"Ed came to replace a defective piece of glass in a shower that they recently remodeled. I was concerned that the replacement installation might not look as good as the initial one but it came out perfect.
Ed did a great job."

"Gorgeous work!! Friendly and confident workers. We are SUPER happy with our new bathtub and shower wall. We loved our sales rep, and the installer was great too. They were both very understanding of our hectic home with three kiddos ?? we only had a shower stall in our main bathroom before the install, so we are really enjoying the deep soaker bathtub with kids! A lot less splashing on the floor. So thankful for all of the hard work put into this for us!!"

"Our bathtub was leaking and the floor was dipping. John the representative was wonderful to work with. In 2 weeks Matt the installer came out and removed our cast iron tub. He repaired the plumbing, put in a new subfloor and installed a walk in shower. He was a hard worker and answered any questions we had. Our bathroom looks beautiful! We are very happy. And there is a lifetime warranty!"
"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."
"In preparation for winter, I contracted for a roof inspection to be performed. Jason Lance nailed down shingles that were lifted up by the wind, and secured the nail heads with caulk. He also caulked around exhaust pipes on the roof. Furthermore, he reinstalled tw pieces of siding that had fallen off. He also caulked around the sump pump exhaust. Jason did provide before and after pictures of his work. In providing a cost estimate for bathroom exhaust fans replacement, he demonstrated his knowledge in home ventillation systems, due to his previous experience in home construction."

Bathtub Replacement questions, answered by experts
Ensures correct plumbing connections and secure installation to prevent future water damage.
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.
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.
You should consider replacing your bathtub if the tub—or any potential refinishing—is older than about 20 years old. However, acrylic and fiberglass bathtubs have a shorter lifespan (about 10 to 15 years). You may decide to replace your bathtub sooner if there are stains or mold you can’t get rid of, no matter how much you clean it, or if you find leaks and cracks that could lead to costly water damage.
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.
