"Walter was easy and great to work with. We had a water leak in our first floor ceiling and we had 3 different plumbers come out to diagnose the cause and none of them could figure it out. Walter was the only one able to diagnose the problem. Turns out the pipe supplying cold water to the upstairs shower was leaking in the drywall. Unfortunately that drywall is between a shower and bath tub. So the shower had to be replaced in the process of getting to the leaking pipe. Even when we weren’t certain replacing the shower was the right move, Walter was patient with us and was not pushy. They replaced shower, fixed the leaking pipe and repaired the drywall of the first floor celing. The job was completed in a day and half."

"The installer showed up on time and went straight to work. We discussed a couple of issues he ran into and these were resolved to my satisfaction. It's been a few motnhs since the bathtub was removed and the new shower installed. There have been no problems."

"We love our new bathtub, surround and shower doors! Don and Carol came out to give us a price and two weeks later we had a beautiful bathroom. Ken the installer was very professional and very meticulous in his work. He was awesome and did a fantastic job. He always arrived on time and cleaned up very well. We are very happy with Bathcrest of Chicago!"

  • Let me start by saying that Frank is a perfectionist and everyone that works for and with him is the same way.  We had previously used G&G to reface our kitchen cabinets and knew the standard of Frank's work.  Our master bathroom was outdated with a prefab shower, Jacuzzi tub and cherry cabinets.  We wanted everything taken out in order to modernize the whole room.  Frank offered many suggestions and we used most of them - turn the toilet around, get rid of the big built in tub and replace it with a free standing soaking tub (which is gorgeous!), and full length glass walls in the shower.  Chris and Robert executed those changes and everything was installed perfectly.  The work included:
  • - demo of the room

- rebuilding the shower stall from scratch, including tiling the floor of the shower and 2 of the walls, installing new fixtures and a niche  in the wall. An outside vendor installed the glass on the other 2 walls.
- turned the toilet around so it was in a better location.
- removed Jacuzzi tub, which included removal of all the piping related to it and reinstallation of plumbing for new free standing  tub. This tub also has a free standing faucet fixture which included a hand held shower.
- tiled the floor and base board.
- installed a double vanity which included approx. 5' towers on either end. Granite vanity top with undermount sinks, new plumbing fixtures, lights and mirrors (these were custom made by the glass company).  Let me comment that all of the electrical work and plumbing were done prior to receiving the cabinet.  Robert did all of this work off of the diagram and everything lined up perfectly once the cabinets were installed.
- painted walls and woodwork.
Frank was in constant contact with us during the project and stopped in to see how things were progressing.  There were no hidden costs and we paid Frank the amount he gave in his estimate.

"I had Ken and his crew come out in Dec. 2019 to install a new shower and replace two sink faucets in our primary bathroom. They did a great job. We did need a little warranty work done recently and they sent out a service technician who did what we asked courteously and professionally. I love a company that stands behind their work and Prime Baths in Coal City does just that. Will use them again as needed for sure."

"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."

"I take a lot of pride in my home, and as a fur mom, I need spaces that are both beautiful and practical. My bathroom was starting to feel outdated, so I decided it was time to upgrade the bathtub and replace the old fixtures. Century City Baths made the entire experience easy and enjoyable. The installation team was professional, respectful, and meticulous. They kept everything clean throughout the project and paid close attention to every detail. The new bathtub is comfortable and beautiful, while the updated fixtures instantly made the bathroom feel more polished and refreshed. Century City Baths transformed my bathroom into a space that feels stylish, comfortable, and perfectly suited to my lifestyle. I couldn't be happier with the result."

"The gentelmen replaced my leaking kitchen faucet. My faucet sets in a very narrow space, therefore the job is not easy. He worked hard to get the job done well. Afterwards, he cleaned the area and made sure there were no leaking everywhere. I appreciated his help much."

Bathtub Replacement questions, answered by experts

The time it takes to install a bathtub depends on the type of tub, the condition of the existing plumbing, and the installation's complexity. A new bathtub can be installed in four to eight hours. However, this can take longer if any additional plumbing work or bathroom modifications are needed.

The average cost to convert a tub to a shower is around $3,000, but prices can range from $1,000 to as high as $15,000. A more typical range is between $1,200 and $8,000. The final cost depends on several factors, including the amount of plumbing work required, the size of the shower, and the type of materials and fixtures chosen. A prefabricated shower stall is a more budget-friendly option, while a custom shower with features like luxury tiles, unique tiling, smart technology, or accessibility features will be at the higher end of the cost spectrum.

If your bathtub is in overall good shape with minor scratches, discoloration, or just general wear and tear, it's best (and less expensive) to refinish it. 

If your tub has large cracks, is leaking, or is otherwise severely damaged, we recommend replacing it with a new bathtub. Refinishing a bathtub can only fix superficial problems, so these issues will still be present or reappear after a refinishing.

Yes. Common materials for Roman tubs are acrylic, fiberglass, cast iron, and stone resin. The choice you make can depend on various factors, including weight, cost, durability, style, heat retention, and aesthetics. Ultimately, it really depends on your space to determine the best option.

While Medicare will pay for some bathroom modifications, it won’t pay for all modifications done to help make the room more accessible for older adults. Plus, the improvements must be approved in advance, or they won’t cover the upgrade. Check well in advance of construction if you have coverage for grab bars, walk-in tubs, wider doorways, higher toilets, and more.
