"The replacement of our old bathtub with a new walk-in shower was a great decision, and having Bath Fitter of Buffalo was the way to go! The work was done in an efficient manner, workmanship was superior, and there was a minimum of mess and disruption, and the installer worked neatly, was informative in explaining each step of the project, and was very considerat. I would definitely recommend Bath Fitter to anyone considering a similar project."

"Revive Renovators found other things with their house, and they fixed them for us. They went above and beyond. There's nothing bad I can say about this company. They were really super good, and I hate to see them go, and I'm going to miss them. They are very honest and respectful."

"Roger was great! He did some drywall ceiling repair from a roof leak. He kept in touch while awaiting for payment from the roofing company. He arrived when he said he would. Meticulous workmanship and very personable. I will call on Roger next time I need a project completed."

"We had a FANTASTIC experience working with Mario and his team creating a bathroom (from scratch!) in our upstairs bedroom. Mario is ALWAYS on time, responsive to questions, and incredibly kind. His work is impeccable, and his attention to detail incomparable .Our bathroom looks like an upscale spa. We have since called him for other projects around our house because we know how wonderful, smart, and trustworthy he and his team are! We HIGHLY recommend him!"

"We had Tom Olson replace two toilets in our home. He was very informative, efficient and meticulous during the install. He was a pleasure to work with. He answered any questions we had and he definitely gained our confidence. We have used Cellino for a sink piping problem and the technicians were also very good at their job. We appreciate all the donations that Cellino does. It is nice to see a company pay forward to the Community it services. We will recommend the company in the future."

Bathtub Replacement questions, answered by experts

You can use a new bathtub after 24 to 48 hours. It's best to double-check with your plumber, though, because the time can depend on the type of bathtub installed and special process or materials used. For example, certain sealants need longer to cure, or if the installation involves extensive plumbing work, the plumber might want you to wait.

Whether converting a tub to a shower is worth it depends on your personal circumstances and priorities. For many, a shower is a safer option that reduces the risk of slip-and-fall accidents, making it a valuable upgrade. It can also be a worthwhile conversion if a shower is more practical for your lifestyle and you rarely use the tub. However, there are potential downsides to consider. The cost, which can range from $1,200 to $8,000, can be a deterrent. Additionally, if you have young children, a bathtub is often easier for bathing them. Finally, removing the only bathtub in a home can potentially lower its resale value in the eyes of some buyers.

DIY installation of a walk-in tub is not recommended as it is a challenging and risky project that requires advanced plumbing knowledge. Professional installation is crucial to ensure a proper and safe setup, water-tight conditions, adherence to local building codes, and the preservation of your product's warranty.

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.

A peeling bathtub is not a good thing. It’s a sign that the finish is coming off, and continued exposure to water and cleaning products can continue to damage the finish and eventually the underlying structure of the tub. What starts as a few chips or flakes can worsen into large chunks peeling off.
