In Sturgis, South Dakota, homeowners Terri and Ron were dealing with a persistent and damaging household issue. They reached out to our team because their existing fiberglass shower unit had begun to leak.
The Challenge: A Failing Unit
The original shower was a standard, dated fiberglass stall that was no longer watertight. Beyond the functional failure of the leak, the space lacked modern accessibility and storage, relying on a simple tension rod and curtain that didn’t provide the high-end look the homeowners desired.
The Solution: Custom Design & Professional Install
Our team worked closely with Terri and Ron to design a solution that addressed both the structural leaks and the aesthetic limitations of the old space. We replaced the failing fiberglass with a gorgeous new shower system designed for durability and style.
Key Upgrades & Features:
- Modern Wall Surrounds: High-quality panels featuring a timeless white subway tile pattern.
- Barn-Door Style Glass: Sleek, sliding glass doors with exposed rollers for a contemporary, open feel.
- Enhanced Safety: A strategically placed, sturdy grab bar to provide extra stability.
- Built-in Comfort: A spacious, integrated bench for a more relaxing and accessible showering experience.
- Smart Storage: Recessed corner shelving units to keep bath products organized and off the floor.
The Results
The project was a complete success. By moving away from the problematic fiberglass and installing a modern, watertight system, we were able to provide a long-term solution. At the end of the installation, Terri and Ron were thrilled with the finished product.
