Professional Walk-In Showers Installation for Suntree Homes
Suntree's real estate market is dominated by single-family homes built between 1985 and 2010, and many of these properties still feature cramped, tub-only bathrooms that don't reflect today's lifestyle. Our walk-in shower installations replace outdated fiberglass units with custom-built enclosures featuring 12x24 inch porcelain tiles, Schluter edge trim systems, and Kohler or Moen fixtures rated for Florida's high humidity. Suntree's HOA communities-particularly those near the Suntree Community Park area and throughout the Suntree Village subdivisions-require pre-approval for exterior work, and we navigate these restrictions seamlessly. Most Suntree bathrooms sit on concrete slabs with aging plumbing; we assess subfloor conditions, install Kerdi waterproofing membranes, and ensure ADA-compliant slopes (1/4 inch per foot minimum) before any tile goes down.
Our walk-in shower installation process in Suntree typically spans 8-12 business days from demolition to final grouting, depending on whether we're replacing an existing tub or converting a corner of your master bath. We remove the old fixture, assess the substrate (most Suntree homes need 1/2-inch cement board replacement), frame new curbs or use curbless bases with linear drains, apply Schluter Kerdi or equivalent waterproofing to all walls up to 6 feet, then install your choice of porcelain, natural stone, or glass tile. Suntree's water table and seasonal rainfall patterns mean improper waterproofing causes mold within 18 months-we don't cut corners here. Your shower includes a solid glass frameless enclosure (3/8-inch tempered), a recessed niche for toiletries, anti-scald mixing valves, and your choice of rain-head or traditional showerheads. We pull all Brevard County permits (approximately $150-200 filing fee) and schedule mandatory rough-in and final inspections before you pay the balance.
