"The project manager, Bob, was very helpful and responsive throughout the process. The office manager seemed a bit scattered but everyone else was very professional.. When our grab bar was inadvertently omitted, the ordered one and came to install it at our earliest convenience. They also replaced a transition piece that had not been cut properly. The finished shower is great."
"Emmanuel is a 'top-notch' professional. He kept his appointments by showing up on time when he did the estimate and when we hired this company to complete the job. Emmanuel replaced 4 tiles in our kitchen as there was very bad damage. The job he did was absolutely wonderful! My husband and I agree that we would hire him again!!"
"Date: 01/28/19 Task: Electrical Switches, Outlets & Fixtures - Install or Repair I have hired the Blatons for last June to replace the heat pump system. I have peace of mind program. Once a year, the technician came out to check all my electric and plumbing service. It is no cost but it will cost the ONLY something they find it wrong. The Blanton Techs are excellent services, very professional and knowledgeable. Thank you! I have been a Blantonscustomer for first years. Blantons Staff have always been impressed with their service and workmanship, but this was my first experience with their HVAC Technician, John A. was very pleased with honor customer service."
We received three quotes from three companies and in the end we were getting more for our money with Triangle Classic Homes and they was using qualified resources...including an architect, surveyor and other companies that he has been doing business with for decades. All the people that came to my home were respectful of our property and knowledgeable of their trade.
Initially, both Ralph and Carl from Triangle Classic Homes came to our house and discussed our vision. We had an initial consultation and we were given rough estimates just so we could determine the scope of our project within our budget.
When we were ready we worked with Carl's team, starting with the architect to get the project and budget to the right place.
When we got started we immediately ran into county set back issues...but Carl made multiple visited to the county office and came up with several suggestions and from there we were able to make decisions and alter our project and start construction.
From that point it was smooth sailing. We had part of our existing driveway removed because we requested it be replaced as part of the project. Construction started. I was told daily what was going to happen each day, when to expect people coming to the house and who was coming...if anything changed I was also notified. There was a great deal of planning to consider the daily weather too. Carl visited at least once a day if not multiple times a day when we had workers on site. Our HOA is very clear that the job site must be clean and ours was clean and scrap material was carried away as each stage of construction was completed.
This was a big project...we minimized changes after the initial plan. However, there were a few minor changes made and we were sure to communicate and Triangle Classic was very clear on the impact on the project.
Both the shingles and the brick on our existing house were not in production so Carl worked with multiple suppliers and we were able to find very similar options.
We were most impressed that Carl did what he said he was going to do. He was always on time and the project was on budget. We communicated daily and if we had any questions we contacted Carl by phone and he was always willing to educate us...he was always available...and we continually communicated to insure we all were on the same page, Carl knew from day one what was most important to us and he met those requests.
We have recommended Triangle Classic to all our friends, family and neighbors who were very impressed with the entire project...we will continue to recommend Triangle Classic and we consider them our contractor. He is my first contact for any future projects.
Bathtub Replacement questions, answered by experts
Different bathtub materials have various advantages and disadvantages. Cast iron and copper are considered the most durable materials because they are dense and resistant to damage from scratches or dents. However, cast-iron tubs are heavy, expensive, and may not be suitable for upper floors. Copper offers unique benefits but requires regular chemical treatment to prevent a patina from forming, making cast iron a less maintenance-intensive option. Porcelain is a good second choice for durability. For those on a budget, acrylic is a popular option, though it is less durable.
Of the two most common and affordable bathtub materials, acrylic is notably better. Though fiberglass is cheaper, it is also more prone to scratching, chipping, fading, and cracking. Acrylic holds up better to wear and tear, cleaning, and sun exposure; the slight cost increase is usually worth the increased longevity.
If you don’t caulk your bathtub, then there won’t be a watertight seal between your bathtub and the wall tile surrounding it. As a result, water can seep into the wall and the floor and cause the perfect breeding grounds for mold and mildew. Not only does this require costly repairs, but mold can be harmful to those breathing it.
Plan your budget, storage needs, accessibility features, and design aesthetics before starting.
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.
