"I highly recommend Bay State Bath. The installers did a fabulous job efficient ,respectful. When done they cleaned up the area and you would never know they had been here. If you’re thinking of installing a walk-in shower, do it now, you won’t regret it. I should’ve done it years ago."

"Jeff Veglia and his team did a great job on my condo renovation after we suffered extensive damage from a water leak. The project included a complete kitchen remodel, custom cabinets, plumbing, electrical, ceramic tiles, and all new plaster walls. Also replaced were dining room, living room and bedroom hardwood floors, and new plaster ceiling and vinyl flooring in the basement. We are very grateful to Jeff for his responsiveness and professionalism on this project."

"It was a pleasure to do business with Kinsella Built. Every aspect of the Bathroom Remodel experience was a joy. A few notables: - The professionalism exhibited by Grainne, John & James and their crew, and the plumbing, electrical and tile sub contractors was top notch. - The tidiness during the project and their final clean up was impeccable. - The cost (on budget) and timeliness (on schedule). - Craftmanship is amazing. - The communication experience was second to none. Kinsella Built was super responsive to every phone and text inquiry. Grainne talked us through questions we had with the proposal, checked in a couple of times during the project and visited for a look at the finished project and to answer and questions. I was advised by John or James of what to expect as the project progressed. We highly recommend Kinsella Built."

"Joe gave me a quote on a bathroom remodel and repairing some drywall in another room. It was a pretty close call but I ended up deciding on another contractor. I had confidence that Joe would have done a good job for what that's worth. The quote was pretty reasonable but didn't include any materials or trash removal (not sure how much that would have been). Of the 4 quotes that I got he was the only one who suggested I hire someone else to replace the windows. While not a big deal I thought maybe that was a little odd. Although I did respect that he said that wasn't an area of expertise and he'd be happy to work with whoever i hired for the windows. The estimated time for completion of the project was on the long end as well so if you're on a tight schedule this might be a consideration. Overall, I would consider Joe for any future projects."

"I absolutely LOVED having John and his crew working in my house and doing the job.  They were tidy, cleaning up everyday, vacuuming up the dust, and cleaning and clearing their stuff so it was easy for me to live around them.  They paid attention to details, making sure the small things were complete and perfect.  All of the crew was friendly, respectful, considerate.  I felt completely safe leaving the house to them during the day.  
John is meticulous, responsive, dedicated to serving the client.  When I took John through the possible scope of the job he helped me sort out how I could get the job done without incurring the most cost.  I, of course, really appreciated and valued that. Every time I wanted to make a change John was clear with me about what that change would do the estimate he had given me.  It helped me make realistic choices.  When I wasn't sure about a possible direction John sat down with me, walked me through the options, went into the details to let me know what the possible problems and outcomes would be. 
When I talked with John about redoing a shed  that needs to be completely replaced John told me about other contractors who could do the job cheaper than he could.  Because it's outside of the house I'm glad to look at other contractors.  I do need additional work done in the house and am on his schedule to do the work later in the year.  
I will gladly use John and his crew because of their responsiveness, ethical values, sense of integrity and attention to detail.

"Pedro Quissanga was wonderful throughout the process. The project started out as a porch window replacement with an architect drawing plans, but once we started construction, we discovered that the whole underneath part was rotting and needed reconstruction. Pedro and his crew were hard working, reliable and careful, and his price for all of the work was very reasonable. When something went awry late in the construction, Pedro took it seriously and got people over within hours to locate the issue and fix the problem. Even though the project ended up being much more difficult than initially expected, there were never any unexpected charges and the additional work was at a consistent high level. We recommend Crystal Renovations without reservation and have several neighbors using them now for small-to-medium sized projects."

"After we called him Liam came by one evening after work, looked at the scope of the job and had a quote to me within 2 days. We scheduled the work but had to postpone due to rain. Rescheduled and had the work done. - Removed rotted wall trim board from around all four edges of deck and removed from site. - Supplied and installed new composite trim boards on edge deck on all four sides. - Re-secured joists to beam and reinstalled the decking that had sunk because of rotten joists to same location. - Removed existing broken attic stairs and replaced with new stairs and trim. All done personally by Liam Neely and his assistant Kevin between the hours of 7:00am and 1:30pm (very quick). Clean up was thorough. BTW - Liam is one of the most pleasant guys that we've had come into this house to do work. Highly recommend his services."

Bathtub Replacement questions, answered by experts

The best bathroom floor tiles are strong enough to withstand the weight of a clawfoot tub. However, professional tile installation is essential. If the tiles are uneven or improperly fixed, they may crack under the pressure. Be careful when installing the tub—if it drops or drags on the tiles, it could easily cause scratches or cracks.

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.

The plumbing industry has standardized the sizes for bathtub drains. They are 1 1/2 inches wide to fit all standard bathtubs from 14 to 26 inches deep. The standard sizing is to ensure that the drain fits into the P trap, a special part of your piping that prevents sewer water from bubbling up into your home (yuck).

Installing a drop-in tub yourself is possible, especially if you’re replacing your existing tub with a new one of the same size. If you’re replacing a different type of tub, you’ll need to build the structure to hold the new drop-in tub and finish the exposed sides. The structure must be sturdy enough to hold the tub when it’s filled with water, and you’ll need to seal it. If any plumbing work is required, it’s best to call a licensed plumber who installs bathtubs.

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.
