FAQ's

  • How long does a typical shower installation take from start to finish?

    Most standard shower installations by River City Bath take 1 to 3 days, depending on the complexity of the project and whether demolition is required. Custom tile work, plumbing rerouting, or niche shelving may add additional time. However, pre-fabricated shower systems can often be completed faster. We conduct a thorough site inspection before the project begins, so timelines are clear and realistic. Our streamlined process minimizes disruption and ensures quality without cutting corners, with attention to cleanup and finishing touches before we consider the job complete.

  • Do I need to update plumbing when replacing my shower?

    Not always—but it’s often a smart long-term decision. Older plumbing may not be compatible with modern fixtures or may show signs of corrosion, mineral buildup, or inadequate pressure. River City Bath evaluates your plumbing during the planning phase. If upgrades are recommended, we explain why and how it benefits you in the long run. Proactively replacing outdated plumbing during a shower remodel can prevent leaks, reduce future repair costs, and ensure optimal performance from new showerheads, valves, and controls.

  • Are permits needed for a shower installation in South Park Township, PA?

    Yes, permits may be required, especially when making changes to plumbing, structural framing, or electrical systems. River City Bath handles this process for you, including submitting plans, scheduling inspections, and ensuring full code compliance with local regulations. We’ve worked extensively in South Park Township and know the ins and outs of permitting. Handling permits properly ensures your renovation is legal, safe, and won’t present problems during home resale.

  • What accessibility features should I consider in a new shower?

    If you plan to age in place or want to future-proof your home, we recommend features like curbless entry, grab bars, built-in benches, and handheld showerheads on sliding bars. These enhance safety and comfort without sacrificing style. River City Bath specializes in designing showers that are ADA-conscious but modern, blending function with form. We’ll help you decide whether a walk-in conversion or additional reinforcement is appropriate for your long-term needs.

  • Why does pricing vary so much between shower installation contractors?

    Prices can vary due to material quality, labor experience, scope of work, and what’s included (or not) in the estimate. Some companies underbid, only to add hidden fees later. River City Bath provides transparent, detailed quotes upfront, including demolition, plumbing, waterproofing, materials, and finishes. We use licensed professionals and premium materials to deliver durable results. Our pricing reflects the true cost of doing it right the first time—so you’re not paying more for repairs or replacements down the road.

  • What are some common issues that arise during a shower remodel—and how do you handle them?

    Hidden damage like mold, rot, or faulty plumbing is often uncovered once demolition begins. River City Bath is prepared for these surprises and communicates findings promptly with photos and repair recommendations. We don’t take shortcuts—any discovered issues are resolved correctly to avoid bigger problems later. This transparency and problem-solving approach is why clients trust us. Our focus is always long-term durability, not quick fixes.

  • How do I maintain my new shower to keep it looking brand new?

    For tile showers, wipe down surfaces after use to prevent grout staining and mold. Use pH-neutral cleaners and reseal grout annually. Acrylic and solid panels are easier to clean but still benefit from regular wiping and avoiding abrasive products. River City Bath provides a custom care guide based on your materials and includes maintenance tips for keeping your shower in pristine condition. With proper upkeep, your new shower will look and perform like new for many years.

  • Can I convert my bathtub into a shower?

    Yes—tub-to-shower conversions are one of the most popular services we offer. Whether you're looking to increase accessibility or simply don't use your bathtub, converting it into a walk-in shower opens up space and adds value. River City Bath assesses whether your bathroom layout supports a direct conversion and designs a solution that maximizes your space, complies with plumbing code, and reflects your aesthetic goals. We can also add built-in shelving or a bench to enhance usability.

  • What are the benefits of installing a shower niche instead of corner shelves?

    A shower niche offers a sleek, built-in storage solution that doesn’t intrude into your showering space. Unlike aftermarket shelves, niches are recessed into the wall and can be tiled to match your design. They’re easier to clean and look more intentional. At River City Bath, we customize niche placement based on user height and daily habits, ensuring function meets design. It's a small feature that dramatically improves both appearance and usability.

  • Do you offer warranties on your shower installations?

    Yes. We offer comprehensive warranties on both labor and materials. Specific warranty terms depend on the products used (such as shower pans, waterproofing systems, or wall materials), but we always stand behind our craftsmanship. River City Bath is fully insured and provides a written warranty upon completion. Our goal is peace of mind—for years after your installation is complete.
