What Matters Most

  • Shugarman's Bath has 3 pricing tiers: Refresh ($12,500 to $16,000), Elevate ($16,001 to $22,000), and Indulge ($22,001+). Materials, tub and shower area size, and accessories are what move a project from one tier to the next.
  • Every remodel includes down-to-the-studs demolition, highly trained employee installers, and a lifetime warranty on labor and materials.
  • The contracts in this article are real, signed agreements with every line item listed. We're showing them so you know what to expect before you ever sit down with a designer.

Knowing how much to pay for your tub or shower remodel is a pain when you can never seem to get a reliable number or range. It would be nice to know what your money gets you, what accessories you can add, whether the quoted price is normal, or if there’s a better option for your space.

After completing more than 6,500 tub and shower remodels, Shugarman’s Bath has learned that every bathroom and shower remodel is unique. This means every price is different. We want you to understand the pricing you can expect to see and why, based on real contracts with homeowners.

In this article, you'll see where our pricing falls, what each tier includes, the accessories that come with it, and look at signed contracts behind each one. Whether or not you choose Shugarman’s Bath, we want you to walk into your consultation knowing what to expect.

For privacy, we only show the itemized materials list from each contract. No personal customer information is included.

What Are the Shugarman’s Bath Shower Remodel Pricing Tiers?

Tub and shower remodels at Shugarman’s Bath fall into one of 3 price tiers:

  • Refresh - This tier runs from $12,500 to $16,000 and covers 56% of all Shugarman’s Bath remodels. This is a clean, plain, low-maintenance remodel with a custom accessory or two. It typically has a basic sliding door or curtain rod.
  • Elevate - This tier runs from $16,001 to $22,000 and covers 36% of all Shugarman’s Bath remodels. You’ll see more style in your tub and shower area with patterned or colored walls, shower seating, a niche, and two showerheads for versatility.
  • Indulge - This tier is for projects that cost $22,001+ and covers 8% of Shugarman’s Bath remodels. You’ll see this price range for larger tub-and-shower spaces. This is designed to be luxurious and built to impress.

For any tier you choose, the quality of work never changes. Every remodel includes a down-to-the-studs demolition, highly trained employee installers, and a lifetime warranty on both labor and materials.

Regardless of the tier your project falls into, Shugarman’s Bath offers financing to make your remodel affordable.

What Can You Expect from a Refresh Tier Shower Remodel?

Contract 1 — November 2025 | $12,663

This remodel includes a soaker tub with a scalloped soap dish wall and a matte black finish throughout the fixtures. It comes with a niche for storage and a complimentary shower rod.

  • Soaker tub, 60" x 32" x 19", linear skirt, left-hand drain, white
  • Scalloped soap dish wall (x1)
  • Small wall up to 35", smooth, matte white (x2)
  • Speakman Neo shower pressure-compensating trim kit, matte black

  • Straight shower rod, 44"-72", matte black, complimentary tension rod

Before starting this remodel, a different contractor had already demoed the bathroom down to the studs, removed the soffit, and left some damage to the ceiling. That's why the space looks different in the before photo than a typical Shugarman's Bath project at this stage. Our team worked with what was already torn out and finished the job from there.

If you’re wondering why it looks like there’s damage in the after photos, it’s because the ceiling and floor repair weren't part of this contract. Shugarman's Bath rebuilt and finished the tub and shower area itself and didn’t take on work outside that space.
