"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!"
"Great sale experience! Took the time to go through options, and set expectations that were exceeded. Installation was great as well! The sent out someone when it worked for my schedule. Will be using again for other projects! This was for a bathtub and surround replacement"
"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."
Bathtub and shower liners come in different colors, so make sure you select one to match the rest of the bathroom. Hire a local bath liner installer for the job since they have the expertise, tools, and materials to install it correctly. Request at least three quotes from various contractors and compare their rates and services.
The cost to install a shower or a tub is roughly the same. Shower installation costs range from $2,400 to $8,800 and vary depending on the type and size, materials used, and the complexity of the features. For similar reasons, the average bathtub cost can range from $2,000 to $9,400.
The average cost to convert a tub to a shower is around $3,000, but prices can range from $1,000 to as high as $15,000. A more typical range is between $1,200 and $8,000. The final cost depends on several factors, including the amount of plumbing work required, the size of the shower, and the type of materials and fixtures chosen. A prefabricated shower stall is a more budget-friendly option, while a custom shower with features like luxury tiles, unique tiling, smart technology, or accessibility features will be at the higher end of the cost spectrum.
Technically, yes, you can put a shower on a Roman tub, but it's not common. The vast majority of Roman tubs are standalone models. Adding a shower would involve installing a ceiling-mounted curtain rod or a custom glass enclosure, as well as redoing the plumbing, making it neither easy nor budget-friendly.
Installing a clawfoot tub with a minimum of 6 inches of clearance from surrounding walls allows ample room for the faucet and pipework, makes cleaning easier, and reduces the chance of moisture being trapped between the tub and the walls. It might need to be closer if the faucet comes directly out of the wall.
