"We switched out the vanity top and bathtub for a walk in shower for our 87 year old father. We love the results! What a beautiful product. Installation was completed within one day and the contractors were fast, professional and respectful of the home environment. The sales rep, Tony, was very knowledgeable of the product and had answers for all our questions. Definitely recommend this company."
"Marlon came out to my Dad's house (I am the Personal Representative for my Dad) and replaced several screens. He also arranged to have the gutters replaced and because of his service and explanation, I decided to go with seamless gutters. Marlon has a fantastic work ethic. He goes above and beyond to get the job done. I would recommend Marlon's Repair to anyone."
"Tim came to our home and helped us through the process of choosing the right shower and the safety features we needed for our shower. The bathtub we had was not cutting it anymore with us having to step over the tub. He was very helpful and we were very happy with that experience. Dave can to do the shower along with Ed for the plumbing and they had all the inspections done for the city. They answered all of our questions during the work. They even gathered the permits for the job without us having to do anything! They did a fantastic job installing and even brought our plumbing up to code since it needed updates. All that work only took one day! We would recommend them to anyone and we trust that they will help others in the future! Tim came to check on it afterwards and even installed a better shower rod he brought for us. Reach out to Tim and they will handle your project professionally and efficiently. Thank you guys for your help!"

"Both jobs went well. Dennis reviewed the shower job with me. There was no drywall access in place, so after examining our home's floor plan, he showed me where to cut open and frame an access panel. I completed this prior to his arrival, and it worked well for his valve removal and installing a new Moen fixture. Dennis then replaced our outdated toilet with a Mansfield elongated toilet. Both jobs were completed in a professional, workmanship manner."
Bathtub Replacement questions, answered by experts
While tubs are fairly sturdy, you may notice cracks or holes. This kind of damage can happen from someone accidentally dropping something heavy into the tub. You might also see damage if you drop something heavy into the tub over and over again (like your extra large bottle of body wash). While you might only notice a small dent at first, this can later turn into a crack or a hole.
Also, certain cleaners that are harmful to your tub can cause damage. And if you have a fiberglass tub, you might see cracks if it was not installed properly with the right support.
Acrylic bathtubs can last up to 30 years without major issues if they receive the right care and maintenance. They can last even longer but might scratch or stain as they age. The expected longevity is a major factor when investing in a new tub. Cast-iron tubs are the longest-lasting option.
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.
Resurfacing a bathtub is less expensive than replacing one. Resurfacing a tub costs about $330 to $630, depending on the material, while replacing a tub costs an average of $4,150. But remember that resurfacing is a temporary solution for a worn-out tub, and you may need to refinish a tub every few years to keep it looking new.
The most common type of tub is the alcove; most bathtubs are shower and tub combinations. Many suburban homes feature these as the default option because they allow the flexibility for users to take a bath or a shower—a notable benefit for those with pets and young kids.
