Custom Shower Installation in Mt Prospect, IL

B&C Remodeling designs and builds custom showers for homeowners in Mt Prospect, IL โ€” tile work, glass enclosures, multi-head setups, all of it. We waterproof the walls correctly before a single tile goes up, so the shower performs without leaks for years. As a bathroom remodeler with over 20 years in the NW Suburbs, we've seen what happens when that step gets skipped.

Why Choose Us for Custom Shower

We're a family-owned contractor, not a big box referral service. When you call B&C Remodeling about a custom shower installation, you talk to the people who will actually build it. That matters when decisions come up mid-project, because they always do.

Our tile setters are precise. Our waterproofing is done to spec every time. We've completed bath and shower remodels across Mt Prospect, IL for two decades, and most of our new customers come from neighbors who already hired us. That track record is how we measure our work.

How We Work

Every shower remodel starts with a site visit. We look at your existing plumbing, your subfloor, and the footprint you're working with. From there we help you nail down your shower design โ€” tile selection, glass enclosure style, showerhead layout. Demo comes next, then waterproofing, then tile, then fixtures. We don't rush the waterproofing stage. Once everything is set and cured, we do a final walk-through with you before we call the job done.

Custom Shower in Mt Prospect, IL

Mt Prospect, IL gets real winters. The freeze-thaw cycle that hits the Chicago area every year does more damage than most homeowners realize โ€” not just outside, but inside older homes where moisture finds its way into walls. A bathroom shower renovation done without proper waterproofing will show problems within a few seasons. Grout cracks, tiles pop, and mold moves in behind the wall. We build showers that hold up to Illinois weather patterns and the humidity swings that come with them.

Shower Design That Fits How You Actually Use the Space

A good shower design starts with your habits, not a catalog photo. Do you want a bench? A rainfall head plus a handheld? A niche for shampoo instead of a caddy? We ask those questions before we draw anything up. The layout we settle on has to work for the people using it every day.

We handle everything from a straightforward single-head shower installation to a full multi-head setup with body sprays and a digital valve. If you're replacing an old tub-shower combo, we can open up the space and give you something that actually fits the room.

Custom Showers Built With Tile That Lasts

Most of the callbacks we see from other contractors trace back to bad tile work โ€” uneven joints, wrong grout for a wet area, or tile set over a flex point in the floor. We don't cut corners on material selection or prep.

For a bathroom shower renovation, we use tile and grout rated for continuous wet exposure. Large-format tile, mosaic accents, natural stone โ€” we work with all of it. The goal is a shower that looks sharp on day one and still looks sharp five years from now.

Bath and Shower Remodel vs. Full Bathroom Renovation

Some homeowners only need the shower updated. Others want to take the whole bathroom down to the studs. We do both. A focused bath and shower remodel keeps cost contained and gets you a dramatically better shower without touching the vanity or the floor outside the wet zone.

If you're leaning toward a bigger scope, check out our full bathroom remodeling service. We can price the shower on its own or bundle it into a complete renovation โ€” whatever makes sense for your budget and timeline.

Common Questions

How long does a custom shower installation take in Mt Prospect, IL?
Most custom shower installations run five to eight business days once materials are on-site. Larger projects with complex tile patterns or structural changes take a bit longer. We give you a realistic timeline before work starts, not an optimistic one.
Do you handle the full bathroom shower renovation or just the shower itself?
We can do either. Some customers hire us for just the shower remodel, and we keep our work contained to that area. Others want us to handle the full bathroom while we're there. We're a full bathroom remodeler, so both scopes are in our wheelhouse.
How do I know the waterproofing is done correctly?
We use membrane-based waterproofing systems on the walls and floor pan before any tile goes down. You're welcome to see it before we cover it up โ€” we actually encourage that. Proper waterproofing is what separates a shower that lasts from one that fails inside three years.
