About Shower Remodeling in Irvine

Original Irvine showers are usually fiberglass inserts or tile over drywall with a mortar pan. Both reach the end of their life after 25–30 years, and both hide leaks until the damage shows up on a ceiling or baseboard.

Our shower remodels include a new pan, a full waterproofing membrane, a pressure-balance or thermostatic valve, a recessed niche and blocking for glass and grab bars. Popular upgrades include a bench, a handheld on a slide bar and a linear drain.

Irvine water is hard, so we recommend large-format tile with fewer grout lines and a protective coating on glass to keep cleanup easy.

Why the Pan and Waterproofing Matter Most

Tile and grout are not waterproof. What keeps water out of your walls is the pan and the membrane behind the tile, so that's where we never cut corners.

Every shower we build is flood-tested before tile goes on, and the membrane runs continuously from the pan up the walls.

Waterproofing membranes need correct overlaps and corners
Valves must be set at the right depth for the trim
