"I wanted to replace an old bathtub unit with a walk-in shower. Every bit of my experience with this company, from the saleswoman they sent to the installation itself, was excellent. The work was done in two days; at multiple points the installer would ask me to come in and look, so he could explain to me what he was doing. The workers were very efficient and polite in answering my questions, and they did a good job of cleaning up after themselves. I highly recommend this company -- I couldn't be happier with my new shower!"
"We had a Great experience with Unity Bath and Shower! We had our old fiberglass tub/shower removed and replaced with a beautiful shower with a sliding door. Jerrod was great to work with, he made sure all of our wants were taken care of and made it work within our budget. The price for the project was less than 2 other bids we got and the product is way better. THANKS AGAIN UNITY!"
"Five Star Bath Solutions (FSBS) replaced our non-functioning basement bathroom whirlpool tub with a new whirlpool tub + shower wall replacement. FSBS was very easy to work with, from the initial in-home meeting to the completion of the installation. We were kept up-to-date on start date and other pertinent details and pre-install queries were answered promptly. The replacement/instillation itself was completed efficiently, the crew arrived when promised, the crew was very respectful of our property + home and we received a detailed walk-through of the completed project. We would strongly recommend FSBS for anyone considering a similar project in the future. Excellent service from start to finish. Liz R. + Luke S."

"Had a tub/shower, replaced with shower, new commode, new vanity and sink and floor. The job was amazing - done in one day - team was professional, very detailed. Totally impressed with the professionalism of the company."
"We decided to have our bathroom remodeled because we wanted to update not only the color but also the layout and design. We contacted four remodeling companies. The first one was StarBath and it was "Ryan". He came over, listened to us, answered our questions, and gave valuable direction and advice that made a lot of sense. He spent over an hour with us. Very knowledgable. The 2nd and 3rd were not very professional. One told us that what we wanted was impossible and we would have to make it "realistic". The other one never provided a proposal, as promised. The last one showed up, seemed rushed, and was very impersonal. We had to repeat ourselves a few times. He said he would beat anyone, which he did, but we opted to go with Ryan due to his professionalism, customer service, and knowledge. They turned the bathroom into an in-home spa We couldn't be happier with the results."
"We had several bathrooms that needed all new tile, a laundry room carpet removal and tile install, and travertine tile removal of cracked tiles and replace with new ones. High quality work that was completed efficiently. The guys were great to work with and very respectful."
"We replaced our bathtub with a walk in shower, and are extremely happy with the work that was provided. In only took one person 6 hours to complete the job, and he was very professional and the quality of work was great. Would hire them again."
Bathtub Replacement questions, answered by experts
Installing a walk-in bathtub can be worth it if it improves the user's safety and independence. However, because walk-in tubs require a large investment, not every homeowner has the means or desire to install one. As an alternative, some homeowners prefer to install a walk-in shower and transfer bench instead. Walk-in showers cost between $1,150 and $8,000, making them far more budget-friendly in comparison.
Small bathroom renovation costs don’t have to break the bank. A $5,000 budget is realistic, provided you're not adding luxurious fittings or making complex layout changes. Changing the layout is the most costly aspect of renovating a bathroom. So if you keep the layout, do some of the job DIY (within your skillset), and use relatively affordable fixtures and accessories, you should be able to stay within your budget.
Installing a bathtub can be complex, depending on your prior plumbing experience, the type of bathtub you’re installing, and whether you need to make any changes to your bathroom’s plumbing. It’s advisable to leave this job to the pros, especially if you’re new to the world of plumbing.
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.
It is possible to install a two-in-one unit that has both a shower and a walk-in tub so you can still have both in smaller bathrooms or provide a showerhead for those in the household who prefer taking showers. You’ll hear these referred to as walk-in tub and shower combo units. Keep in mind that these combo units can take up more space than a standard shower or tub, and you’ll most likely need to hire a pro to install one.
