A low-threshold, near-curbless entry for an easier and safer step-in
- Grab bars set into the studs at the height your household needs, rated for real weight
- Your choice of fixed, rainfall, or hand-held shower heads, plus an optional frameless shower door
What the install actually looks like
- We assess the existing shower base. If the substrate is sound, the new base seats directly over it. If not (cracked pan, rotted subfloor), we tell you up front and walk you through the cost to remediate before installing.
- New acrylic walls go up, custom-cut to your stud bays.
- Plumbing reconfiguration if you are changing fixtures.
- Final silicone work, trim, and a full walk-through.
By the time we leave, you can shower in it.
