A shower remodel increases home value and modernizes the space. Bathroom renovations typically provide a 55% to 70% return on investment (ROI). A tub or shower remodel is among the top three bathroom remodeling projects with the highest ROI.
Who installs showers?
Bathroom remodeling contractors install showers with the help of local plumbers. Depending on the shower remodel project, a specialized tile installer, electrician, or glazier may also be required.
Can I install a shower myself?
Installing a new shower is a complex project that requires plumbing experience and specialized tools. Replacing an existing shower with a prefab stall may be manageable as a DIY project, but new shower installation needs a professional. Incorrect installation may result in water leaks and damage.
How long does it take to replace a shower?
Installing a new shower takes three to seven days on average. Old shower demolition and surface prep adds 1 to 2 days.
How to find local shower installation companies?
Start by searching our list of pros, then compare reviews and costs. Next:
Get at least three estimates to compare.
Look for licensed contractors with experience installing showers.
Request references and ask to see a portfolio of their previous work.
Browse their reviews on HomeGuide and Google.
For tile showers, look for licensed CTEF Certified Tile Installers (CTI) who are members of the National Tile Contractors Association.
Select companies that are insured, bonded, and have been in business for more than five years.
Avoid selecting the lowest quote as quality may suffer.
Get a detailed estimate, contract, and warranty in writing before the work begins.
Never pay in full before the project starts. Follow a payment plan instead for work completed.
What questions to ask shower installers?
When hiring a shower installer, ask them the following questions:
What kind of shower do you recommend for my bathroom and why?
How long have you been in business?
How many showers have you installed?
Can you provide references and a portfolio showing your work?
Are you licensed, bonded, and insured?
What steps will you take to waterproof the shower?
Does the estimate include the shower pan, fixtures, doors, and all other required materials?
Does the estimate include demolition, removing the old tub or shower, and hauling away the debris?
What additional costs should I expect?
What permits do I need, and will you obtain them?
How long will the installation take?
How many people will be working on the project?
How soon will I be able to use the shower after the installation?
Is a warranty included, and if so, what does it cover?
