That's a fair question. Bath Fitter and Mad City Bath are well-known bathroom remodeling companies, and tile contractors have been around forever. But not every bathroom system is built the same. Before you choose, compare the differences that matter most.

Minnetonka spans two distinct housing eras — 1960s and 70s ranch homes and split-levels near Ridgedale with original tile bathrooms that have been losing their caulk seal for years, and newer executive builds near Lake Minnetonka that need premium finishes to match the kitchen and master suite. Both are ideal for Onyx. The accessible shower option is the same system — custom-fabricated solid surface, just configured for safer entry instead of luxury aesthetics.
Minnetonka's established neighborhoods have a significant population of long-term homeowners planning ahead for aging in place. Low-threshold Onyx shower entries, grab-bar-ready wall backing, and built-in seats are available in the same premium finishes as the luxury line — no compromise on aesthetics for accessibility.
Minnetonka's housing stock breaks cleanly into two categories that drive two different bathroom remodeling conversations. The first is the wave of 1960s and 70s ranch homes and split-levels built around Ridgedale and the established Minnetonka neighborhoods — well-built homes with original tile bathrooms that have reached the end of their functional life. The second is the wave of executive builds and newer construction near Lake Minnetonka and the western corridors — homes where the kitchen was remodeled, the floors are hardwood, the landscaping is professional, and the bathroom is a builder-grade afterthought that hasn't kept up with the rest of the house. Both are natural Onyx customers, for different reasons.
The older Minnetonka ranch bathroom problem is structural. The tile looks intact. The grout, however, has been cracking and absorbing water for years — and water behind the wall surface is where the expensive repairs begin. Hidden moisture damage is common in 50-year-old tile bathrooms, and by the time it becomes visible it has usually been spreading for a decade. Onyx solid-surface panels replace the failing surface permanently. Custom-fabricated to fit the exact dimensions of your bathroom, installed over existing tile in many cases, with no grout lines for water to penetrate. The failure cycle ends.
The newer Minnetonka home problem is aesthetic and quality-driven. Homeowners who have invested significantly in a kitchen remodel, hardwood floors, and landscaping find themselves with a master bathroom that features fiberglass surrounds or builder-grade tile that was never premium. Onyx delivers the step up without a gut renovation — custom stone-look and marble-pattern finishes, non-porous surface, seamless installation. It doesn't look like a product from a home improvement store. It looks like a bathroom that belongs in a Minnetonka home that has been maintained and upgraded with care.
Minnetonka's aging-in-place market is also significant. Long-term homeowners in established neighborhoods — many of whom purchased in the 1970s and 80s and have no intention of leaving — are planning ahead for mobility changes. Accessible shower upgrades with low-threshold Onyx entries, grab-bar-ready wall backing, and built-in seats are among the most requested projects in the western suburbs right now. Critically, Onyx accessible showers are available in the same premium finishes as the luxury line. Dignity and aesthetics are not compromised for accessibility.
Minnesota Bath Renewal provides Onyx Collection shower replacement, tub-to-shower conversion, full bathroom renovation, accessible shower installation, Onyx tub surrounds, and premium vanity and fixture upgrades throughout Minnetonka and the surrounding Lake Minnetonka corridor including Wayzata, Plymouth, Eden Prairie, Hopkins, Deephaven, Orono, Shorewood, Chanhassen, and Excelsior. High-end stone-look and marble-pattern Onyx finishes are available for homes that require premium materials. Every project starts with a free in-home consultation.
Yes. Onyx Collection is available in a wide range of finishes — clean white, marble-look patterns, stone-look surfaces, and more — suitable for premium Minnetonka homes that have already been upgraded in the kitchen and other areas. We bring a full sample set to your home during the free in-home consultation so you can compare finishes directly against your existing flooring, cabinetry, and fixtures before making any commitment. The finish you select is then custom-fabricated to fit your exact space.
Onyx Collection is a non-porous solid surface — custom-fabricated to your exact bathroom dimensions, with no grout lines anywhere on the wall surface, no crevices for mold, and a lifetime warranty. Large-format tile, even premium large-format tile, still has grout lines at every seam and at the floor junction. Those grout lines require cleaning, re-sealing, and eventual re-grouting. Over time, they stain and support mold growth. For Minnetonka homeowners who want a genuinely low-maintenance premium bathroom, Onyx is the stronger long-term investment — and the custom fabrication means it fits the space correctly rather than being cut to approximate dimensions.
Yes. We install low-threshold Onyx shower entries, grab-bar-ready solid wall backing, built-in Onyx bench seats, handheld showerhead options, and curbless-style entries throughout Minnetonka and the Lake Minnetonka corridor. Accessible shower upgrades are available in the same premium Onyx finishes as our luxury line — there is no institutional look to choose from, and no compromise on aesthetics for accessibility. We discuss all accessible options during the free in-home consultation. See all accessible shower options →
A complete bathroom renovation in Minnetonka — including floor tile, vanity, fixtures, and Onyx shower walls — typically runs three to five days of installation depending on scope. A shower replacement or tub-to-shower conversion with Onyx is typically one to two days. Onyx custom fabrication takes three to four weeks after the order is placed, so the total project timeline from consultation to finished bathroom is generally four to six weeks. We work in occupied homes and keep the project area clean throughout installation.
Shower replacements with Onyx Collection typically start in the $3,000–$5,000 range. Full bathroom renovations vary based on layout, finish selections, vanity, fixtures, and overall scope — premium stone-look and marble-pattern finishes are available at additional cost. We provide written, itemized quotes after a free in-home consultation — no estimates over the phone. Financing is available for qualified homeowners. The consultation is free, the quote is written, and there is no obligation.
