"We had 2 shower remodels in one day. Marvin & Tony did our tub to shower conversion and Fabio & Joel did our other shower remodel. All four installers were courteous, professional, knowledgeable, and did an awesome job! We're loving our new showers!"
"Luis and his team did an excellent job. We have a house built in 1966 with plaster walls and cast iron tub and they had a bear of a time on the demo. They made sure everything was covered and did an excellent job of cleaning when the shower stall was completed. Could not be happier with the stand up shower and their install. Highly recommend!!!"
"Signature Contracting did a great job on the work they did for us. They were on time every day and the work was done when they said it would. Their estimate was competitive with other estimates we received and what they quoted us at is what we paid. They also answered any questions we had and were willing to comeback and address a few small things after the work was done. Overall a great experience and we plan to use them again for future projects."
"We recently remodeled our bathroom with VKB Kitchen and Bath and are very happy with the results. Everything came out beautiful, especially the tile and shower. The team was helpful, easy to work with, and kept us updated throughout the project. We would definitely recommend VKB for a bathroom remodel!"
"They installed some windows and vinyl siding on my home. They were very professional, communicative, paid great attention to detail, and left the work site clean. Definitely worth the investment."
"It was a great experience. We are very happy with our new tub/shower. Quality materials and awesome service from beginning to end. Installation took a day and the installers were knowledgeable and had excellent customer service skills."
"Our salesman was helpful with getting the right pieces to fit our needs and our budget and then later when we decided to add another piece at the last minute; our installer was great to work with great to work with; and we love the finished result."
"LFC Services is one of the best companies I have ever worked with, and my new basement is beautiful. They are very professional and courteous and ensured that everything from electrical plugs, plumbing, carpet and flooring installation was done perfectly. I have recommended them to other homeowners and will definitely use their services again in the near future."
"We actually hired J Hoss for two jobs, and they did a great job with both! Both were tricky operations involving the plumbing of an old beach house, and they came up with effective ways of dealing with every issue. The hot water heater install involved moving an old hot water heater out of a crawlspace and putting a new one in in a closet, and the plumbing lines were a bit wacky due to the way the cottage had been added onto over time. But they solved the problems without tearing out any walls, which was great. The other job involved a DIY project installing a bathroom vanity that we got halfway through before realizing we were over our heads. They were game and jumped right in and worked with us to complete the job. We loved how they collaborated with us and were so cheerful about our amateur efforts! Definitely will hire again."
Depending on complexity, Installation can take one to three days to ensure all plumbing and tile work is completed correctly.
Yes, a toilet, sink, and shower can share the same vent. This is a common installation method that can simplify plumbing and save space. However, there are important considerations. The vent and associated plumbing must be large enough to handle the demands of all fixtures without compromising the vent's effectiveness. Additionally, the toilet should always be located downstream of all other fixtures. Because requirements can vary and space might be limited, it is essential to check your local building and plumbing codes and consult with a qualified plumber to ensure the installation is done correctly.
Yes, most bathrooms can be converted into a wet room, but the process often involves extensive renovations. Key requirements include having proper plumbing and the ability to slope the floor slightly for drainage. The conversion process typically requires removing the existing floors to install drainage, replacing drywall with waterproofed cement backer board, waterproofing the walls, and installing new fixtures to create an open, curbless shower space. A skilled home renovation professional can evaluate your bathroom to determine if it's a suitable candidate. It's also worth considering resale value; if you only have one bathroom, converting it to a wet room might not be ideal as many homebuyers prefer to have at least one bathtub.
The size of the pipe you use for your shower depends on the part of the shower you’re installing. Shower drainpipes have a 2-inch diameter, and the water supply lines (both hot and cold) have a ½-inch diameter. You may want to slightly increase the size of the vertical pipe if you have dual showerheads. Check the local building code prior to installation for guidance.
