Updated · Bath & Shower Remodelers, Conroe, TX

Your shower sees more daily use than almost any other surface in your home, which means wear shows up faster. Grout discolors, caulk cracks, prefabricated surrounds yellow, and outdated fixtures remind you every morning that it's time for a change. A well-executed shower remodel does more than refresh the look: it fixes the underlying waterproofing, upgrades the functionality, and can turn a cramped corner into a spa-style shower you actually look forward to stepping into.

At Bath and Shower Remodelers, we've handled shower projects of every size and scope throughout Conroe, TX: from straightforward acrylic surround swaps in older tract homes to fully custom walk-in builds with large-format porcelain, frameless glass, rainfall heads and built-in niches. We work directly with Conroe homeowners from the first conversation through the final walkthrough, which means you always know who to call and what's happening next. No subcontracting surprises, no dropped balls between trades.

Conroe's climate adds a layer of complexity that matters for shower work. The combination of high humidity, hard water and significant temperature swings means waterproofing isn't optional. It's the foundation of a shower that will last. Every project we build uses a full waterproof membrane system behind the tile, not just cement board. That detail alone is the difference between a shower that looks great for 20 years and one that hides mold behind the walls in five.

What's Included in Our Shower Remodel Service

Every shower remodel we deliver in Conroe is a complete scope, not a piecemeal renovation where you're coordinating tile, plumbing and glass with three different companies. Here's what we handle:

Custom Tile Work

Floor-to-ceiling tile installation using your choice of ceramic, porcelain, natural stone, or large-format slabs. Proper setting bed, waterproof membrane, and precision grout joints. We tile floors, walls, and niches as a single continuous waterproofed system.

Shower Enclosures & Glass

Frameless, semi-frameless, or framed glass door and panel installation. We source tempered safety glass and precision-fit each enclosure to your shower opening. Frameless options are available in multiple hardware finishes: chrome, brushed nickel, matte black and oil-rubbed bronze.

Fixtures & Hardware

Showerhead replacement, valve upgrades, handheld wand addition, body spray installation, and thermostatic mixing valve rough-in. We work with all major brands and can help you select fixtures that match your finish and stay within budget.

Drainage & Waterproofing

Proper drain slope, new drain body installation and a full waterproof membrane applied to walls and the shower pan before any tile goes down. This is the most important part of a lasting shower remodel, and the part most often skipped in DIY and low-bid jobs.

Niche & Shelf Installation

Recessed tile niches for shampoo and soap storage, corner shelves, bench seating, and built-in ledges. All niche interiors are tiled and fully waterproofed to match the surrounding shower walls.

ADA-Compliant Options

Curbless (zero-threshold) entries, fold-down bench seating, ADA-compliant grab bar blocking and installation, handheld showerhead with slide bar, and wider entry openings. Ideal for aging-in-place planning or accessibility needs.

Types of Shower Remodels We Offer in Conroe

Not every shower project is the same. Here are the four most common types of shower remodels we complete for Conroe homeowners:

Walk-In Shower Conversion

Converting a tub alcove or an existing shower stall into a full walk-in is the most popular remodel we do in Conroe. We remove the tub or old shower unit, re-configure the floor for the new drain location and slope, install the waterproof base system, and build the shower from the ground up with custom tile and glass. The result is a spacious, open shower with no threshold to step over and a completely personalized look. If this is your goal, visit our walk-in shower installation page for full details.

Tile Shower Surround Replacement

If the bones of your shower are fine but the tile is dated, cracked, or harboring mold in the grout lines, a surround replacement is the right move. We demo the existing tile and surround down to the studs, inspect for any water damage, install fresh cement board or waterproof backer, apply a membrane, and tile the walls fresh. This is a cost-effective way to completely change the look of an existing shower without reconfiguring the plumbing or changing the footprint.

Shower Expansion

Some showers, especially in older Conroe homes built in the 1970s and 80s, are simply too small by modern standards. If adjacent square footage is available (a linen closet, unused hallway space, or an oversized bathroom layout), we can expand the shower footprint before rebuilding. This involves framing, some plumbing relocation, and a full new tile build, but the result is a shower that feels like a completely different space.

Steam Shower Addition

For homeowners looking to add a true spa experience, we install steam shower systems as part of a full shower remodel. Steam requires a sealed glass enclosure, a waterproof ceiling, a thermostatic steam generator and proper ventilation. All of it is engineered into the project from the design phase, not spec'd in at the end. See our steam shower installation page for more on this specialty service.

