My tub cracked and I need to replace it. I'm installing a new Delta 500 series deepsoak bathtub and the Bootz NexTile prefab shower wall system with molded subway tiles and a built in storage niche that you don't have to alter any framing for! No sponsored products in this build, just cool stuff I'm excited to share

MODERN BUILDS
Hi, My name is Mike Montgomery and I'm a MAKER; a designer, builder, and full-time content creator. Accessibility is my focus with Modern Builds, not simply accessibility of designs, but accessibility in materials, information, and projects themselves. I've focused on creating furniture and DIY projects that are simple enough that any beginner maker can accomplish, yet interesting enough that any expert might be inspired. Building and making is becoming less and less of an exclusive hobby and profession. My goal is to reduce that separation even further.
This Shower wall has Built in storage w/ no framing alterations necessary!
