The guys were respectful, and helpful with any questions we had. They kept us informed with each step of the way. They cleaned up before the job was over and went over instructions. Highly recommend Jaccuzizi and this crew."

"Shawn and his crew did an excellent job and even made suggestions based on his vast experience that made the project run smooth, on time and inline with my budget. I do not hesitate to reccomend CoCara to anyone needing a reputable and reliable contractor."
"Can t possibly say enough good things about this company! Dependable, cleaned as they went, showed up exactly when they said, finished the job in less time than we expected! Typically contract workers show up looking like bums that you are afraid of letting in your home... not these guys. Clean cut and personable. Answered questions freely without making us feel like we were intruding. This company installed a closet in our bedroom that when finished appeared to have been built when house was built! No simple task since we have extremely decorative crown molding with rope lights that they had to duplicate. I could go on forever but will just finish with.... great company to work with. From the owner to the guys who work for him. Great experience. Will be hiring again soon for another project! Thanks a million Mike, Cameron and Scott!"
"He's very courteous, dependable and on time. He used quality materials and his workers were great, I was very impressed. The clean up was great and I didn't have any complaints about him. I would refer him to my family and close friends. He did a beautiful job, even better than the builders who did our house!"
"I recently had the pleasure of working with The Shower Company for a shower installation, and I couldn't be more impressed with their service. Not only did they complete the shower replacement efficiently and professionally, but they also went above and beyond when our sump pump failed unexpectedly. In an emergency situation, their team responded quickly, assessing the issue with our sump pump and installing a new one that very same day. It was such a relief to have such a dependable company handle both issues seamlessly. The technicians were knowledgeable, courteous, and truly cared about resolving the problem quickly, even during an urgent situation. From the initial consultation to the emergency repair, The Shower Company exceeded expectations. If you're looking for reliable, professional service, I highly recommend them! They have earned my trust and future business."

If you’re replacing a different type of tub, you’ll need to build the structure to hold the new drop-in tub and finish the exposed sides. The structure must be sturdy enough to hold the tub when it’s filled with water, and you’ll need to seal it.
