"Chris Reynard and Long Baths transformed our old Master Bath shower from old and ugly to new and easy to clean in just a day. Worth every penny and we would hire them again!"
"This is a top notch company. Everyone we dealt with was very professional and flexible. We wanted to replace our old 2nd floor master bathroom with a modern walk-in shower, Toto Neorest, new vanity, lighting, electrical upgrade, flooring and new paint. They handled all required permits and inspections. They coordinated with other vendors whose products we purchased. We were impressed with the professionalism of all the workers. We always felt informed and confident in their work. They cleaned up before leaving each day. The finished work was breathtaking."

"A+++ Patriot was SUBSTANTIALLY less than all the other quotes I received. I wish we called them first! The remodeling project exceeded all expectations, transforming the bathroom into a stunning, modern space. The old bathtub, which had been in use for 25 years, was becoming increasingly difficult for a 90-year-old to navigate due to its high step. Now, thanks to the thoughtful renovation, there is a comfortable and easily accessible shower that allows me to sit down and enjoy the experience without any struggle. The new design is not only beautiful but also incredibly functional, making my daily routine much more enjoyable and safe."
"Their sales team was really polite and respectful. Their installation crew did a great job and cleaned up after themselves really well. I was really pleased with the overall experience."
"Howard replaced the heating element in the hot water heater. He was very personable and explained everything in detail before, during and after the job was completed. He also provided me with information about getting the oil burner cleaned and service. I will continue to use their services in the future."
"I will recommend to my family and friends. They replaced my broken tub and shower surround with beautiful tile and a new tub. All in one day! Everyone I spoke to at the office and the install team were friendly, professional, and very helpful. Great quality and workmanship. Very happy with the finished product."
"Andrew knocked this install out of the park! He replaced an incredibly inefficient hot water heater with a hybrid hot water heater, ran the condensate line through pipe straps screwed into drop in anchors along our basement wall with the cleanest looking final result that surpassed every expectation I had. He was very communicative well within the budget and will be our go to for any future work we need as long as we live in this area!"
"Blake & Brian came and explained everything for my roof. It was in bad shape and they showed me a lot that other roofers missed. I knew the others seemed too good to be true and missed a ton of stuff. Blake & Brian worked hard to make it affordable and fit within my budget. Super excited to get my roof replaced by an amazing contractor"
Bathtub Replacement questions, answered by experts
Updating to modern styles and efficient models can enhance bathroom appeal and increase property value.
There are a few things you can do to keep your bathroom remodel as affordable as possible in your mobile home:
Ask your contractor to replace caulk and grout rather than retiling
Ask your professional to refinish your tub/shower rather than replacing
Upgrade your sink fixtures rather than replacing the sink
Upgrade cabinet hardware and ask your remodeler to refinish the cabinets
Avoid changing the layout of your bathroom
Options include alcove, freestanding, clawfoot, or whirlpool tubs for various preferences.
It is possible to install a two-in-one unit that has both a shower and a walk-in tub so you can still have both in smaller bathrooms or provide a showerhead for those in the household who prefer taking showers. You’ll hear these referred to as walk-in tub and shower combo units. Keep in mind that these combo units can take up more space than a standard shower or tub, and you’ll most likely need to hire a pro to install one.
The reasons not to install flooring underneath a bathtub outweigh the benefits. A properly installed bathtub will keep water from reaching the unprotected subfloor underneath. Installing a tub on top of finished flooring can lead to damage and scratches to the new floor. Also, a small leak from a tub drain may be more difficult to notice if finished flooring impedes water drips.
