Simplicity Bath & Shower - Walk In Tub By SanSpa
Does anybody you know need a walk-in tub?
In the right situation, these tubs can be a game changer. They can give elderly homeowners the chance to remain independent. They can allow mobility-challenged homeowners the opportunity to take a sit-down, tub-style bath without worrying about a fall. And for those seeking a therapeutic bath, these tubs can provide just that.
But they're not right for everyone. Well-built walk-in tubs can be a sizable investment, and they have to be installed and maintained by folks who know what they're doing. Sometimes, a walk-in shower is a better option. This depends entirely on the particulars of your unique situation.
If you or someone you know would like to discuss a walk in tub or shower, give Simplicity Bath a call at 832-464-7251.

How NOT to Waterproof! Typical Contractor Waterproofing DISASTER
Here's what happens all too often when a general contractor who does many different types of work sells their customer a shower remodel. Bathrooms, tile, and waterproofing are COMPLICATED and you need to be a niche expert in this field if you are going to offer these services. I do not know the prior contractor here personally, but my client tells me he is personable and well-reviewed.
This goes to show that even good guys with good intentions are often unaware of the many potential pitfalls you face when offering these types of services, and the deep knowledge required to build this type of work properly.
We've all made mistakes - including my company - and they are going to happen from time to time, even amongst the best. However, what you're seeing here is not a single failure, it's a number of improper installation techniques stacked together, each critical, and each of which in no way complies with TCNA guidelines. The TCNA is the GOLD standard in the tile and waterproofing industry, yet most "purveyors" of tile, bathroom remodeling, and waterproofing services have never heard of them, and do not own a TCNA handbook.
It's time for the true pros in this business to stand up. Most consumers erroneously think we are all the same, or substantially similar, when nothing could be further from the truth. If you are considering a bathroom or shower remodel, I cannot stress enough that you need to evaluate your choices based on expertise and ability, over price and likability. Price and likability are great for buying a car, but when it comes to a daily-use shower or a bathroom remodel, this important work should only be entrusted to an expert in this field who can truly deliver what you want. It goes without saying that this level of reliability always comes with a price, and the right person for your project may well be the highest of the estimates you receive.

LARGE Corner Shower Remodel in Houston
We built this roomy tile shower with a full-size bench and custom niche for a married couple who wanted a BIG shower for their family. The Mrs had a very specific look in mind for the bathroom, with the primary goals being a large shower and a more open feel, with updated finishes. We were able to open up the space a bit by removing a false wall in the corner, and the freestanding vanities she purchased online made for a big improvement over the previous builder-grade, stock cabinets.
Sadly, they moved to Florida to be with family as soon as this project was finished.
Silver lining: we were informed that the house sold after just a handful of days on market :)
