"Jose personally contacted me immediately after I submitted the job request. He was very professional and courteous. He told me his earliest availability and set an arrival window. True to his word, he called 30 minutes prior to arrival. He cleared the clogged line and told me what he found. My toilet and bathtub are working like new. Payment was very simple. I’m big on professional and service relationships. Jose will be my family’s plumber going forward."

"Getting a walk in tub is expensive no matter who you use. My experience thus far is with installation only and I must say my install went great. It has been over a month and no issues with my tub so I cannot comment on repair process with American Standard."

"Two gas burner knobs were frozen and needed to be replaced. The gas supply line was turned off and the entire unit was removed from the counter top. Disassembled the top cover and removed contents then replaced the needed parts and reassembled then tested and all four burners were working fine. Cleaned unit and removed all trash. Great service!"

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.

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.

The water supply lines run underneath the bathtub. These two pipes deliver cold and hot water to the bathtub—the cold water comes from the main water supply, and the hot water comes from the water heater. The pipes are made from copper, cream-colored plastic CPVC, or red and blue PEX tubing.

Regular cleaning, immediate leak repairs, and avoiding abrasive cleaners to maintain the finish.

You can put a structure under your bathtub for support. Many modern tubs come with a built-in support structure underneath. Almost any type of mortar or floor-leveling compound is acceptable for new bathtubs that don’t include a support structure.

You can also install spray foam under an existing bathtub to eliminate or reduce squeaking or sagging. However, spray foam isn’t rigid enough for primary tub support.
