See what is available through our full lineup of plumbing and installation services for local properties:

• New Shower Builds – We install complete showers from the subfloor up, including mortar bed or prefab pan placement, waterproof membrane application, wall tile, and all supply and drain connections.
• Bathtub-to-Shower Conversion – We remove existing tubs, reconfigure drain and supply lines, waterproof the wet area, and finish the space with a shower pan or a fully tiled floor and wall surround.
• Walk-In and Curbless Shower Installation – Low-threshold and zero-entry showers improve safety and accessibility for all household members. We design and install these showers to meet both local code and practical daily needs.
• Shower Valve Replacement – A worn or failing shower valve causes temperature inconsistency, pressure problems, or slow leaks inside your wall cavity. We replace pressure-balancing and thermostatic valves with quality, long-lasting units.
• Shower Pan and Liner Repair – A compromised shower pan allows water to reach the subfloor, leading to rot and mold growth. We remove damaged pans, inspect the substrate below, and install a properly sloped, watertight replacement.
• Tile Surround Installation – We install ceramic, porcelain, and natural stone tile with correct waterproof backing, properly spaced grout joints, and caulk at all change-of-plane connections.
• Shower Door and Glass Enclosure Installation – We install framed, semi-frameless, and frameless glass doors with secure hardware, level alignment, and watertight seals throughout.
• Shower Drain Installation and Replacement – We install and replace center, linear, and offset drains with the correct pitch to keep water moving toward the drain and away from walls and floors.

A well-executed shower installation is built to last and requires far less attention over time than one that was rushed or improperly planned at the start.

Shower Installation FAQs: Rock Hill, SC Residents’ Most Common Questions

1. How much does a shower installation typically cost?

The cost of a shower installation varies based on the type of project and the materials involved. A basic valve or showerhead replacement is far less expensive than a full walk-in shower build with custom tile and glass enclosure. Factors that affect the final price include shower size, material selections, existing plumbing condition, and whether drain or supply lines need to be relocated. Our team provides a detailed written estimate after reviewing your bathroom so you have accurate numbers before any work begins.

2. Is a permit required for shower installation in Rock Hill, SC?

Any shower installation project in Rock Hill, SC that involves changes to plumbing supply lines, drain connections, or new fixture placements requires a permit through the local building authority. This includes full shower builds, bathtub-to-shower conversions, and any project that relocates existing plumbing. Skipping the permit process can result in fines and complications when selling your home. B&B Family Plumbing manages the full permit application and inspection process on your behalf from start to finish.

3. What type of shower pan is the right choice—mortar bed or prefab base?

Both options perform well when installed by a qualified team. A mortar-bed shower pan is built on-site with a sloped mortar layer and waterproof liner, offering more flexibility in size, shape, and design. A prefab acrylic or fiberglass base installs faster and costs less upfront, but offers fewer design options. The right choice depends on your budget, timeline, and bathroom layout. Our team walks you through both options after reviewing your space so you can make a confident, informed decision.

4. How long does a full shower installation take from start to finish?

A complete shower build—covering demolition, plumbing rough-in, waterproofing, tile installation, and fixture connections—typically takes four to six business days depending on the scope of work. Simpler projects such as a shower base swap or a valve replacement can be completed in a single day. Our team sets a clear project schedule before work begins and communicates any updates as the project moves forward.

5. What are the signs that a shower needs to be replaced rather than repaired?

Watch for soft or discolored spots on the wall or floor near the shower, a persistent musty smell, grout that keeps cracking or falling loose, water that pools instead of draining properly, or tile that shifts when touched. These signs indicate that water has been breaching the tile surface and reaching the structure behind it. A damaged shower does not stabilize on its own—harm spreads with every use. Our team inspects the full wet area, identifies the root cause, and provides a clear recommendation on whether targeted repair or a new shower installation is the most practical and cost-effective path forward.
