The bathroom is the most heavily trafficked room in any residence, and a dated or leaking shower can undermine both comfort and resale value. CountBricks specializes in louisville shower replacement, combining deep construction expertise with AI-driven estimating software to give homeowners and trade partners absolute clarity on cost, timeline, and material selections.
• Voice-activated takeoffs let you describe your current shower, and our AI instantly converts that description into square footage, fixture counts, and labor hours.
• Live pricing pulls current local costs for tile, glass, plumbing valves, and waterproof membranes so your budget reflects today’s market—not last quarter’s average.
• You receive a shareable PDF quote within minutes, complete with optional upgrades and detailed scope notes that align with Louisville building codes.

2. AI-powered estimate: CountBricks software translates that mock-up into a fixed-cost proposal. No guesswork, no hidden fees.
3. Material procurement: Our supplier network is synced with our platform, so tile, fixtures, and glass arrive just as demolition wraps.
4. Certified installation: CountBricks-vetted crews follow TCNA and UPC guidelines, ensuring flawless waterproofing, precise tile lines, and code-compliant plumbing.

• Frameless glass enclosures create an open, modern look while boosting perceived square footage.
• Low-threshold entries improve accessibility for aging-in-place renovations.
• Bench seats and recessed niches add spa-level comfort without increasing overall footprint.
• Matte black, brushed gold, and classic chrome fixtures are stocked locally to avoid long lead times.
• Existing conditions: Replacing a fiberglass insert with tile typically adds 12-18 labor hours for substrate prep.
• Plumbing relocations: Moving the valve or drain more than six inches requires permit-level work and additional inspections.
• Glass complexity: Neo-angle or custom-curved panels cost more than standard inline sliders due to fabrication precision.
• Finish level: Porcelain tile starts around $6 per sq ft locally, while imported marble can exceed $20.
• Integrated Gantt chart scheduling auto-assigns trade crews the moment you approve your estimate.
• Daily progress photos are uploaded to your portal, giving you remote oversight whether you’re at work or out of town.
• Variance alerts flag any scope changes instantly, so you can approve or decline additional work before it begins.

• Choose a single large niche instead of multiple small ones to reduce grout lines and labor.
• Opt for epoxy grout in high-humidity Louisville climates—it resists staining far better than cementitious mixes.
• Install a pressure-balanced valve to maintain water temperature if someone flushes elsewhere in the house.
• Add blocking in walls during rough-in to support future grab bars.
• Select low-iron glass for crystal-clear edge visibility on light-colored tile.

When the owners of a 1920s Highlands bungalow found water stains on their kitchen ceiling, they knew the upstairs alcove shower was failing. CountBricks stepped in to diagnose, estimate, and rebuild—without disrupting their historic home’s charm.
• Scope: Remove 36" fiberglass insert and install custom 48" tile shower with frameless glass door
• Timeline: 7 working days, including two inspection checkpoints
• Budget: $11,450 all-in, generated by CountBricks AI within 7 minutes of the initial call
1. Tight staircase access made debris removal difficult. CountBricks crews cut the insert into panels to prevent drywall damage.
2. Original plumbing was galvanized steel. We upgraded to PEX with a new pressure-balanced valve, adding only $320 thanks to real-time material pricing.
3. Homeowners requested a vintage look. Our design team sourced 3" hex floor tile and subway wall tile, both stocked locally to avoid delays.
• Water damage halted and ceiling repairs limited to a single 2'×2' drywall patch
• Shower footprint gained 12% more standing room without moving walls
• Post-project satisfaction survey scored 98% on timeline, cleanliness, and communication
• AI accuracy: The final invoice matched the original CountBricks estimate within 0.8%, proving the reliability of our pricing engine.
• Speed to start: Demolition began 48 hours after permit approval because materials were pre-ordered through our integrated supply chain.
• Historic sensitivity: CountBricks crews are trained to protect lath-and-plaster walls, hardwood floors, and original trim while upgrading wet areas to modern standards.
