Faced with a failing shower valve that a plumber claimed required a full unit replacement, we engineered a "surgical" back-access repair to avoid a total demolition. By accessing the plumbing through the rear wall and integrating a custom accent tile focal point, we replaced the valve and restored the shower's integrity while also providing a custom-stained oak stair tread replacement and interior trim repairs in the same visit. This high-efficiency project demonstrates our ability to solve complex plumbing challenges while checking off a homeowner's entire "Step Above" maintenance list in a single day.
