"Fast, professional install. Courteous and polite installers. Even put coverings down on floor and stairs from front door to bathroom. The new shower makes the bathroom look bigger and brighter. The new shower is so much safer and bigger than standing in the old narrow tapered tub. Everyone that sees it loves it."
"We hired Premier Home Pros to convert a tub into a walk-in shower in our Center City condominium. Most contractors that we contacted would not do this job in a condominium complex. The work took approximately 13 hours and we were very pleased with the result. The team doing the work was led by Peter who was very polite, knowledgeable, and helpful and saw to it that a thorough cleanup was done at the conclusion of the job. We have no hesitation in recommending them."
"Great job by Total Mechanical Systems repairing/replacing old faucets on my tub/shower that would not stop the running water. Their tech, Joe, was friendly and professional. The problem is solved, I am very happy after this experience."
"Kyle installed our walk-in shower and did a fantastic job. It was a very long day for him due to an issue with our plumbing, but he remained positive and kept working methodically to complete the job. He was professional and pleasant during his many trips to and from our 3rd floor bathroom. And, we are very happy with the shower. It looks and works great."
"Brian came to our home to do a tub to shower installation. He was very respectful and reviewed what he would be doing. The project was completed within the time frame we were told. Again, he reviewed what he had done and how to properly care for the shower. It really looks great and we are looking forward to using it. Thank you Brian and rite window team. Respectfully Leslie Greeley Brewster Ma"
"I highly recommend Five Star Bath Solutions to anyone considering a bathroom remodel. From the very beginning, their team was professional, knowledgeable, and easy to work with. They took the time to understand what we wanted. The quality of the workmanship was outstanding, although they ran into a few plumbing issues which caused a delay in finishing in two days, Eric Sokol the General Manager explained the issue and he and Sal the installer worked diligently to adjust and complete the installation. At all times, Eric and Sal were courteous, respectful of my home, and paid attention to every detail. My new bathroom looks beautiful, modern, and feels like a completely new space. If you are looking for a company that provides excellent customer service, high-quality products, and dependable work, Five Star Bath Solutions is a great choice. We would absolutely use them again and confidently recommend them to family and friends. Jame & JoAnn"

I would recommend this plumbing company to anyone in need Thank you Instaplumbing and all the staff who helped! Dayna C"
