        "text": "A complete shower installation generally ranges from a basic replacement to high-end custom builds depending on materials, structural modifications, and plumbing needs. Prefabricated acrylic or fiberglass units represent the most budget-friendly tier, while custom tile, frameless glass enclosures, and built-in niches require more labor and specialty materials. Key cost drivers include moving the drain location, upgrading supply lines, repairing water-damaged framing discovered during tear-out, and premium fixtures like thermostatic shower valves. An on-site assessment provides an exact quote based on your specific layout and finish selections.",
