"Cody M and Tim did an excellent job. Very professional. Showed up early and worked straight through until they were finished. They took out an old bathtub and shower and replaced it with new. Very please with their work."
"I can’t say enough about Three Rivers Remodeling, LLC. ! Dion was excellent! He followed through on contacting me when I couldn’t get responses from other companies. He made useful suggestions, listened to my opinions/concerns and was definitely customer oriented. He quoted a very reasonable price. Very professional and dedicated. Can’t thank Dion and John enough... it truly turned out to be my dream bathroom!"
"Mad City Windows and Baths have replaced two windows for us as well as replaced our bathtub shower unit in our guest bath. In all cases the jobs went great from sales visits to installation. Everything was timely, professional, and clean. We would gladly use this team again!"
"I hired Luiz to remove kitchen cabinets, dishwasher, cooktop, oven and lift hardwood flooring. He then reinstalled the cabinets and appliances. Ceramic tile was installed to perfection. He also repaired some walls and painted the ceiling. Looks great! Easy to work with, very professional and fair market value pricing too. Iâ  m recommending him to my family!"
"Dan was an absolute pleasure to work with & does amazing, detailed work. From start to finish, he worked clean, with great attention to detail. Our new tub with subway tile walls is gorgeous. We are so pleased with Dan & will be using him for future projects in our home. Very highly recommend."

"Brian came to our home to do a tub to shower installation. He was very respectful and reviewed what he would be doing. The project was completed within the time frame we were told. Again, he reviewed what he had done and how to properly care for the shower. It really looks great and we are looking forward to using it. Thank you Brian and rite window team. Respectfully Leslie Greeley Brewster Ma"
"Mark and his team were fantastic to work with. We wanted to have 2 full bathrooms and 1 half bath completely remodeled - gutted down to the studs. Mark was prompt with responses, great to collaborate with on design recommendations, and the finished product is beautiful! The entire team was polite and respectful, and they all did a great job with their various tasks, from demolition, framing out the new shower, tiling the floors and wet spaces, plumbing, drywalling, painting, installing fixtures and hardware, through to the final clean-up. We genuinely enjoyed having the team work at our house for several weeks because they were friendly and funny, and we were sad to see them go, but we have their beautiful handiwork to show for it."
If you love long soaks, appreciate spa-style decor, and don't mind the extra space, a Roman tub is a beautiful addition to your bathroom.
Installing a walk-in bathtub can be worth it if it improves the user's safety and independence. However, because walk-in tubs require a large investment, not every homeowner has the means or desire to install one. As an alternative, some homeowners prefer to install a walk-in shower and transfer bench instead. Walk-in showers cost between $1,150 and $8,000, making them far more budget-friendly in comparison.
Start by gutting the old fixtures and features that need to be removed, such as the tile, vanity, and flooring. You may benefit by removing the toilet, even if you intend to use the same one. Next, install the new shower or tub, followed by the flooring, and then the drywall, which you should then paint. After that, install your new cabinets, vanity, countertop, sink, and faucet, in that order. Replace your light fixture next. Lastly, reconnect the toilet.
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.
The reasons not to install flooring underneath a bathtub outweigh the benefits. A properly installed bathtub will keep water from reaching the unprotected subfloor underneath. Installing a tub on top of finished flooring can lead to damage and scratches to the new floor. Also, a small leak from a tub drain may be more difficult to notice if finished flooring impedes water drips.
