"Our experience with Oasis was excellent. Total bathroom remodel from the removal of bathtub and installing a shower to new floor, vanity, countertop, toilet, lighting fixture, painting to final cleanup they ran a couple of hours over their original estimated completion of the project. We will be calling them when we're ready for the next bathroom."
"Kevin came out quickly to give me a quote to replace my old bathtub and wall panels. He listened to what I was needing and wanting out of the project and he quoted me competitively with the other quotes I had received. I chose his quote because he was personable, flexible and the reviews of his previous jobs were excellent. I could tell he was trustworthy and very professional and he was able to start the project within 2 weeks.
On the day of the project Saul and Luiz came on time and completed the entire remodel in one day. Amazing guys that do top notch, quality work. I am very pleased with how my new tub and shower look and I would definitely recommend them to anyone need a bathroom remodel."
"I wanted to have a conversion to a walk in shower primarily as a safety feature to avoid slips and falls in a bathtub shower environment. The end result is a beautiful, ADA compliant walk in shower that is luxurious and provides the safety measures I needed. Thank you Jacuzzi and my install crew, Randy, Ty and JD, I appreciate you guys and your work ethic. I'm happy with my decision to have this project done by Jacuzzi."
"This firm specializes in shower stall/bath tub redos. They do not have full capabilities to redo a full bathroom. Thier estimates are not itemized. Their cost seems very high. We passed on them as we needed someone to do the whole bath room."
"I?m Dan, and I couldn?t be happier with my new bathroom. Puget Sound B&R delivered excellent craftsmanship and paid attention to every detail. Well done job!"

Bathtub Replacement questions, answered by experts
A professional bathtub installation or replacement typically takes one to three days, depending on the project's complexity and any necessary alterations. If you hire a professional, most replacements can be completed in one to three days. However, if you choose the DIY route, the process could take up to a month, as it involves removing the old tub and drywall, installing the new tub, repairing the drywall, and installing new tiling.
When buying caulk, look for ones labeled for tub and tile. These have either acrylic latex or silicone compounds. This allows the caulk to stick to smooth surfaces and prevent mildew from forming.
Whether replacing a bathtub with a shower affects your home's value depends on several factors, with the most significant being whether it's the only tub in the house. Removing the sole bathtub can lower a home's value because many prospective buyers, particularly families with young children or pets, require at least one.
However, a tub-to-shower conversion can also increase home value. A modern walk-in shower is often seen as an upgrade in a secondary bathroom and can be a desirable feature for its accessibility and style, appealing to older homebuyers or those without children. The overall impact is also influenced by your local real estate market and its typical buyer demographic.
If your bathroom layout allows, installing both a freestanding bathtub and a separate shower can be an ideal solution that appeals to the widest range of potential buyers.
Updating to modern styles and efficient models can enhance bathroom appeal and increase property value.
If you have an alcove in your bathroom, you don’t necessarily need to install an alcove tub. You can choose a drop-in tub and fit the frame to the alcove. This allows you to get a more custom or spa-like look. Think cultured marble or tiling for the frame versus the simpler look of acrylic or fiberglass with an alcove tub.
