Default Contractor for walk in shower?

Anyone have recomendations? We're looking to replace a whirlpool tub with a slightly expanded walk in shower. I guess I need a good plumber and tile guy.

Reese Browne of Thunderchild Remodeling does great work. I just saw a job he did with small black and white tiles and the attention to detail was most apparent. Really impressive.

We are building a walk in shower now that has no walls. Just two drains, a slight slope in the floor, water is coming out of two rain shower heads from the ceiling.

I'll have photos soon. Cool stuff. We have also done one in the past with glass block that is on my web site.

Cool, I'll probably be in touch. We don't have a big enough area to do anything too exciting, and I'd love to do it myself, but the whole liner thing is a little intimidating to me. I'll shoot you an email to try to set up a time.
