The story
What we did.
Andrew had just bought the house when he found out the shower leaked. He called us to replace it before it could do any more damage.
Once the old shower was out, we found more than the leak: odd plumbing from an earlier job and some rot in the subfloor. We sorted out the plumbing, repaired the subfloor and rebuilt the shower on a brand-new Schluter waterproofing system.
Andrew picked a calm, neutral porcelain slab for the walls and the floor, and we added a half wall across the back for a storage ledge. Above the ledge, a subway-pattern tile adds texture and depth that complements the slab.
A Delta system brings a rain head down from the ceiling plus a separate handheld, and our standard barn-door style glass door in satin brass matches the warm finish of the fixtures. The whole job took five days.

★★★★★
These guys are the real deal! They are responsive, communicative throughout the whole process, and an overall pleasure to work with. I am indecisive in nature, and during the design process, I had an infinite amount of questions. Anthony and Nelson fielded all of my questions with patience and offered their design and technical expertise to help me come to a decision. I think I may have had 30 questions about shower faucets alone, and they had no problems answering every single one. We have a new construction home, and even with that, they took the time to correct any issues from the previous build. Even found a leak and saved me from future headaches! Would highly recommend Swish!
