"The kitchen and bathroom look great! We had kitchen countertops that, although solid, we’re out of date. Surface Drs. save them from the landfill! They look fantastic! Our 3/4 bath was painted as well. It looks fantastic!!"

"Don and Carol came out and priced the entire bathroom. The scope was reduced and Don re-estimated. Project Scope: New Bathtub and Remove/Replace Ceramic Floor Tile. Ken did work; I was not present to interface with Ken, but Don was available to report progress/ask questions daily. Final Outcome: Excellent."

"Frank was a pleasure to work with as were his carpenter Chris and painter Tim. They were all professional and great problem solvers when issues occurred. We were very happy with the final result and considering the number of cabinets involved, probably saved at least $40,000-$60,000 over replacing them with new cabinets."

"Helping my mom update her bathroom was something I took very seriously. She?s getting older, and her old bathtub was becoming difficult ? and honestly unsafe ? for her to use. We decided to convert it into a walk-in shower and upgrade the fixtures to better suit her needs. Century City Baths made the entire process feel reassuring from start to finish. The installation team was wonderful. They treated my mom?s home with respect, worked carefully, and kept everything clean and organized. The workmanship is excellent ? everything feels sturdy, well-installed, and thoughtfully placed. What means the most to me is the peace of mind. My mom can now use her bathroom safely and comfortably, and she actually enjoys the space again. It?s bright, modern, and designed with her needs in mind."

"Top Bros Construction was a clear choice for our construction project. We needed to find a crew to replace our floors with hardwood and update the bathroom. Too many of the guys we talked to only did floors which would leave us with other projects to coordinate including baseboards and the bathroom. Cesar, family and crew did it all. Not only did they do it all, but they took pride in their work and craftsmanship and the end product shows. Not only are we happy with the result, but they minimized the disruption we experienced in the process. Cesar let us know well in advance when we should be out of the house, and what to expect and when. When his team encountered the inevitable snag, like the refrigerator no longer fitting, they came up with creative options, explained them clearly and let us decide what was best for us. This allowed the project to move forward on time and on budget. There was some confusion about the final invoice, and Cesar was receptive, empathetic, and flexible to make sure we were all happy. We’ll be reaching out the Top Bros construction again."

"Very happy with the Bathroom Boys. We had them remodel our master bath and guest bath. They kept the work areas clean and each bathroom took less than 3 weeks. All new tile looks amazing. We also made some changes along the way and they were able to accommodate with reasonable pricing. Highly recommend."

"The work on shower replacement was fabulous. The workers were very competent and they completed the shower in one day. We had a problem with the shower head and they came back the next morning to fix the problem."

Bathtub Replacement questions, answered by experts

Different bathtub materials have various advantages and disadvantages. Cast iron and copper are considered the most durable materials because they are dense and resistant to damage from scratches or dents. However, cast-iron tubs are heavy, expensive, and may not be suitable for upper floors. Copper offers unique benefits but requires regular chemical treatment to prevent a patina from forming, making cast iron a less maintenance-intensive option. Porcelain is a good second choice for durability. For those on a budget, acrylic is a popular option, though it is less durable.

Persistent leaks, outdated styles, or surface damage are indicators for a replacement.

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.

A chipped bathtub could leak over time if you don’t take care of the issue. A tiny chip isn’t a big deal but may eventually grow into a larger crack. As the months go by, the tub’s barrier against moisture becomes weakened, making it prone to leaking. Large chips can also cause the tub to rust and even crack in half.

Of the two most common and affordable bathtub materials, acrylic is notably better. Though fiberglass is cheaper, it is also more prone to scratching, chipping, fading, and cracking. Acrylic holds up better to wear and tear, cleaning, and sun exposure; the slight cost increase is usually worth the increased longevity.
