Walk-In Shower Installation in Matthews, NC
Walk-in showers are the single most requested bathroom upgrade we install in Matthews. Done right, they're a waterproofing project first and a tile project second — which is exactly why so many of them fail within a few years when they're rushed.

What walk-in showers looks like in Matthews
Many Matthews bathrooms — especially in Downtown Matthews, Sardis Woods — were framed with a standard alcove tub in mind, so a walk-in usually means reworking the drain, the curb and sometimes the joists. We assess that before quoting so the number you get is the number you pay.
Homes of that vintage sit in an awkward spot: too new to be considered historic, old enough that everything mechanical is now past its service life. In Matthews we're regularly replacing polybutylene supply lines discovered mid-project, upgrading panels that can't carry a modern bathroom's load, and reworking bathrooms whose layouts made sense when the house had one shared bath and now don't. We look for those issues during the consultation instead of at demolition, because finding a polybutylene line on day one of a fixed-price job is exactly the kind of surprise that wrecks a schedule. Mature tree canopy here also means storm and roof calls after every serious wind event.

What clients say
Recent feedback from Matthews and nearby communities.
“They spotted polybutylene supply at the consultation and priced the replacement as a line item up front. Every other bid would have hit us with that mid-project. That honesty won the job.”
“We manage 40+ doors. STRYDE keeps our paint spec on file, so every unit matches and touch-ups never flash. Three-day turns, consistently, and one invoice per property.”
“Roll-in shower, widened doorway and blocking for grab bars so my father can stay in his home. They thought about turning radius and lighting without me having to ask.”
Walk-In Showers in Matthews — common questions
Can any Matthews bathroom take a curbless shower?
Not every one. A curbless entry needs recessed framing or a floor build-up. We look at the joist direction and subfloor first and give you a straight answer before you commit.
How long does the install take?
A tub-to-walk-in conversion is typically seven to twelve working days including cure and glass lead time.
Do you flood-test?
Always. The pan is flood-tested and documented before a single tile is set.
