Shower Replacement in Melbourne: How It Works for Your Home
What a new shower takes in Melbourne, FL, from the first visit to the day you step in.
Maybe the old shower has a cracked base, grout that never looks clean, or a ledge that feels harder to step over each year. If you live in West Melbourne, near the Eau Gallie Arts District or anywhere else in Melbourne, you likely want a shower that is easier to clean and easier to use. And you would rather not tear up the whole bathroom to get it.
Shower replacement means only the wet area changes. The old base and walls come out, and a Jacuzzi® shower system goes in its place: a low basin, a stone or tile look surround, and walls built for easy upkeep. The floor, the vanity and the rest of the room stay as they are. Three showers replaced in Melbourne show the range. One has Platinum walls in a herringbone pattern, Chrome fixtures and an open entry with no door. Another pairs Midnight Storm walls in a random stone pattern with Matte Black fixtures and a teak seat. In each one, the homeowner chose the walls, the base and the fixture finish.
Melbourne is a city of two downtowns, Historic Downtown Melbourne and the Eau Gallie Arts District, with the Indian River Lagoon along its edge. It has a humid subtropical climate. None of that changes how a shower is built, so the real question is the shape of your own. Look for soft spots in the base, dark lines in the grout and caulk that keeps peeling. Notice if the step in feels high. Grout-free walls with antimicrobial surfaces help reduce mold and mildew buildup, and a low entry or a seat can make each shower easier.
Every shower is quoted in your home, because no two bathrooms are the same. The price depends on the size and layout of your shower space, the base, the wall style and finish, and the fixture finish. Extras like a seat, shelves or grab bars add to it. The free quote covers the product and the installation. Financing is offered too, if spreading out the cost would help. The questions below take cost further.
First, you call and set a time. A designer from Love Your Bath comes to your home, listens to what you want, and builds a custom plan with options and a free quote. All homeowners are asked to be there for that visit. Bonnielynn G. wrote that the representative at the consultation "answered every question we had." Next, you pick the colors, the finishes and any safety features, like grab bars or a seat. On install day, the crew takes out the old shower and puts in the new one.
Once it is done, you have a shower that looks new and wipes clean. The rest of the bathroom is just as you left it. Stepping in feels easier, and if you chose a seat or grab bars, they are there each morning. Scrubbing grout is no longer on your list.

"Had a Garden Tub to Walk in shower conversion . Tristan was the installer. He did this 2 day job by himself . I was very impressed with his skills during demo and install in a 3rd floor condo incased in concrete. He had to break out the jack hammer to complete the drain. Once completed the Shower is awesome. Thank you Paul G"

Jacuzzi is a long time respected name that is above and beyond our expectations. We called and spoke to other bath remodelers and they simply were all about the sale and not the customers. My husband and I highly recommend Jacuzzi Bath Remodelers."
