"I have had several experiences with Blanton.’s over the past few years. I have been very pleased with their employees, teams, and, particularly, their overall business practices. Having had 2 basement floods in the past few years caused by hairpin holes in the pipes. They did a great job repairing/replacing all of my pipes, some electrical work, and HVAC, all in a timely and safe manner. The technicians would give descriptions and probable time/costs their tasks would require. They were polite! Only late yesterday afternoon, I called them to tell of a leak under my kitchen sink. The technicians were here at 8:30 am this morning, repaired the leak, AND advised me there was no charge. How many firms would do that!!!"
"Getting a walk in tub is expensive no matter who you use. My experience thus far is with installation only and I must say my install went great. It has been over a month and no issues with my tub so I cannot comment on repair process with American Standard."
"The staff was very professional. The repairs were done excellently. The painting was done very well. The staff was willing to work within my schedule. I would recommend without reservation."
"We called in a panic because our kitchen sink was leaking all over the floor and they came first thing the next morning . Not only were they fast and professional, but the repair was a lot less than I'd expect. Thank you for such a great experience !!!"
"Fantastic! Billy did a very professional job, I love my new bathroom and the way it came out. He demolished the room, installed a walk-in shower where there was a tub, tiled the floor, and shower. Installed new sink and toilet, painted. My new shower door is amazing."
"Fayetteville Flooring is AWESOME! They replaced our carpet in our upstairs bedroom in 2015 and we called them to replace our carpet in our great room in 2021 and my husband and I are VERY HAPPY with their work. The staff is incredibly welcoming and helpful with any questions that we had about all carpet styles. We would definitely recommend them to anyone."
"Since I had my entire bathroom done, i.e., new ceiling, floor, paint, vanity, toilet and above toilet cabinet and tub/shower converted to walk in shower, Lillian was extremely helpful in eliminating the stress of bringing this all together. The shower is beautiful as is everything else. We will be doing my husband's bathroom next year and plan on using Luxury Bath & Kitchens at that time as well. I highly recommend them."

Moisture can cause all sorts of paint issues, including paint bubbling around your showerhead. When water from the showerhead gets onto the ceiling, it can cause the layers of paint to separate, leading to bubbling on the ceiling.

A roll-in shower is a popular bathroom remodel for seniors that includes a large, open space that's larger than your standard shower, a smooth, beveled slope no higher than half an inch to allow wheelchairs to enter, shower handrails to assist with support, anti-slip coating, and a shower bench for sitting. Some roll-in showers have other features like shelving, storage, and hand shower arm extensions or slide mounts.
Most of the time, Medicare will not pay for a roll-in shower because it isn’t considered medically necessary. However, a doctor’s recommendation and other medical evidence may qualify you for reimbursement. If you need a roll-in shower for medical reasons, you will likely need to pay up front for installation and then apply for reimbursement.
You should replace your showerhead if you notice issues such as low water pressure, leaks, rust, mineral deposits, sediment buildup, or black mold. These signs can indicate internal problems that might lead to health issues if ignored. If you find black mold, it's wise to inspect the rest of your bathroom for other potential sources. Additionally, significant sediment buildup may suggest the need for a water softener, while persistent low water pressure could point to an issue with your water heater.
Even without these problems, replacing an old fixture is an easy and affordable way to upgrade your shower. A new showerhead can offer several benefits, including improved water pressure, better water efficiency, and an enhanced aesthetic that complements your bathroom's style. Modern showerheads also frequently come with extra features like multiple spray settings or a detachable head to improve your showering experience.
