"Mr. Coleman was excellent with the consultation no pressure. Installation was great. Love having my new walk in shower. No-one can go wrong hiring Mr. Colman for a bathtub replacement"
"While the quality of work and clean up performed by the crew was outstanding and Iâ m pleased with the finished product the crew didnâ t arrive until almost 11 and didnâ t leave until 9 PM. While I appreciate the goal of a new bathtub/shower replaced in as little as a day working until 9 PM is not acceptable. When setting up the appointment it needs to be stated very clearly what the expectations are for the day. As I said, Iâ m very happy with the finished product but 20k which includes no installation cost is way too much for what was actually provided."
"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!"
"We hired All Work Construction to update our master bathroom, including marble floor and shower walls, custom niche, new tub, vanity with marble top, electrical etc. I'm a designer and perfectionist, so this job was rather complex, with a few minor hick-ups. All Work Construction did an amazing job overall, Vlad and his team were very responsive and pleasant to work with. We love our new dream bathroom! Would like to hire them again, to remodel our kids' bathroom :)"

"We reached out to Matt regarding a leak in our downstairs bathroom and issues with the drain. It was a bit difficult to find someone willing to squeeze us in on short notice but he worked with us and stopped by the very next day. Not only did he resolve the issue but he also replaced our dated cast iron tub which we had been wanting to do since purchasing the home. He works very efficiently while also paying close attention to the smallest detail and making sure to address all questions and concerns. I would %100 recommend his work without hesitation."
"Phil remodeled my whole kitchen. He remolded my bathroom into a new full bath. His workmanship is excellent and his idea and design is good. His price is very reasonable. I will definitely hire him again for my next remodel job."
"We had an excellent experience with the whole team at PIC. Wonderful job on our shower and windows replacement. The communication with everyone was great and the installation was professional."
"Replaced a bow window and a patio slider. They accomplished it all in one day. They were clean, covered everything up when they were working so there was minimal dust. Vacuumed when they finished. Pleasant and professional. I highly recommend Rite Window."
"they responded quickly for a leaking dishwasher during the cold spell we had in early february. disconnected the dishwasher and i hired them to replace shut off valves in two locations, and he was able to do it right away. i plan on having them put a shower in a bathroom soon"
You can put a structure under your bathtub for support. Many modern tubs come with a built-in support structure underneath. Almost any type of mortar or floor-leveling compound is acceptable for new bathtubs that don’t include a support structure.
You can also install spray foam under an existing bathtub to eliminate or reduce squeaking or sagging. However, spray foam isn’t rigid enough for primary tub support.
Acrylic tubs are extremely durable and rarely chip or crack. Even when frequently used, tubs made with this material are largely resistant to damage. However, damage may occur as the tub ages. They can also crack from damage from heavy objects and cleaners or a lack of support.
Fiberglass tubs last between 10 and 15 years or more if they’re well-maintained. Proper care will help them last as long as possible. However, fiberglass bathtubs are prone to cracking, fading, and scratches over time. Bathtub installation by a plumber is one of the best ways to ensure your tub has the right support to last its full lifespan.
When buying caulk, look for ones labeled for tub and tile. These have either acrylic latex or silicone compounds. This allows the caulk to stick to smooth surfaces and prevent mildew from forming.
Installing a bathtub can be complex, depending on your prior plumbing experience, the type of bathtub you’re installing, and whether you need to make any changes to your bathroom’s plumbing. It’s advisable to leave this job to the pros, especially if you’re new to the world of plumbing.
