Custom & Waterproof Showers
Accessibility, style and size are all important factors to consider when replacing or adding a shower to your home.
They are arguably one of the most important factors in a bathroom renovation. At DM Knapp Construction Co., we would love to help you find the tile or solid-surface shower that fits your budget, and your style. Here are some things to consider before embarking on a shower renovation:
Waterproofing
Using the reputable Kerdi waterproofing shower system, we ensure that your bathroom remodel will last for years to come. Leaky showers can cause serious damage, and often require a complete renovation to fix even a small leak. At DM Knapp Construction, we take those details seriously, and deliver fully waterproof showers to every customer, every time.
Tile
Tile offers a beautiful finish to your shower, but is more expensive per square foot than a solid surface shower. There are countless options to choose from to get just the look you want. We use the Schluter Kerdi waterproof shower system behind any tile shower base or wall, which comes with a lifetime warranty you can rely on.
Solid Surface
Solid surface showers are less expensive for bases and walls. They are durable and easy to clean. We use the Onyx Collection for solid surface waterproof shower installations, which has a great reputation and warranty.
Soap Niches
Recessed niches can be fully customized to fit your vision. They can be any shape and size, and serve as a seamless way to store shower essentials like soap, shampoo and more. Corner niches are usually made of Onyx and can be mounted on the shower in the corner to give your newly remodeled shower full functionality.
Benches
Benches can be fully customized to fit your shower remodel goals. From Onyx solid surface to tile benches, you can get the size, style and functionality you’re looking for.
Glass Enclosure
There are two primary types of glass enclosures for showers—sliding glass doors and custom enclosures. Today’s sliding glass doors are very sleek and often frameless, giving your shower a beautiful finish without breaking the budget. Custom glass enclosures are more expensive, but can be any shape and completely frameless for a high-end look.
Plumbing
Depending on the size of your shower, we can install the right shower head(s) to meet your family’s preferences.
“Dennis and crew just completed a total remodel of our kitchen. It included new cabinets, countertops, backsplash, tile flooring and the installation of a pass- through window / seating area. WE COULD NOT BE HAPPIER WITH THE RESULTS! The craftsmanship and attention to detail were outstanding. Dennis is a great communicator / planner. We were fully informed from start to finish on what to expect and the progress of the job. Dennis was a pleasure to work with and we highly recommend him. He is a reliable professional who does quality work at a reasonable price.
Lynne L.“I cannot recommend Dennis and his crew enough. They were professional, personable and kept to the set timeline. I appreciated the constant communication and asking for my feedback throughout the project. They cleaned up every day and the finishing project is top notch. Even the glass installer commented on the quality of the work. I will definitely be referring friends and family and will always have Dennis is mind for future projects!”
Jennifer H.“Don’t hesitate! DM Knapp Construction recently completed full remodels of our main bathroom plus two secondary bathrooms. They are gorgeous!! Dennis is the ultimate professional. His pride of workmanship shows in his projects. His tile work is masterful! He took care to respect our home, kept a clean job site, was there when he said he’d be, and was excellent corresponding with us. Dennis does his own work (with a very capable employee) and stayed on the job through completion. (He didn’t disappear for days at a time, like some contractors will. We couldn’t be happier with our completed bathrooms and highly recommend DM Knapp Construction!!”
