"Bath Expo was so good. The communication was excellent in discussing the process of my installation of a new bathtub. They were forthright in all aspects of the installation.Joe Gerritsen and Lisa were great . Very thorough in their work and went above and beyond their respective roles. Clean up was done extremely well. Would highly recommend."
"JR Bath converted our old tub into a walk in shower. I'm thrilled with our new shower. They finished it in 1 day. Eric the installer was respectful & consulted us so everything was placed for our convenience. I can't recommend them highly enough."
"We had our shower area replaced and the install took 1 day. The team was very knowledgeable and helpful and the shower was customized to my liking!! Would highly recommend !!"
"Owner Matt did a phenomenal job. He stayed with us and was patient until we were 100% satisfied with the job. Easy to work with, flexible with changes or additions to the job and truly made sure it was done well. We opted to finish some of the things ourselves (like painting) but can’t wait to enjoy this new bathroom!"

"Chris with Friesen Family Renovations, LLC was very professional and thorough in the work he has completed. He installed a new screen door, replaced my tub stem and faucet, repaired my subfloor in the kitchen and installed brand new LVP flooring to replace old and water damaged flooring. He also mounted a television for me, and did some drywall repairs as well. I would recommend this business to anyone looking for quality and dependable work!"
"This experienced father-and-son duo completed a nearly complete bathroom remodel and did a wonderful job. The project was a challenge, requiring the removal and replacement of the drywall on three walls before installation of a new tub and surround, toilet, floor covering, and baseboards while working around the existing vanity. The investment was very reasonable, and they were a pleasure to have in my home. Highly recommend."
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.
We don’t recommend using a tub liner to cover up cracks in a bathtub. Instead, you should repair the cracks yourself if you have the experience or hire a pro. Cracks may seem like small surface imperfections, but they can lead to much larger issues, so repair them as soon as you can.
The water supply lines run underneath the bathtub. These two pipes deliver cold and hot water to the bathtub—the cold water comes from the main water supply, and the hot water comes from the water heater. The pipes are made from copper, cream-colored plastic CPVC, or red and blue PEX tubing.
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.
Resurfacing a bathtub is less expensive than replacing one. Resurfacing a tub costs about $330 to $630, depending on the material, while replacing a tub costs an average of $4,150. But remember that resurfacing is a temporary solution for a worn-out tub, and you may need to refinish a tub every few years to keep it looking new.
