What goes into the price of a shower replacement in Milwaukee, WI?

A shower replacement is priced around five decisions: which system you pick, how big the shower is, how low the entry sits, what goes on the walls and which door and valve you want. Samuel Mueller and BathWraps® both cover every one of those choices, so you can match the look to your budget. See the Wisconsin shower replacement cost guide for how those decisions add up.

Your free in home consultation gives you an exact, personal price, accurate to the penny, and the price American Shower Company writes down is the price you pay.

Homeowners in Milwaukee, WI usually come to us with one of three goals: a cleaner, newer look, an easier way in and out, or a bathroom that stops needing constant scrubbing. Below you will find how a shower replacement works here, what moves the scope, and what to expect from our team.

Shower Replacement in Milwaukee: the local picture

Milwaukee is served from our Waukesha location, and it has the oldest homes we work in, with cast iron tubs, plaster walls and original drain lines in its bungalows and duplexes. Low threshold showers and grab bars are a common request here, and the crew plans the route out of an upper flat before the day starts.

How American Shower Company does the work

We are a local shower and bath replacement company and we stand behind every job. You are not handed off to a subcontractor. Every job follows the same disciplined process:

Two shower systems, each built to last

Grout is the weak point in most old showers. It soaks up water, darkens, cracks and lets moisture reach the wall cavity. Both of our systems replace it with large wall panels and a one piece base. A Premium Samuel Mueller System is solid surface: the base is compression molded under 5,000 psi into a dense, nonporous piece, the surface resists mold, mildew, stains and scratches, and Samuel Mueller describes its flooring as the most slip resistant on the market. A Signature BathWraps® System is nonporous virgin acrylic infused with Silver Ion antimicrobial protection for the life of the system, joined with color matched SeamLock, and it is lighter and more economical. Which is right depends on your preferences and budget. American Shower Company installs either one with its own employees, often in one day, under our Lifetime Warranty and Workmanship Guarantee.

Frequently asked questions

What happens if the installers find damage behind my old shower?

We fix it so the new shower sits on sound framing and a working drain. James Z. described his job this way: "A stud was replaced and the plumber found a faulty drain pipe and replaced it." Anything found at tear out is explained before it is repaired, and nothing is added to your price without your approval.

Which is better for a shower, solid surface or acrylic?

Both are quality choices, and the right one depends on your preferences and budget. Premium Samuel Mueller Systems are solid surface: Samuel Mueller compression molds its bases under 5,000 psi into a dense, nonporous piece with a heavier, stone like feel. Signature BathWraps® Systems are nonporous virgin acrylic infused with Silver Ion antimicrobial protection for the life of the system, lighter, offered in a wide range of looks and more economical. Compared with tile, neither has real grout to scrub or seal, and installation is far shorter.

Can you make a replacement shower safer to use?

Yes. Grab bars can be placed where you naturally reach, a fold down seat can be added, and an ultra low threshold Samuel Mueller base or a barrier free or Easy Step BathWraps® base cuts the step in. Samuel Mueller floors are textured for grip. Juli H. wrote that her new shower "will be great for my Mom and for us," which is a common reason people replace a shower.

What wall styles and finishes can I choose?

Samuel Mueller offers two wall collections. Pioneer includes Gloss White Hexagon, Pure White 8x16 Tile, Gloss White 3x8 Subway and textured white or dark grey in vertical and herringbone patterns, and Monterey includes Classic Tile, Classic Velvet, Marble Velvet, Deco and Marble Tile looks such as Moonstone, Butterscotch and Carrera Subway. BathWraps® adds its Signature collection, with marble, simulated tile and textured grout walls, and its Lifestyle collection of textured walls, joined with color matched SeamLock.

Can a new shower really be installed in one day?

Many can. When the new shower uses the same footprint, our installers remove the old unit, set the new base and walls, connect the valve and clean up in a single visit. One customer, Jean S., wrote that it was "a great experience getting a brand new shower in just one day." Larger layouts or repairs behind the wall can add time, and we tell you that before work starts.

What is the Forever Valve?

It is the Samuel Mueller shower valve. According to the manufacturer it delivers twice the flow rate of standard valves, resists calcium buildup, and sits inside a leak proof sealed work box that protects the wall behind it. The valve sits behind the wall, so the sealed box is what keeps a small drip from becoming a stained ceiling below.

What does the Lifetime Warranty and Workmanship Guarantee cover?

Two things. The lifetime product warranty comes from the manufacturer of the system you choose, Samuel Mueller or BathWraps®, and American Shower Company backs its own installation with its workmanship guarantee. We can stand behind the installation because our installers are our own employees, trained on the systems we install, rather than subcontractors.

How much does it cost to replace a shower in Milwaukee, WI?

It depends on the system and the choices you make, so American Shower Company gives an exact price after a free in home consultation rather than a guess. Premium Samuel Mueller Systems and Signature BathWraps® Systems sit at different points for different budgets, and the footprint, the base profile, the door, the valve and any repairs behind the wall set the rest. Our Wisconsin shower replacement cost guide explains each factor, and the price you receive is accurate to the penny.

Which location serves Milwaukee homeowners?

Our Waukesha location at S17 W22655 Lincoln Ave serves Milwaukee, about 15 miles east of it, and can be reached at (414) 404 6730. Consultations are free, prices are accurate to the penny, and the work is done by our own employees rather than subcontractors, the same as in the Fox Valley.

Can you replace a cast iron tub in an old Milwaukee flat?

Yes. Milwaukee has the oldest housing we serve, and cast iron tubs in upper and lower flats are routine. The crew plans the route out of the building before the day starts, and a Samuel Mueller alcove tub or a Samuel Mueller or BathWraps® shower goes into the same space.

How hard is Milwaukee's water?

Moderately hard. Milwaukee Water Works treats Lake Michigan water and publishes a hardness of 137 mg/L, or 8.01 grains per gallon, with a range of 112 to 142 mg/L. That leaves mineral spots on glass and chrome over time. Samuel Mueller and BathWraps® walls are nonporous with no grout to hold scale, and the Forever Valve is designed by the manufacturer to resist calcium buildup.
