"Nate- Atl & Hubter- Atl. were very professional and efficient with the tear out and installation of our new bathtub. They communicated each of the steps with us and a full explanation before leaving. They arrived on time and finished earlier than I was expecting. Great job guys!"

"Roger and his crew did a fine job on this project, a very large bathroom in our building as well as related areas including electrical and painting and floor finishing. He supervised the work making almost daily visits to the job and he recommended a source for all of the materials, meeting us on a couple of occasions at the home center to make selections for the main project as well as some other work in other areas of the building . He was well organized, furnished regular payment requests, very well detailed, and finished the project well within the promised schedule. I would recommend him."

"We recently had our 2 bathrooms renovated by Ovation Restoration. We could not be more pleased with the outcome. These guys do lots of custom work for high end customers and the initial quote was well outside our budget. Rick Arnold discussed with us several options to help reduce the cost. He recommended some big box store options for cabinetry and other fixtures while still allowing us to have some custom tile work done for the Jacuzzi bathtub surround and master shower. The final quote for the remodel was not the lowest we received but was very competitive. We encountered a few bumps in the road and the project ended up taking a little longer than expected. All of the delays were outside the control of Ovation. During the renovation we developed a leak with a water control manifold that could not be repaired or replaced. Rick immediately contacted a reputable plumber and coordinated with them to schedule a complete re-pipe of our home on short notice. The re-piping resulted in several holes being cut in the walls throughout the house. Rick ensured that the walls were repaired and re textured without an additional charge to us. We also had a delay because one of the big box stores managed to â loseâ one of our vanities and had to reorder. Through all the delays Rick still managed to ensure that things that could be done were being taken care of. The most pleasant surprise of the project was the interaction we had with all the workers doing the remodel. They were always on time, were very professional, and kept us updated on the progress. Many times they worked through the lunch hour. At the end of each day they cleaned up the area. We were impressed at the attention to detail each worker had and their desire for quality results. We would like to single out Josh (the demolition guy) and Jason. Josh in particular had great attention to detail and kept us continually updated of the progress. Jason is a master tile layer. His insight into helping us decide the layout for the shower and surround walls was paramount in our satisfaction with the final results. We will definitely contact Rick and Ovation Restoration for our next project. The final cost for the project matched the initial quote despite some minor modifications. Thank you Rick and all the folks at Ovation for transforming our bathrooms into something we are proud of!"

"The remodel went great! We just had Abraham and his awesome team over to my mothers house to take out her bathtub and install a walk-in shower with grab bars and it turned out fantastic. We had My Construction Group a week ago totally gut out our kitchen and now it’s fabulous! They also helped us update our bathrooms. Their work is clean, they are on time and very professional and kind. Demo for all projects were done quickly and debris was removed right away. We would definitely recommend My Construction Group to anyone thinking of a remodel or update. You will be pleased, we are!"

"After meeting with around 10 contractors, I decided to go with EA Homebuilders. Eric seemed honest and willing to do our remodeling the way we wanted it done. Great decision. Eric, Hector and crew were courteous and finished the job in the time they said it would be done, less than a month. We love our new bath/ shower. Highly recommend and would use again."

Bathtub Replacement questions, answered by experts

There are several ways to save money on a bathroom remodel through proper planning and savvy design strategies. To reduce costs, consider the following:

  • Purchase your own materials: Buy your own bathroom fixtures, hardware, and other materials to avoid contractor upcharges and delivery fees.

  • Shop smart for big-ticket items: Save on pricey items like tiles and tubs by shopping sales and at discount stores.

  • Avoid major layout changes: Keep plumbing in its current location. Opt to replace fixtures rather than moving them to avoid significant renovation work.

  • Focus on high-impact, low-cost updates: Make affordable but impactful smaller changes, such as upgrading hardware, installing new lighting, and adding stylish but economical accessories.

  • DIY where possible: Handle easier parts of the remodel yourself, like painting or installing light fixtures, to save on labor costs.

  • Time your remodel strategically: Consider remodeling in the spring, which tends to be a lower-demand time of year and may result in lower costs.

Whether replacing a bathtub with a shower affects your home's value depends on several factors, with the most significant being whether it's the only tub in the house. Removing the sole bathtub can lower a home's value because many prospective buyers, particularly families with young children or pets, require at least one.

However, a tub-to-shower conversion can also increase home value. A modern walk-in shower is often seen as an upgrade in a secondary bathroom and can be a desirable feature for its accessibility and style, appealing to older homebuyers or those without children. The overall impact is also influenced by your local real estate market and its typical buyer demographic.

If your bathroom layout allows, installing both a freestanding bathtub and a separate shower can be an ideal solution that appeals to the widest range of potential buyers.

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.

Roman tubs are very different from ordinary tubs. A Roman tub is typically deeper and broader than a traditional tub, and it's often installed on a custom platform with the faucet positioned on the deck rather than on the wall. Ordinary tubs are more shallow and usually feature built-in shower options. 

Acrylic bathtubs can last up to 30 years without major issues if they receive the right care and maintenance. They can last even longer but might scratch or stain as they age. The expected longevity is a major factor when investing in a new tub. Cast-iron tubs are the longest-lasting option.
