"We were pleased with the price and my husband said the owner was very easy to work with.  We knew this was a small job (not much money involved), and the owner came out himself to check things out and give a quote.  The bathroom is very small and hard to manuever, but we were disappointed that the workemen left scratches on doors and the wood frame.  No big deal, they can be cleaned up with a little Old English.  After the tub was installed, the area around the tub was plastered by the workmen that day and they said they were done.  Of course, since it was thick, it cracked while it dried.  But, the owner came out a day or so later and re-plastered it.  It cracked a little less during the curing time and my husband was able to fix it and repaint the bathroom.  If you don't have someone that is handy, keep this in mind.  While I love the new bathtub, there are a few concerns.  First, the scratches on the door and woodwork.  Hard to avoid with the size of this bathroom. So, that was almost understandable.   But, the men put their tools in the sink without protection.  This left surface scratches in a new sink.  While they were installing the tub, they mentioned that they would have to take out the toilet to fit it in.  Since we wanted a new toilet anyway, my husband went out and purchased a new toilet while they were working.  They installed the new toilet (rather than putting the old one back in, so it wasn't extra work), but after they did that, they stood on the brand new toilet cover with work shoes and put scratch marks on the cover!     During the last meeting with the owner, my husband showed him and he said he would bring a new toilet cover the next day.  My husband told him no rush ... but it's been about six weeks now, and we haven't heard anything.  The last thing is that while I was taking a bath, I noticed that one of the tub joints under the faucet was not caulked.  My husband did it himself. Not sure if these problems happened because it was a small job and almost a losing prop for the company.  But, I'm asked all the time for references and we (and my family) do have a lot more work we would like done.  As friendly and easy the company/owner is to work with, I can't recommend them without the caveat that you might need to have someone handy to "finish up". "

Toilets questions, answered by experts

The toilet flange anchors to the subfloor, usually with wood screws or cement screws, but most of it should sit above floor level at full height. When a flange is flush with the subfloor or below it, it can lead to the creation of leak paths.

If your toilet is still leaking after replacing the toilet flapper, then you may not have installed the toilet flapper correctly. Double-check that you have placed the flapper over the overflow tube correctly, and check the flapper chain is at the right length. If your toilet is still leaking, then you may have another problem on hand. For example, you may need to replace the toilet wax ring or replace the toilet fill valve if your toilet is wobbly and leaking from around the base.

A wax ring can often last the entire lifespan of a toilet, which is typically 20 to 30 years. However, it may need to be replaced sooner if it becomes damaged. Signs that your wax ring needs replacement include bad odors or leaks coming from the base of the toilet. The wax can also dry out, flake, or crumble if the toilet was not secured correctly upon installation or has become loose over time. If you notice your toilet wobbles, it's a good indication that the wax ring may be compromised and should be inspected to prevent leaks.

The water in your toilet tank refills after each flush. So if you see dirty water in the bowl, you should check the tank to see if it’s coming from there. A dirty toilet tank can be the result of sediment in the water itself—-after all, the water will sit in the tank between flushes and can cause the interior to change into a dingy color. Faulty toilet components, like an old flapper, corroded tank lever or chain, or damaged seals, can also lead to dirty water as the materials break down inside the tank. You can clean the toilet tank or change out the old parts to give it a fresh start.

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.
