Wisconsin, centered around Madison, experiences cold, snowy winters and warm, humid summers. This climate necessitates durable, moisture-resistant materials for walk-in showers. Our services are available throughout the state.
In Wisconsin, the significant seasonal temperature shifts and summer humidity demand robust materials and expert installation for walk-in showers. We focus on creating watertight environments to prevent issues like mold and mildew, common challenges in this climate. The process begins with a thorough inspection of your existing bathroom's structure and plumbing.
Our installation procedure starts with the careful removal of your current tub or shower unit. We then prepare the subfloor and walls, ensuring a solid, stable base for the new shower. If necessary, we modify or install new plumbing lines to align with code and your design. The new walk-in shower base and enclosure are then precisely fitted and secured. The final stages involve sealing all joints and installing your chosen fixtures. The complexity of plumbing work and the selection of materials will influence the project's overall duration and investment. We offer a free phone consultation to clarify these details for your Madison home.
