"This was a tub-to-shower conversion. What an excellent experience! I cannot say enough about the salesman, the person who came out to do the measurements, and the two men who did the teardown and installation. It was a very positive experience, and I could not be happier. I highly recommend this company!"

"They removed an old bathtub and installed a shower enclosure. The company performed as the promised. Five Star Bath Solutions team did a good job during the installation. The bid was really competitive with the others. We are really pleased."

"Beware of the sales pitch, they keep stacking on deductions if you sign that day.
On completion of the installation, the bathroom looks great, but there were problems due to previous owners hidden wall once the old tub was removed. My concerns were that the installer and myself had different goals. He wanted to complete the job and I wanted choices. I lost. When we ran into problems and I asked what my options were, his responses were always and quot;I haven't decided yet.and quot;
The wrong tub size was ordered because of the false wall and I asked, and quot;Well it's just a tub, can we put in the right size?and quot; Didn't happen, and no options were offered. Options I thought of later such as 1. stop installation and order the right size; or 2. push the tub back two inches and give more floor space. Instead, a false 2 inch plywood wall was built behind the tub.
Another problem was the tub itself. I order the 17 inch high model thinking I would have more depth from my old 15 inch tub. Not so. Beware of inside tub not being the same depth as outside tub due to support feet under the tub of aproximate 2 1/2 inches. A 17and quot; tub measure 13 1/2and quot; on the shallow side and 14 1/2and quot; on the drain side. Plus the drain hole drops the actual water depth to 10 1/2 inches at the deeper end. This was not pointed out to me before purchase. In my opinion this is a manufacture flaw. The installer helped my out by plugging the drain hole.
I had to search and purchase the new floor tile. I made the right choice and it looks georgous. It was a hard job installing it because the old sub-flooring needed to be removed to match the curve of the previous wall tiles. A lot of unexpected dust. After two days dry time, I applied a sealer. However there were cracks in the grout after two weeks. Ken came back and fixed it and I applied the sealer again.
The third problem I had was a squeaky wall. Apparently the acrylic wall by the head rest was not sealed properly and it sqeeks when I use the tub and rest my head. Ken came back and tried to fix it by inserting foam behind the tub but was not successful. At least it's not a visable defect.
All in all my advice would be take your time and explore other options. Maybe I could have chosen all tile walls instead of acrylic and paid the same price. Go to your tile store and ask their advice before you sign with anyone. They might have more options. However my bathroom looks great and it will serve me for many more years and it is a step-up from what I had."

Plumbing questions, answered by experts

You can use normal solder, which consists of a tin and copper alloy, on copper pipes. You should avoid using leaded solder, especially if you're soldering together water supply lines, as it will contaminate drinking water. One way to test if your copper pipes contain lead is to scrape off the solder. If the scraped area is shiny, it likely contains lead.

The two main types of bathtub faucets are screw-on and slip-on. A screw-on faucet has threads inside and screws onto the pipe, while a slip-on faucet slips onto the pipe and is secured with a setscrew on its underside. You may also encounter other designs, such as freestanding, wall-mount, deck-mount, or other high-end specialized systems. It is important to identify your specific faucet type before attempting removal to avoid damaging the pipes or the wall.

An underground water leak will most likely show signs of water damage in the basement. If you have a concrete foundation, look for frizzle lines and discoloration on the walls. Sometimes, you may be able to feel the moisture with direct touch. Also, if your basement smells musty or moldy, you might have an underground water leak that’s causing mold to form.

Problems with a damaged handle or valve cartridge can result in a leaking faucet that won’t turn off completely. The faucet may also be rusty or corroded, which can prevent the faucet from turning the water off all the way. A leaky faucet can cause issues beyond the annoying dripping sound. It also wastes water and can be an indication that something else is wrong with the system, so fix a leaky bathtub faucet as soon as possible.

If there's no water coming out of the spigot, or barely any water, you might have a clogged water line. Areas with hard water are prone to this problem because the high mineral content in hard water causes build-up in pipes and water lines. This constricts the water flow and causes water to slowly trickle out, if at all.
