"I recently had an emergency situation at my business. Construction was being done next-door and caused a lot of damage. I did a quick google search, desperately seeking help. Gisele was at my door within two hours. I was in tears from the sense of relief she gave me. I instantly trusted her and felt confident in her abilities. I even gave this stranger a big hug. It felt like an angel was sent to me. Her team came fully loaded not two days later. Honest to God not one stone was unturned. Literally. I have a little collection from my son. Walls, crevices, even my messy desk was completely dust free after they were done. So efficient too! What I thought was a multiple day job multiple people, these two women had done in 3 hours! And with humor along the way! I felt so comfortable with them right away. I do not trust easily when it comes to my photography gear. I can not thank this team enough. I have been singing their praises for days and will most definitely be using them again."
Bathtub Replacement questions, answered by experts
The order of your bathroom renovation should prevent damage to the completed work. Start with demolition and removing the old fixtures. Then, address structural repairs or water damage, if needed. Next, tackle the rough-in phase for plumbing and electrical work, install waterproofing, and work on wall treatments like tile or paint. Install your shower or bathtub, toilet, vanity, and sink. Flooring goes in after major fixtures but before the toilet. Lastly, install new lighting fixtures, mirrors, and other finishing touches as desired.
Options include alcove, freestanding, clawfoot, or whirlpool tubs for various preferences.
If you don’t caulk your bathtub, then there won’t be a watertight seal between your bathtub and the wall tile surrounding it. As a result, water can seep into the wall and the floor and cause the perfect breeding grounds for mold and mildew. Not only does this require costly repairs, but mold can be harmful to those breathing it.
Acrylic bathtubs can last up to 30 years without major issues if they receive the right care and maintenance. They can last even longer but might scratch or stain as they age. The expected longevity is a major factor when investing in a new tub. Cast-iron tubs are the longest-lasting option.
DIY installation of a walk-in tub is not recommended as it is a challenging and risky project that requires advanced plumbing knowledge. Professional installation is crucial to ensure a proper and safe setup, water-tight conditions, adherence to local building codes, and the preservation of your product's warranty.
