"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!"
"Had a bathtub taken out and converted to walk in shower unit. The quality seems top notch and installer was great. Installation was over 2-3 days but this was due to a bad snow storm in the area with hazardous roads that caused traffic accidents. The installer went out of his way to do everything he could to expedite it while maintaining a quality install, which I feel he accomplished. Only part I did not like was the hard sell approach of the sales person. Be prepared. Fortunately I had done my research on this company and am comfortable in my decision. Time will tell how well it holds up, but the warranty looks like a good lifetime one. Would definitely use them again."
"Thank you to Trident for the beautiful new bathroom. I had a walk in shower put in to replace the old bathtub. The process was so smooth and easy. Big thanks to Dave and everyone that helped make my experience great. I would highly recommend Trident if you're looking to upgrade your bathroom."
"Mad City was personable and professional with all that needed to be done at my home. Patio door replacement, bedroom window replacement, and shower stall installation. They even hired a subcontractor to repair a hole in the ceiling that was caused by a leaky bathtub. My highest complements!"

"Peak recently did a kitchen remodel for us. We replaced the tile floor with hard wood, updated the island with painted cabinets and reconfigured a few other cabinets. We replaced the countertops, backsplash and the window over the sink. Peak did a great job of coordinating multiple vendors and overseeing a lot of details. The work was done professionally and timely. Ken, our project coordinator, provided frequent updates, was always available when we had questions and followed up on all issues very quickly. We were very pleased with how everything turned out."
"We had a water leak in an upstairs bathroom that damaged a downstairs ceiling and the subfloor. He brought in his subs to replace the flooring, subfloor, toilet flange, sheetrock, ceiling, popcorn texture, and painting. Everything he did and all of his subcontractors were fantastic. Highly recommend Luke and his professionalism."
"They worked with our insurance after a claim of wind damage for our roof shingles, They conducted this in a timely and convenient manner. We were very pleased with the entire process that we asked them to replace our gutters. Everything looks great. We will definitely use Priority in the future for other projects."
Bathtub Replacement questions, answered by experts
A good soaking tub will allow you to completely submerge yourself in the water, so it needs to be at least 20 inches deep. Luxury soaking tubs are 24 inches deep so that you can easily have enough space to be submerged in the water once the tub is full.
A standard bathtub can be used for soaking, but they tend to be shallower (between 15 and 18 inches deep). A soaking tub is designed to be deep enough to totally submerge yourself in the water (about 20 and 24 inches deep). Additionally, most soaking tubs are freestanding, while regular bathtubs come in various styles with drop-in, surround, and wall-mounted options available.
It’s substantially less expensive to reglaze a tub than to replace it. The average cost of reglazing a bathtub is between $400 and $700, but that range may be higher based on where you live and the type of tub you have. Meanwhile, if you want to replace the bathtub, you’re looking at $2,000 to $9,400, with the average close to $5,700.
You can use a new bathtub after 24 to 48 hours. It's best to double-check with your plumber, though, because the time can depend on the type of bathtub installed and special process or materials used. For example, certain sealants need longer to cure, or if the installation involves extensive plumbing work, the plumber might want you to wait.
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.
