"Getting a walk in tub is expensive no matter who you use. My experience thus far is with installation only and I must say my install went great. It has been over a month and no issues with my tub so I cannot comment on repair process with American Standard."
"Steven was super helpful and kind throughout the whole process. Tim performed incredible handiwork. You wouldn't even know there was ever damage to the wall in the first place. Most importantly though, I felt that I could trust them in my home and with future work 100%. They are honest about their work and their pricing. I would definitely refer them to anyone and will use them in the future if the need/opportunity arises. Thank you all so much for the wonderful, seamless, and kind experience from the bottom of my heart."

"Superb work ethic and attention to detail. We hired them to do a family room addition, 2 bathroom renovation, relocate our main front door and added a deck. They also did the flooring throughout the upper level of our home, added a secondary exterior door next to our garage. A few highlights about these gentlemen… It is seldom to come across respectful, trustworthy, very easy to work with, efficient, committed to excellence, and very focused individuals, and they are just that and more! They come to work with huge smiles on their faces. They were very professional and provided communication throughout the entire project. They truly went above and beyond to make us happy. We are very grateful for their time and commitment to complete the project. We love these guys! We will definitely hire them again =)"

I will definitely hire him again and encourage anyone reading this review to call him."
Bathtub Replacement questions, answered by experts
The cost to replace a bathtub is $2,000 to $9,400.Whether you want to spruce up your bathroom or your existing bathtub is not functioning correctly, purchasing a new tub costs about $5,700 with installation. Prices depend on the type and size of the tub.
Installing a clawfoot tub with a minimum of 6 inches of clearance from surrounding walls allows ample room for the faucet and pipework, makes cleaning easier, and reduces the chance of moisture being trapped between the tub and the walls. It might need to be closer if the faucet comes directly out of the wall.
Installing a drop-in tub yourself is possible, especially if you’re replacing your existing tub with a new one of the same size. If you’re replacing a different type of tub, you’ll need to build the structure to hold the new drop-in tub and finish the exposed sides. The structure must be sturdy enough to hold the tub when it’s filled with water, and you’ll need to seal it. If any plumbing work is required, it’s best to call a licensed plumber who installs bathtubs.
If you have an alcove in your bathroom, you don’t necessarily need to install an alcove tub. You can choose a drop-in tub and fit the frame to the alcove. This allows you to get a more custom or spa-like look. Think cultured marble or tiling for the frame versus the simpler look of acrylic or fiberglass with an alcove tub.
