"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!"

"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!"

"Was a very smooth experience from start to finish. From the initial contact person, to the person that came to my home to scope out the work, to the supervisor for the job to the two guys doing the work. All were very good at their jobs. I just needed to have the cracked tub surround replaced in a small bathroom and wasn't sure that anyone would want to do that small of a job. They were up front from the start that if they were going to do the work that they would also need to replace the plumbing as they would not take the chance of doing work with leaking plumbing behind it. I then also decided to have a the soffit above the shower (from a previous owner's remodel job) removed which added a lot of work to remove the framing and install ceiling dry wall, making the job much more complicated. I told them that my biggest requirement was going to be that if I was going to pay for someone to do something that I could do myself that when it was finished I expected it to look much better than what I could have done. When it was done they exceeded that goal greatly and every day now I notice some other small detail that the nailed perfect."

"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

The most common type of tub is the alcove; most bathtubs are shower and tub combinations. Many suburban homes feature these as the default option because they allow the flexibility for users to take a bath or a shower—a notable benefit for those with pets and young kids.

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. 

Labor is the most expensive part of a bathroom remodel. If you’re doing a major remodel, structural changes (such as moving walls) and plumbing reconfiguration can be costly. For a standard remodel, the big-ticket items include tiles and new tub or shower fixtures.

The diverter valve in your bathtub is responsible for diverting water between your tub spout and your shower head. If water comes out of both at the same time, you have a faulty diverter valve. You can have a plumber replace this for you, or you can replace it yourself if you have some experience working with plumbing fixtures.

You should consider replacing your bathtub if the tub—or any potential refinishing—is older than about 20 years old. However, acrylic and fiberglass bathtubs have a shorter lifespan (about 10 to 15 years). You may decide to replace your bathtub sooner if there are stains or mold you can’t get rid of, no matter how much you clean it, or if you find leaks and cracks that could lead to costly water damage.
