"Joe Heater and his assistance, Josh, did a very professional job replace my tub with a walk in shower. The shower is beautiful and looks very professional installed. Joe and Josh were both very polite, did not goof off, worked very hard for two days. My shower was larger than the average is the reason it took two days. They kept everything cleaned up as they went, no mess left behind. I highly recommend this company!!!"
"Barry Horton did an excellent job installing my tub and shower insert along with Garrett. Very professional and they made sure I was completely satisfied on everything before they left. I would recommend this company to anyone."
"We replaced our bathtub with a walk in shower, and are extremely happy with the work that was provided. In only took one person 6 hours to complete the job, and he was very professional and the quality of work was great. Would hire them again."
I have been working for my grandfather who builds custom homes and I have just started my own LLC and trying to get things going. I have my Alabama Home Builders License. I can do anything from small jobs like decks or replacing doors/ windows to big jobs like remodeling houses or building them from the ground up.
"They were very nice, but the with the credit of the big deal, I did not feel that $7200 for a bathtub installation was appropriate. I did not end up using or hiring this company."
"I highly recommend Sammy and his team. Apparently my house had settled which caused the underground mains to pull away, which damaged one of the 'jaws' on the incoming power lines inside the meter panel. As you should be aware, APCO owns everything from the pole/line in to the jaws, and you own from the jaws into your house. The electrician, Cruz was right on time and very pleasant to deal with. In our discussion, he was also highly qualified for the task and beyond. Unfortunately we had to wait close to 2 hours for the Alabama Power guy to get there... When the APCO guy got there and pulled the panel from the meter box it turned out that the third party APCO contractor went ahead and repaired the jaw, likely because it could be considered a safety/fire hazard. There was nothing for Cruz, the electrician to do. There was some previous legwork such as getting a permit, and scheduling time with APCO, so Sammy had some time and cost in it already. Sammy COULD have charged me the $100 for the permit, and $145 x 2 hours for a total of $390, but instead charged me for only one hour ($145). This kind of service just doesn't exist anymore. It was nobody's fault (except perhaps the fact that the APCO contractor did not relay these details to my account notes), but Sammy would have been justified in billing me the full amount because he had his guy out there for 2 hours, and then the time and $$ associated with getting a permit and scheduling with APCO. Thank you Sammy Rubin! I hope this review brings you more business because of the way you dealt with my problem. I will definitely recommend you to anyone I come across, and will use you for my next electrical need (the basement). God Bless!! "
"Serviced was performed. The technician and assistant arrived wearing masks. They were very polite and professional. He assessed the problem and provided me with two quotes: One, to unclog drain and repair garbage disposal. Two, unclog drain and replace garbage disposal. I chose the quote for a replacement. Service was performed rather quickly, within an hour after actual work was begun. I would definitely hire them again."
Bathtub Replacement questions, answered by experts
There are a few things you can do to keep your bathroom remodel as affordable as possible in your mobile home:
Ask your contractor to replace caulk and grout rather than retiling
Ask your professional to refinish your tub/shower rather than replacing
Upgrade your sink fixtures rather than replacing the sink
Upgrade cabinet hardware and ask your remodeler to refinish the cabinets
Avoid changing the layout of your bathroom
Start by gutting the old fixtures and features that need to be removed, such as the tile, vanity, and flooring. You may benefit by removing the toilet, even if you intend to use the same one. Next, install the new shower or tub, followed by the flooring, and then the drywall, which you should then paint. After that, install your new cabinets, vanity, countertop, sink, and faucet, in that order. Replace your light fixture next. Lastly, reconnect the toilet.
The cost of installing a new bathtub is considerably more expensive than refinishing an existing one, so if you’re looking to upgrade your tub on a budget, you might be better off refinishing it for now. Additionally, if your tub has only minor damage, refinishing it will make it look new again without the extra demolition and time.
What you include in your bathroom remodel will depend on your budget, personal preferences, and the current condition of your bathroom. Bathroom renovations often involve changing out the shower or tub, faucet, showerhead, tiles, flooring, mirrors, sink, cabinets, and vanities. You may also want to upgrade the wallcovering, adding new wallpaper or paint.
Yes, you can remove a bathtub yourself if you have previous DIY experience and basic plumbing knowledge. You should have at least one other person help you if you approach this project as a DIY. However, hiring a plumber or bathroom remodeling pro can prevent accidental damage from demolition or water leakage.