Shower Remodel Cost in Conroe, TX

Shower remodel pricing in Conroe varies based on the scope of work, the tile and materials you select, the complexity of the plumbing, and the size of the shower. Here are the general ranges we see:

Basic Surround Replacement

Starting from $3,500

Removal of existing tile or surround, new cement board or waterproof backer, ceramic or entry-level porcelain tile, standard chrome fixtures, and basic grout and caulk. Best for homeowners who want a clean refresh on an existing shower footprint without major changes.

Mid-Range Custom Tile Walk-In

$6,000 - $12,000

Complete tub or shower demo, new drain and waterproof pan system, porcelain or stone tile, a frameless or semi-frameless glass enclosure, updated fixtures, a built-in niche, and a bench. This is our most common project range for Conroe homeowners doing a meaningful upgrade.

Premium Custom Shower

Starting from $15,000

Large-format stone or designer porcelain, fully frameless glass, thermostatic valves with body sprays and rainfall head, steam generator, floor-to-ceiling tile with mitered corners, custom lighting and multiple niches. These are the projects we love. Every detail is specified to the homeowner's taste.

We don't quote from photos or over the phone. The details that affect price, including existing plumbing locations, subfloor condition, wall framing and drain accessibility, can only be evaluated in person. Our assessments are free and come with no obligation.

Our Shower Remodel Process

We keep every project organized so you know exactly what to expect at every stage. Here's how a shower remodel works from start to finish:

  1. 1

    Free On-Site Assessment

    We visit your home, evaluate the existing shower, discuss your goals and design preferences, assess the plumbing and structural conditions, and answer every question you have. We leave with everything we need to build an accurate, detailed quote. You leave with a clear sense of what the project will involve.

  2. 2

    Design & Selection

    Once you've approved the quote, we work through tile selection, fixture choices, glass style, hardware finish, and any custom features like niches or benches. We can source materials on your behalf or work with tile and fixtures you've already selected. Everything is confirmed in writing before any work begins.

  3. 3

    Demo & Build

    We protect your home (floors, doorways, and adjacent surfaces) before demolition starts. Existing tile, surrounds, or fixtures are removed, the space is inspected for any water damage or mold, and the build begins: waterproofing, setting bed, tile installation, plumbing, and finally the glass enclosure. We keep your home clean and the work area contained throughout.

  4. 4

    Final Walkthrough

    Before we consider the job done, we walk through every detail with you. We test every fixture, inspect every grout joint and caulk line, confirm the door swings and seals correctly, and make sure you're completely satisfied. Any punch-list items are handled before we pack up. You get a clean, finished shower, not a list of things to follow up on.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does a shower remodel take in Conroe?

Most shower remodels in Conroe take between 1 and 3 weeks from demo day to final walkthrough. A basic surround replacement on an existing footprint typically wraps up in 5-7 business days. A full custom tile walk-in with new plumbing rough-in, a frameless glass enclosure, and a niche will generally run 2-3 weeks. We give you a project-specific timeline during your free on-site assessment so there are no surprises.

Can you convert a tub to a walk-in shower?

Yes. Tub-to-walk-in-shower conversions are one of our most requested projects in Conroe. We remove the existing tub, re-slope the subfloor for proper drainage, install a linear or center drain, and build out your new walk-in shower with tile, glass and fixtures of your choice. See our dedicated tub-to-shower conversion page at /tub-to-shower-conversion/ for full details and pricing.

Do I need a permit for a shower remodel in Conroe, TX?

It depends on the scope. Cosmetic work like replacing tile, swapping fixtures or updating a glass door generally does not require a permit. However, if your project involves moving or adding plumbing lines, altering drain locations, or making structural changes to walls, a permit is required by the City of Conroe. We handle all permitting on your behalf as part of our full-service approach. You don't have to visit City Hall or file a single form.

What tile options do you offer for shower walls?

We work with a wide selection of tile materials to match every aesthetic and budget. Options include ceramic (the most affordable and easy to clean), porcelain (denser than ceramic, which makes it well-suited to Conroe's humidity), natural stone such as travertine, slate or marble (premium look, requires sealing) and large-format tiles (12x24 or 24x48 slabs that create a clean, modern appearance with fewer grout lines). Our team helps you choose the right tile for your shower's specific moisture exposure and your design goals.

How much does a shower remodel cost in Conroe?

Shower remodel costs in Conroe start from $3,500 for a basic acrylic or prefabricated surround replacement. A mid-range custom tile walk-in shower typically runs $6,000-$12,000 depending on tile selection, glass enclosure style and fixture upgrades. Premium projects with large-format stone, frameless glass, rainfall heads, built-in steam and custom niches start from $15,000. We don't quote remotely, since plumbing locations, subfloor condition and wall framing can only be assessed in person. Assessments are free.
