"I had asked fr a free estimate to have my bathroom tub redone. I was under the impression te old one would be removed & replaces with a brand new one. This company leaves your existing tub and adds plastic side wall panels to it. NOT WHAT I WANTED DONE."
"I hired boss plumbing to help with my shower body replacement and the finished service was incredible. They were polite and I would definitely call them again for future projects."
"We replaced our bathtub with a walk in shower, and are extremely happy with the work that was provided. In only took one person 6 hours to complete the job, and he was very professional and the quality of work was great. Would hire them again."
"Rome Bath Remodeling recently installed a new shower in our home that was built in 1938. Knowing full well that it would not be an easy job, Phil and Dave took on the challenge and did an exceptional job.
They kept us informed throughout the process and the shower is beautiful!
Thanks to both of you!"
