Tub Removal and Custom Walk-In Shower Build in Treasure Valley

Here's what we were working with - a bathroom that had a freestanding soaker tub sitting in the middle of the floor, eating up a huge chunk of usable space. It wasn't a bad bathroom, but it wasn't working the way the homeowner needed it to. The tub barely got used, and the existing shower felt cramped. Something had to give.

So we pulled the tub, reworked the layout entirely, and used that reclaimed floor space to build out a much larger custom walk-in shower. That's the kind of decision that changes how a bathroom actually functions day to day. More room, better flow, and a shower you actually want to use.

The tile work was a big part of getting this right. We ran large-format marble-look porcelain from floor to ceiling on the shower walls - the kind of clean, high-gloss finish that makes the whole space feel bigger and brighter. The black mosaic tile on the shower floor grounds the design without making it feel heavy. Paired with matte black fixtures and a frameless glass panel, the whole thing pulls together in a way that feels intentional rather than thrown together.

The built-in niche with the black metal trim detail is one of those things that separates a well-planned remodel from a basic one. It's flush with the wall, tiled to match, and trimmed clean - no plastic shelf caddies, no afterthought storage. That's the difference between something that looks good on day one and something that still looks good years down the road. Every detail in this bathroom remodel was thought through, not just the big stuff.

This is exactly the kind of work we do at Hurricane Construction - full bathroom remodels, custom tile, layout changes, the whole thing.
