"We converted a sun room and kitchen into a larger kitchen. Claudio handled everything including installing a ceiling beam to replace a structural wall. It was a complete transformation. The craftsmanship on the part of all of the subcontractors was excellent. Claudio’s strength is getting the job done- he carries out your plans."
"Mr Freeman has been one of my best finds on Angies List. He was very quick to call me back (my initial call was after hours) and was able to come by and look at what we needed done within a couple of days. Once we agreed on the work to be done and the price for that work he showed up on the day he said he would and completed the work within the time he said he would.. When I noticed a small issue with the back door that was replaced he was there the day after I called him to fix it (without any hemming or hawing about it as I have experienced with other contractors). Really couldn't be happier with everything. Freeman Repair and Remodeling will be the ONLY company i'll call for any future work that needs to be done to this house or any other I may own. "

Bathtub Replacement questions, answered by experts
What you include in your bathroom remodel will depend on your budget, personal preferences, and the current condition of your bathroom. Bathroom renovations often involve changing out the shower or tub, faucet, showerhead, tiles, flooring, mirrors, sink, cabinets, and vanities. You may also want to upgrade the wallcovering, adding new wallpaper or paint.
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.
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.
A good soaking tub will allow you to completely submerge yourself in the water, so it needs to be at least 20 inches deep. Luxury soaking tubs are 24 inches deep so that you can easily have enough space to be submerged in the water once the tub is full.
The cost to replace a bathtub is $2,000 to $9,400.Whether you want to spruce up your bathroom or your existing bathtub is not functioning correctly, purchasing a new tub costs about $5,700 with installation. Prices depend on the type and size of the tub.
