When I first walked into a bathroom renovated by Excel Shower & Bath, I was immediately struck by the attention to detail. The seamless Onyx™ shower walls, perfectly matched fixtures, and overall craftsmanship spoke volumes about why this Tinley Park-based company has earned its reputation as the Bay Area’s premier home remodeler. “We replaced an outdated oversized tub with a stunning Onyx shower which perfectly matched the painted walls,” shares customer Sharon L. Filkins, echoing the sentiment of countless satisfied homeowners. Excel’s comprehensive design-build-install approach has revolutionized bathroom remodeling in the region, combining innovative design with flawless execution.
The Excel Design Philosophy: Customization Meets Functionality
Excel Shower & Bath’s approach to bathroom remodeling centers on a perfect balance between personalized aesthetics and practical functionality. Each project begins with a comprehensive consultation process where homeowners can express their vision while receiving expert guidance on practical considerations. This collaborative approach ensures that the final design not only looks stunning but also meets the specific needs of each household.
At the core of Excel’s design offerings is the premium Onyx™ Collection, renowned in the industry for its exceptional durability and remarkable design flexibility. This high-quality material serves as the foundation for creating bathrooms that withstand daily use while maintaining their beauty for years to come.
Accessibility remains a key consideration in Excel’s design philosophy. The company offers numerous options to enhance bathroom safety and usability, including:
- Barrier-free shower entries
- Strategically placed grab bars
- Shower seats for added comfort
- Non-slip flooring options
- Adjustable shower fixtures
The customization possibilities extend to an extensive selection of colors, textures, and fixtures that can transform any bathroom into a personalized retreat. Whether clients prefer classic neutrals or bold statement pieces, Excel’s design team helps navigate these choices to create cohesive, beautiful spaces.
What truly sets Excel apart is their commitment to designs that incorporate current trends while maintaining timeless elements. This thoughtful approach not only creates bathrooms that feel contemporary but also increases long-term home value—an important consideration for homeowners thinking about future resale potential.
Master Craftsmanship: The Building Process
Excellence in bathroom remodeling begins well before the first tile is placed. Excel’s building process starts with meticulous preparation, including thorough protection of surrounding areas to prevent damage to existing structures and furnishings. This careful groundwork establishes the foundation for exceptional results.
The installation of shower bases represents a critical phase in Excel’s construction process. Available in both standard and custom dimensions, these bases are precisely fitted to accommodate various bathroom layouts. The team’s expertise ensures that even challenging spaces receive perfectly sized installations that maximize functionality.
Wall panel installation showcases the team’s precision craftsmanship. Each panel is customized to the unique specifications of the bathroom, creating seamless transitions and waterproof integrity. This attention to detail prevents future issues with moisture and maintains the bathroom’s aesthetic appeal.
For bathtub replacements and tub-to-shower conversions, Excel employs specialized techniques refined through years of experience. These transformations often dramatically improve space utilization while updating the bathroom’s overall look and accessibility.
Throughout every project, accessibility features receive careful implementation. Grab bars are securely anchored, non-slip flooring is properly installed, and all elements are positioned for optimal safety and convenience. The process includes multiple quality control checks at critical stages to guarantee excellence in both form and function.
Seamless Installation: From Concept to Completion
The installation teams at Excel Shower & Bath undergo specialized training specifically for Onyx™ products, ensuring they possess the technical expertise necessary for flawless implementation. This specialized knowledge translates into superior results that meet the high standards both the company and its clients expect.
One of Excel’s most appreciated service features is their efficient timeline—most standard projects reach completion within just two days. This quick turnaround minimizes the inconvenience often associated with bathroom renovations, allowing families to resume normal routines promptly.
During the remodeling process, the installation team takes multiple measures to reduce household disruption. From containing dust to maintaining clear pathways through the home, these considerations demonstrate respect for clients’ living spaces beyond the bathroom itself.
Upon completion of the installation, Excel adheres to a thorough clean-up protocol. Teams leave spaces spotless, removing all construction debris and cleaning surfaces to ensure the bathroom is ready for immediate use. This commitment to cleanliness reflects the company’s overall attention to detail.
The final stage involves a comprehensive walkthrough with customers, during which the installation team explains features, answers questions, and confirms complete satisfaction. Any concerns are addressed immediately, demonstrating Excel’s dedication to customer happiness.
All projects come with comprehensive warranty coverage for both products and workmanship, providing customers with confidence in their investment. This warranty protection underscores Excel’s belief in the quality and longevity of their bathroom renovations.
