Bathroom Remodel in Willis

From Dated Bathtub to Modern Walk-In Shower in Willis

When our clients in Willis reached out to EZ Bath, their master bathroom was stuck in the past. The space featured an outdated corner whirlpool tub with an old brass-framed glass enclosure, dated tile flooring, and a layout that didn't maximize functionality. The homeowners were ready for a complete transformation—they wanted to replace the aging tub with a spacious, modern walk-in shower and update every aspect of the bathroom's design. They envisioned a spa-like retreat with contemporary finishes and premium materials that would completely transform their daily routine.

The Transformation

The demolition phase was extensive. Our team carefully removed the old whirlpool tub, the brass-framed shower enclosure, and all the existing tile work. Once the old fixtures were out, we could see the scope of what needed updating—the underlying structure required significant plumbing rework to accommodate the new shower layout. The shower area was repositioned to take better advantage of the space, and we installed new plumbing lines for the modern shower system. The walls were stripped back to the studs, allowing us to address any moisture concerns and create a solid foundation for the new installation. Cement board and waterproofing membranes were carefully applied to ensure the longevity of the new shower enclosure.

The construction photos show the meticulous installation process. Orange mesh waterproofing and Schluter-KERDI systems were applied to the shower walls, creating a vapor-tight barrier. The plumbing was precisely positioned for the new multi-head shower system with both overhead rainfall and body spray capabilities. Every detail was planned to ensure proper drainage and structural integrity.

The Finished Result

The completed bathroom is nothing short of stunning. The centerpiece is a large, frameless glass walk-in shower with chrome fixtures that gleams against marble-look porcelain tile walls. The tile features a sophisticated gray and white vein pattern that adds movement and elegance to the space. The shower floor is a light gray with excellent slip resistance, and the thoughtful layout now provides ample room for two people to shower comfortably.

Beyond the shower, the entire bathroom reflects a modern aesthetic. The new layout maximizes usable space, and the premium materials throughout create a cohesive, high-end look. Chrome hardware and contemporary fixtures maintain the sleek, polished appearance. Large windows flood the space with natural light, and the overall design creates that luxurious spa atmosphere the homeowners desired.

This Willis bathroom remodel transformed an outdated, cramped space into a modern sanctuary. The removal of the aging whirlpool tub and dated enclosure, combined with the installation of a spacious walk-in shower with premium materials, has completely revitalized the master bath. The homeowners now have a beautiful, functional space that adds genuine value to their home and enhances their daily lives. At EZ Bath, we're proud to deliver transformations that exceed expectations.
