"I had my roof replaced. The salesperson was knowledgeable and very personable. Bridget was amazing. Communication was great throughout the entire process and I was satisfied with the results."
"Emergency plumbing job on main water line, tenants without water, early morning call to Mr. Collazo, repaired in an expedited and professional manner, only team that I trust."
"We have an older house and bathfitters made it feel brand new. I love our new bathroom! Surrounding walls WERE brown, rust in color from years of hard water stains. NOW the walls are super white, bright and look amazing. The work was done in a day like they told me. Dustin was cleaning up as he was working throughout the day. I REALLY can't believe that old bathroom looks brand new, I LOVE IT!"
"The ladies who came were very nice and professional and did a good thorough job! I only gave the B(Instead of an A)because there is always room for improvement in every job done, I would def hire them again!"
"Chris does fantastic work. This was our third major project that Chris completed for us in the last 2 years. He gutted our dated hallway bathroom in 2019, did a complete renovation of our kitchen in 2020 and just this month rebuilt our back deck. Chris and his crew are the real deal. He is fast and meticulous and once he’s on the job he’s 100% focused on getting things done right, on time and on budget. He offers great design suggestions and works within our budget. He’s also economical and will reuse materials where he can to save a few bucks. The best part? He’s very reasonably priced. When he quoted our bathroom, he was 50%(!!) less expensive than the other contractors."
"From start to finish we have had a great experience with Rodenhiser. Rick Picard came out to look at our system and provided a few estimates for different options while on site. We needed most of our 35 year old central air conditioning system replaced. The communication from the company was impressive. We always knew who was coming and when. They helped with the initial MassSave paperwork and even submitted all of the rebate paperwork for us when the install was complete. Good luck finding another company that will do the same. Our installers (Brian Heno and Dylan E.) arrived on time every day. They were professional, kept us updated on their progress and cleaned up daily. Two very hard working guys. They did a great job with the install. It looks and performs fantastic. We could not be happier with the system now that it is installed. We chose the correct company to work with. This is our second time having Rodenhiser complete a major install at our house. We had them install a furnace several years ago. I highly recommend them for your HVAC needs. Thank you."
"Replaced a bow window and a patio slider. They accomplished it all in one day. They were clean, covered everything up when they were working so there was minimal dust. Vacuumed when they finished. Pleasant and professional. I highly recommend Rite Window."
"We had an excellent experience with the whole team at PIC. Wonderful job on our shower and windows replacement. The communication with everyone was great and the installation was professional."
Bathtub Replacement questions, answered by experts
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.
Of the two most common and affordable bathtub materials, acrylic is notably better. Though fiberglass is cheaper, it is also more prone to scratching, chipping, fading, and cracking. Acrylic holds up better to wear and tear, cleaning, and sun exposure; the slight cost increase is usually worth the increased longevity.
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.
Plan your budget, storage needs, accessibility features, and design aesthetics before starting.
A powder room cannot have a bath. If it had a bath, it would likely be considered a three-quarter bath or full bath, depending on the other features. You might hear the term “powder room” used to describe a bathroom used by guests, but it wouldn’t technically be a powder room. However, powder rooms or half baths are ideal for guests because they can use it without entering the more private areas of the home.
