Walk in Shower Installation in Fairway Estates

Walk in shower installation in Fairway Estates is a specialty job, not a weekend project. The homes here, many built from the 1970s through the 1990s around the Pocatello Golf Course, were framed for tub-and-surround combos. Pulling a tub and dropping in a curbless pan means moving the drain, sistering joists, and rebuilding the waterproofing from the studs out. We do that work every week in 83201 and 83204. Our crew handles the plumbing rough-in, Schluter Systems membrane, Laticrete thinset, and the finish tile in one continuous scope, so you are not juggling three subcontractors. If you have been searching for a Fairway Estates walk in shower installation near you that actually shows up on schedule, we are set up for it. We also serve Highland and Mountain View, and we keep materials stocked for the low-threshold and ADA-compliant layouts that older Fairway Estates homeowners ask for most.

Fairway Estates sits on the east bench above Pocatello, and the housing stock reflects it: larger lots, upscale finishes, and a lot of original 1980s bathrooms that are due. Cold winters here push freeze-thaw stress on supply lines and drain traps, so we see more cracked shower pans and failed caulking than crews working down in the valley. The golf course community also means a steady stream of remodel work tied to resale prep. We keep a stocked truck in the area because half our Fairway Estates calls turn into same-week installs.

How We Execute Walk in Shower Installation in Fairway Estates

Every Fairway Estates job starts with a 30-minute walkthrough. We check the subfloor, the drain location, the valve rough-in depth, and whether the wall behind the tile is drywall or cement backer board. From there we wr

Cold winters stress supply lines and traps

Freeze-thaw cycles in Fairway Estates crack older copper and push joints apart. Showers that sat unused through a cold snap often leak on first use in spring.

We inspect every supply line and trap arm while the wall is open, replace questionable copper with PEX, and insulate exterior-wall runs before closing up. If a line is at risk, we tell you before the tile goes on.

1980s builds with original pans and valves

1980s builds with original pans and valves

Most Fairway Estates homes still have the original acrylic pan and a two-handle valve. Pans flex, weep, and crack; valves lose pressure balance and scald when someone flushes a toilet.

We replace the pan and valve as a package, not one at a time. New pressure-balance or thermostatic valve, new pan with fresh liner, new drain. One permit, one inspection, one warranty.

Tight crawlspaces and shallow joist bays
Fairway Estates walk in shower installation

Tight crawlspaces and shallow joist bays

Curbless pans need a 1.5 to 2 inch drop. Fairway Estates homes on the east bench often have shallow joist bays or a finished ceiling below, which limits how far we can recess.

We measure joist depth and direction before quoting. If a full curbless drop is not possible, we build a low-threshold pan at 2 to 4 inches, which still gets you easy entry without cutting the ceiling below.

Fairway Estates walk in shower installation FAQ

Walk in Shower Installation in Fairway Estates: FAQs

Our team can help if your question is not answered here.

Call +19863369120 →

Most Fairway Estates jobs run $4,200 to $9,800 for a tub-to-shower conversion, and $7,500 to $14,000 for a custom tile shower with frameless glass. A pan replacement alone is $1,800 to $3,200. Curbless pans and natural stone tile push the number up. We quote a fixed price after the walkthrough.

The best company is the one that pulls the permit, names its waterproofing system, and warranties the labor. We use Schluter Kerdi and Laticrete Hydro Ban, we are licensed and insured in Idaho, and we warranty our workmanship for 5 years. Ask any contractor those three questions before you hire.

Yes, if you are moving the drain, replacing the valve, or changing the pan. Bannock County and the City of Pocatello require a plumbing permit for that work, and it gets inspected. We pull the permit and meet the inspector. A simple door or fixture swap usually does not need one.

A tub-to-shower conversion runs 4 to 6 working days. A full custom tile shower with frameless glass runs 6 to 9 days, plus 10 to 14 days of lead time for the glass. A pan replacement alone is usually one day. We give you a written schedule before we start.

For emergencies, yes. If a pan has failed or a supply line burst, we can set a temporary pan and valve the same day and schedule the finish work after. For a standard install, we can usually start within a week of the estimate. Call before noon for a same-day estimate.
