The Challenge

The original master bathroom had a fiberglass tub/shower combo that the homeowners never used as a tub, a single-sink vanity with limited counter space, vinyl flooring showing wear, and basic builder-grade fixtures throughout. The layout wasted space on the unused tub while the shower felt cramped.

Our Solution

We removed the tub/shower combo and reconfigured the layout to create a spacious curbless walk-in shower with a linear drain, frameless glass enclosure, and dual showerheads. A custom 72-inch double vanity with quartz top replaced the single sink. Heated porcelain tile was installed throughout, with a decorative mosaic accent in the shower niche. New recessed LED lighting with a dimmer was added for ambiance.

The Result

The bathroom now feels twice as large despite the same footprint. The curbless shower is accessible and elegant, the dual vanity eliminates morning conflicts, and the heated floors make the space comfortable year-round — particularly valuable during Idaho winters.
