"I had a bathtub replaced by a walk-in-shower. I am very pleased with the results. David and Daren were very professional, they were on time, they explained everything as they went, and they left everything very clean."

"The whole process of working with 5 Star was great. Alvin came out and showed me what they had to offer. No high pressure selling. He quoted me a price that was good for 5 days. Which gave me time to check out the company. The office staff helped arrange the asbestos test and scheduled the installation for days most convenient for me. Erik and his crew were professional. The demolition, installation of the plumbing, walls, and inspections by the city all worked perfectly. I was told it might take 3 days. They were done in 2. They started on a Monday morning and by Wednesday night I was able to enjoy my new shower."

"I had an old Canary yellow cast-iron tub, and replaced it for a beautiful new, safe, walk-in shower with some extra goodies. I felt the seamless one piece, water tight wall was a huge benefit and no caulking in the corners. The installer, Sang, was very enjoyable and did a fantastic job. What surprise me was, how much more money the other companies that offer acrylic were asking, it didn’t make sense. They are in their five stars."

"My bathroom went from a negative 10 rating to a positive 10 rating. He let me know when they would be here each day and what they would be doing. They were very respectful of our family and our home. He even hung new doors, and fixed a few things that were not on our original list. My dog even fell in love with him! I will definitely hire again."

"We were extremely pleased with Powers Bath & Remodel. Their representative arrived on time to provide a bid. (The competitor's representative was two hours late and failed to call, so we didn't let him in the door.) The workers arrived as scheduled and completed the job in three days, as promised. They cleaned up every day, and the new bathroom looks fantastic. We were so satisfied that we asked them to replace the floor in our main bathroom. Unfortunately, they said the job was "too small," and they were fully booked through January."

Bathtub Replacement questions, answered by experts

Installing a drop-in tub yourself is possible, especially if you’re replacing your existing tub with a new one of the same size. If you’re replacing a different type of tub, you’ll need to build the structure to hold the new drop-in tub and finish the exposed sides. The structure must be sturdy enough to hold the tub when it’s filled with water, and you’ll need to seal it. If any plumbing work is required, it’s best to call a licensed plumber who installs bathtubs.

While Medicare will pay for some bathroom modifications, it won’t pay for all modifications done to help make the room more accessible for older adults. Plus, the improvements must be approved in advance, or they won’t cover the upgrade. Check well in advance of construction if you have coverage for grab bars, walk-in tubs, wider doorways, higher toilets, and more.

Different bathtub materials have various advantages and disadvantages. Cast iron and copper are considered the most durable materials because they are dense and resistant to damage from scratches or dents. However, cast-iron tubs are heavy, expensive, and may not be suitable for upper floors. Copper offers unique benefits but requires regular chemical treatment to prevent a patina from forming, making cast iron a less maintenance-intensive option. Porcelain is a good second choice for durability. For those on a budget, acrylic is a popular option, though it is less durable.

If you don’t caulk your bathtub, then there won’t be a watertight seal between your bathtub and the wall tile surrounding it. As a result, water can seep into the wall and the floor and cause the perfect breeding grounds for mold and mildew. Not only does this require costly repairs, but mold can be harmful to those breathing it. 

The plumbing industry has standardized the sizes for bathtub drains. They are 1 1/2 inches wide to fit all standard bathtubs from 14 to 26 inches deep. The standard sizing is to ensure that the drain fits into the P trap, a special part of your piping that prevents sewer water from bubbling up into your home (yuck).
