"The reglaze of my bathtub looks fantastic, like a brand new tub! They also re caulked the bathtub and two sinks, and the errands in the kitchen. The whole job looks great, and they charged less than two other contractors I got estimates from."
"Had a bathtub taken out and converted to walk in shower unit. The quality seems top notch and installer was great. Installation was over 2-3 days but this was due to a bad snow storm in the area with hazardous roads that caused traffic accidents. The installer went out of his way to do everything he could to expedite it while maintaining a quality install, which I feel he accomplished. Only part I did not like was the hard sell approach of the sales person. Be prepared. Fortunately I had done my research on this company and am comfortable in my decision. Time will tell how well it holds up, but the warranty looks like a good lifetime one. Would definitely use them again."
"It was an amazing transformation! Everyone involved was great to work with including the nicest sub-contractors for electrical and plumbing! I recommend BAS Mechanical for renovations. They put me in touch with the best tile, countertop & cabinet design professionals who made my decisions stress-free. I will definitely hire them for my next renovation project! They are the best!"
"Working with Christina and Daniele was an absolute joy. We were pushing out this powder room renovation because we just couldn't face the noise, dirt and the hassle of dealing with contractors. If we had know Puglisi Renovations earlier, the powder room would have been done 2 years ago. We loved that this is a family-owned and -operated business which means that they take ownership of the project and do everything to make it work. When we met Christina (who looked at the job at hand and provided the estimate) we had the feeling we were in very good hands and when we Daniele (her husband, who would do the job and learned his amazing craft back in Italy) we knew we would work with them. The result proves that we made the right decision. After 4.5 days of work (removing/replacing the wainscoting, tile floor, toilet, sink, fixtures, light and also adding insulation to our outside walls), our powder room looks just amazing. Daniele worked very focused and quietly (much appreciated as I had to work from home during the project), he had great ideas and provided a meticulous job. Throughout the whole project both Daniele and Christina communicated very well (this is where many contractors fail), which ensured that we got exactly what we wanted - no misunderstandings, no misinterpretations, no fixes needed. We are very pleased, happy to highly recommend Puglisi Renovations and would hire them back in a heartbeat."
"Fantastic! Highly recommend this company. The employees were friendly and easy to deal with. The work was done on time and they did a great job. Pricing was fair and the office manager was able to work around our difficult schedule. In the future if we decide to remodel our kitchen or bathroom we will definitely be utilizing this company."
"I had a great experience using AG Design Studio for my kitchen renovation. Alicia was great at designing our kitchen and really got the style and look that I was going for. She helped us through all the selections including cabinet door style and color, crown molding design, island options, sink and hardware. We also got our countertops and vanityâ s from AG Design Studio (quartz) which was the best decision we made thanks to Alicia! The selection process and installation went smoothly without any issues. We couldn't be happier with our new kitchen! I would definitely recommend AG Design for your next kitchen renovation. Alicia would be awesome at helping you turn your ideas into your dream kitchen! She helped guide us in the right direction and informed us on the different types of material. Highly suggest giving this team a call! You wonâ t regret it!! You could see our final product in the photos attached."

I would definitely use interceramic NJ again for any future projects!"
"We live in a prewar coop building in Manhattan and were in need of a kitchen, living and dining room/den renovation. Because of the limitations in our building, we were not optimistic that many changes could be made that would dramatically alter the feel/function of the space. Inson Wood proved us completely wrong. With his architectural eye and his impeccable design aesthetic we (and everyone who has been here before and after) experiences our apartment as an entirely different living space. Even family members are shocked at the transformation. I think that what Inson accomplished was the product of a few significant factors. First, Inson asks you what you want and seriously considers how you live. If Inson thinks that different approaches should be considered for what you want, he provides renderings of each option so that you can easily visualize and imagine them. Ultimately, Inson respects your preferences and works with them, elevating them to a level far above what you had imagined. Inson uses the highest quality vendors (whom we NEVER would have found) and expertly guides you through choices (note: follow his recommendations!!!)- our walls would never have had dimension and our kitchen backsplash never have been so unique (two examples) if not for the artisans that Inson uses. Inson is also willing to have you be as much or as little involved in the process as you want to be. I did go with Inson to choose many pieces of furniture but realized after a certain point that his taste point made me confident in him choosing much finishing work (ex: window treatments, decorative cushions, which I love) without me. As with all design work, there are always glitches and Inson was extremely responsive and responsible for taking care of those as they came up. We are nothing less than thrilled to come home each evening and enjoy our space, which feels like a luxurious retreat perfectly tailored to us."
"They did a great job, helped me out price wise putting me a budget for the entire job and I would not take the time to call in a review unless they really impressed me. I will definitely recommend them and absolutely use them, again. He'll be back!"
Bathtub Replacement questions, answered by experts
Start by gutting the old fixtures and features that need to be removed, such as the tile, vanity, and flooring. You may benefit by removing the toilet, even if you intend to use the same one. Next, install the new shower or tub, followed by the flooring, and then the drywall, which you should then paint. After that, install your new cabinets, vanity, countertop, sink, and faucet, in that order. Replace your light fixture next. Lastly, reconnect the toilet.
