Why BCI Acrylic is Our Go-To for Beautiful, Durable Apple Valley Bathrooms

Thinking about remodeling your bathroom, but dreading weeks of demo, mess, and expense? We get it.
That’s why, at Signature Home Services, we use BCI Acrylic for most of our bathroom transformations. It’s the perfect mix of good looks, durability, and easy maintenance.
And the best part? Most installations are done in just one day.
Got you hooked?
Let’s walk through the details, clear up some common myths, and show you why our Apple Valley clients love this material as much as we do.
The Problem With Traditional Tile
Tile looks great when it’s new, but it takes a lot of time and money to install. Then, years down the road, you’re stuck with crumbling grout lines, stains, mold, and chips.
And if you want to avoid all that, you normally would have to spend hours cleaning the bathroom to keep it looking as clean as possible.
Sound familiar? You’re not alone. That’s why so many homeowners are looking for an alternative that looks just as beautiful, but without all the maintenance headaches.
So, What Is BCI Acrylic?
BCI Acrylic is a premium, non-porous acrylic material made specifically for bathroom wet areas. Think shower walls, tub surrounds, and walk-in systems.
It’s not fiberglass. It’s not a flimsy “cover-up.”
We’re talking about solid, custom-fit wall panels that are manufactured to your exact space and professionally installed to give your bathroom a completely new look, without the need to tear everything down to the studs.
Here’s Why We Love It (and Why You Will Too):
1. Fast Installation
This is a big one. Because BCI Acrylic is custom-fit to your bathroom, we can usually install your new tub or shower surround in just one day. That means:
- No messy tile work
- No long project delays
- No giving up your bathroom for a week
Just a quick, clean remodel and you're back to your routine.
2. No Grout, No Mold, No Scrubbing
If you’ve ever tried to scrub moldy grout, you already know...
BCI Acrylic panels are completely seamless and non-porous, so there are no joints or grout lines where mold, mildew, or soap scum can build up. Most of our customers just wipe it down with a soft cloth and go.
Quick and easy!
3. Built to Last
Alright, let's name off all the benefits.
Ready?
BCI Acrylic is:
- Crack-resistant
- Fade-resistant
- Non-porous
- Won’t peel or chip
- Backed by industry-leading warranties
It’s designed to stay beautiful and functional for decades, even in busy households.
4. Mold-Resistant by Design
Because it doesn’t absorb water like tile grout or porous stone, BCI Acrylic naturally prevents mold and mildew from forming. That’s a big win for indoor air quality and long-term cleanliness.
5. It Looks Amazing
Here’s the part most people don’t expect: BCI Acrylic doesn’t look or feel like plastic.
It comes in a huge range of colors, finishes, and textures - including patterns that mimic marble, stone, and tile. You can customize your space to match your home’s style without the price tag or maintenance of real stone.
Some of our Apple Valley clients' favorite styles include:
- White subway tile look (without the grout!)
- Calcutta or marble finishes
- Stone textures in grey or earth tones
- Sleek, modern matte colors
Want shelves, corner caddies, grab bars, or a bench?
We can do all of that too.
But Isn’t This Just a Cheap Overlay?
Nope. We hear this myth all the time, but it’s not true.
This isn’t a one-size-fits-all liner or a quick-fix cover-up. Each BCI Acrylic system is made to fit your specific bathroom layout, and installed with proper prep, sealing, and trim.
We’re also factory-trained installers, so everything we do is backed by manufacturer standards. This isn’t DIY - it’s professional, permanent, and done right.
Who Is This Right For?
BCI Acrylic is a perfect solution if:
- You want to replace an outdated tub or shower
- Your layout works fine but the surfaces are worn
- You’re tired of scrubbing tile grout
- You need a fast and reliable remodel with less mess
It's also ideal for homeowners looking for accessible bathroom upgrades, like low-barrier showers or built-in seating.
