"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."

"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."

"The project involved replacing an old tub with a walk-in shower. New floor, updated plumbing valve, body sprays, handheld shower, and a custom glass door were all installed. Everything was done cleanly and with attention to detail. The shower looks great and functions far better than before."

"We've been living in our home for about five years, and the bathroom was one of those projects we kept saying we'd eventually get around to. The old bathtub and shower were still usable, but they were definitely showing their age and didn't really match the way we wanted our home to look anymore. We finally decided it was time to replace our old bathtub and shower. Century City Baths made the process easy, and the installation turned out beautifully. Our bathroom feels fresh, modern, and so much more comfortable now!"

"I love my new bathroom! Jack's team did an amazing job on my bathroom and laundry room and because I was so happy with their work, I added on additional small jobs along the way. The main review is for the bathroom though. Jack gave me the original estimate; the plan was to replace everything: tub, toilet, vanity, sink, mirror and all fixtures. The price was very reasonable. Jack came out to go over all the measurements with me and give me all the specifications I needed for ordering my materials. This made it very easy for me to make sure I didn't order something that wasn't right for the space. I then picked out and ordered everything I wanted and spent time making sure it all fit with the look I wanted. Once I received all my deliveries, I called Jack and he set up a day to start which we had already sort of planned at the beginning of the process. I knew the longest delivery time would be about 4 weeks, so that's what we planned on.  The first day was demolition. The next couple days were installation and plumbing, then the tile, then the finishes. I can't say enough how beautiful the entire bathroom looks. The tile work is perfect. Michael did an amazing job and consulted me if he had any questions about design. Paul did such a great job with installing everything, and this may sound silly, but even the caulk looks so nice, mainly because it is clear caulk and virtually invisible. The walls were prepared completely beforehand and I think it makes a real difference then with the end product. I ordered the vanity from a big box store with added panels and molding so it could be customized to fit against the wall and Paul did a great job of cutting everything to size and working with the materials. It looks custom made for the space.  The only hitch in the completion was my fault, as I forgot to call the wallpaperer to come out, so we had to wait a few days before it was all complete. But if that hadn't happened I know it would have all been done in the one week Jack had originally quoted.  Every day the guys came early or on time. At the end of every day, they would completely clean up and then tell me the plan for the next day. If there was ever more than one way to do/place something, they would ask me how I wanted it first. They were so polite and pleasant to work with. I have no reservations recommending them or hiring them for my next project!"

Bathtub Replacement questions, answered by experts

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.

We don’t recommend using a tub liner to cover up cracks in a bathtub. Instead, you should repair the cracks yourself if you have the experience or hire a pro. Cracks may seem like small surface imperfections, but they can lead to much larger issues, so repair them as soon as you can.

Installing a walk-in bathtub can be worth it if it improves the user's safety and independence. However, because walk-in tubs require a large investment, not every homeowner has the means or desire to install one. As an alternative, some homeowners prefer to install a walk-in shower and transfer bench instead. Walk-in showers cost between $1,150 and $8,000, making them far more budget-friendly in comparison.

In some cases, people are getting rid of bathtubs because of the floor space they gain after removal. Showers can make more efficient use of bathroom space. In some cases, people get rid of tubs for accessibility purposes. It can be difficult for some individuals to step into and out of a tub. For these people, a shower with no lip or step is safer and easier to use than a tub.

Alcove tubs come in fiberglass, acrylic, or enameled steel. Fiberglass is the most affordable but least durable, while acrylic is the highest-end and most durable (as long as you don’t go with a poor grade of acrylic, which will be prone to scratches). Enameled steel, where a steel tub is coated in a layer of porcelain, is a wallet-friendly middle ground. This material is highly durable but prone to chips.
