Shower Remodeling for Taylorsville Homes

A shower remodel replaces your old shower with a brand-new one: new walls, base, fixtures and glass. It can stay the same size, or open up into a roomier walk-in shower. We remodel showers in homes all over Taylorsville, from the original showers in 1970s homes to builder-grade showers in 1990s homes, and every project starts with a free estimate.

Why us

Why Taylorsville Homeowners Choose Us

01

Licensed and Insured, and You Can Check

Utah requires a DOPL-licensed contractor for most remodeling work. Our Utah contractor license is #14190160-5501, and you can look it up by number or name on the Utah Division of Professional Licensing website. Every Utah contractor license number ends in -5501, so it's a quick way to check anyone you're thinking of hiring. We're also insured for the work we do in your home.

02

Remodeling Since 2009

We've been remodeling since 2009, more than 15 years now. In a valley where so many homes went up between the 1970s and the 1990s, that experience helps us plan for what's usually behind a bathroom wall: older shower valves, tired supply lines and weak exhaust fans. Planning for them up front means fewer surprises halfway through your project.

03

A Free Estimate Built Around Your Shower

Every shower remodel starts with a free estimate. Sampled streets in Taylorsville's Watchwood area have a median build year of 1976, so many showers here have original valves and walls that are close to 50 years old. We look at what's there, talk through materials that hold up to our hard water, and give you a clear plan and price before any work begins.

Signs Your Shower Needs a Remodel

  • White scale that won't come off the glass or fixtures. Regional water averages 10-12 grains per gallon (Jordan Valley Water), which is "very hard."
  • Mildew that keeps coming back, or peeling paint. The EPA recommends indoor humidity below 60%, ideally 30-50%, and the Home Ventilating Institute recommends a fan that moves about 1 CFM per square foot.
  • Cracked tile, failing grout or a soft spot near the shower floor. These are often signs of water getting behind the walls.
  • A dripping showerhead or valve. Older showerheads may use up to 2.5 gallons per minute, versus 2.0 or less for WaterSense-labeled models (EPA).

Your Shower Options

01

Tile showers

Tile gives you the most choice in color, pattern and layout, and it can include extras like a built-in niche or a bench. It does have grout lines, so it's worth talking about grout types that resist staining.

02

Solid-surface and acrylic surrounds

Surround panels have few or no grout lines, which means less scrubbing. They're a popular pick when easy cleaning matters most.

03

Walk-in showers

A walk-in shower has a low or no-step entry and often a fixed glass panel instead of a swinging door. It's easier to get in and out of now and down the road, which is why it's popular with homeowners planning to stay put.

04

Shower doors and glass

Choose from framed or frameless doors, sliding doors, or a fixed panel. Glass opens a small bathroom up visually. Just be ready to squeegee it (see the hard water note below).

05

Fixtures and comfort upgrades

New shower valves, rain or handheld shower heads, grab bars, and better lighting and ventilation.

Shower Remodeling in Taylorsville: Local Tips

Hard water is the big one. Taylorsville's water comes from the Taylorsville-Bennion Improvement District, and Salt Lake Valley water is hard. Jordan Valley Water puts the regional average around 10-12 grains per gallon. That's the white crust on shower glass, chrome and grout lines. When you're choosing materials, it helps to:

  • pick fixture finishes and glass that don't show spots as easily,
  • consider fewer grout lines (larger tile or a surround), and
  • keep a squeegee in the shower. Really, it helps.

We're happy to talk through what holds up best with our water.

Older showers, older valves. A lot of Taylorsville homes were built between the 1970s and the 1990s. Sampled streets in the Watchwood area have a median build year of 1976, and Stonewood has many homes from the mid-1980s to the late 1990s. When a shower is that age, the valve in the wall and the wall behind the tile may need attention once things are opened up. A good estimate allows for that.

Ventilation matters. Steam with nowhere to go leads to peeling paint and mildew. If your bathroom fan is original or weak, a shower remodel is a good time to upgrade it.

Permits. In Taylorsville, replacing plumbing fixtures typically needs a plumbing permit, and electrical work (like a new fan circuit or lighting) typically needs an electrical permit. We'll go over what your project needs.

FAQ

Shower Remodeling FAQ

Still have a question? Call (385) 394-0604.

How much does a shower remodel cost?

It depends on the size, whether you choose tile or a surround, the glass, and whether plumbing moves. Keeping the same footprint usually costs less than changing the layout. We'll give you an exact price at your free estimate.

What kind of shower is easiest to keep clean with hard water?

Fewer grout lines and finishes that hide water spots make the biggest difference. Solid-surface or acrylic surrounds and larger tile both cut down on grout. With glass, regular squeegeeing goes a long way.

Can you turn my tub into a walk-in shower?

Yes. That's a tub-to-shower conversion, one of our most popular projects.

Do I need a permit to replace a shower in Taylorsville?

Usually, if plumbing or electrical work is involved. Replacing plumbing fixtures typically needs a plumbing permit in Taylorsville. Cosmetic-only work generally doesn't.

Do you remodel showers outside Taylorsville?

Yes. We also work in Kearns, West Valley City, West Jordan and Murray.
