"Our tub/shower conversion to walk in shower went great and we are pleased with the outcome. Our installer, Walter and Oscar, were professional, able to answer any questions and very easy to work with."
"Blanton may be expensive but they prove their worth by having Expert and Professional Technicians and Customer Service! UPDATE: 03/03/19 *** Install, Replace or Repair a Main Sewer Pipe *** Comment: My 49-year-old house was in dire need of a total replumbing and removal of the very old cast iron pipe that was draining very slow. Blantons plumber, Charlie, made a thorough inspection, came up with an acceptable plan and additional recommendations that needed to be done (which I was not able to see and evaluate), did not include unnecessary work or parts. Of course Blantons is more expensive than most companies but they are worth EVERY dollar spent! THANK YOU!!! UPDATE: 03/15/19 *** Waterproof a Basement or Foundation *** Comment: Shawn and his assistant repaired my encapsulation after a plumbing project was completed. They repaired all cuts to the encapsulation, took time to remove pipes and supports that were no longer needed, and even vacuumed to ensure my crawl space was as clean as it was before the plumbing job. THANK YOU!!"
"Was very dedicated and thoughtful. My mom benefited so much from lowering a partition and replacing the frames in what used to be a sliding door. Excellent service."

"Had both bathrooms remodeled by taking one piece shower and tub out and replacing with tile showers with glass doors. In one of the bathrooms, I also had the vanity and linoleum floor replaced with a new vanity with marble top, and laminate vinyl flooring. Billy did an excellent job on all of it and what I really like is that he only works on your project at one time so he doesn't leave you hanging two or three days while he goes off to work on someone else's job. I would hire him again."
"Kurt built a new deck for my family. He did a beautiful job, he pays attention to detail and even made a few changes I wanted to the gate. He’s courteous and he came when he said he would. I was very happy with his work and highly recommend him. Two thumbs up!!"
"Sherry and her crew were amazing! They listened to what we wanted done each step of the way! They provided amazing insight into design choices and work was done exactly as we desired! I'd hire them in a heartbeat for any and all remodels!"
"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."
Tub Shower Conversion questions, answered by experts
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.
Use mortar underneath the shower base. The mortar holds the shower pan in place and creates a level surface when spread properly. If your flooring is not level, you would need to use shims to create a level surface before moving forward with the mortar and base installation.
Note that installing a shower pan on an uneven surface can eventually lead to cracks and leaks.
You can install a shower pan liner over plywood using the steps outlined above. However, before pouring the mortar pre-slope or installing a premanufactured slope product, check the condition of the plywood. The subfloor should be stable, level, and free of rot or other damage. You’ll need to repair damaged sections before pouring the mortar.
A stall is a basic shower that's smaller than a walk-in shower. A stall usually only has room for one person to stand and turn around. Walk-in showers are often large enough to walk around in or fit more than one person. And thanks to their large size, walk-in showers often don't require a curtain or door to block stray water.
If there are no issues with the plumbing in your house or with the city’s water lines, then it may be possible for you to increase water pressure in your shower by cleaning or replacing your showerhead. For the latter, you should look for high-pressure showerheads with a flow rate as close to the maximum available, which is 2.5 gallons per minute (GPM).
