"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."
"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."
"They recently remodeled 3 bathrooms and the kitchen. Their work was excellent, they stayed on schedule, the team was very professional and friendly, and their price was very competitive. I would highly recommend them and we plan to use them again in the future."
"Dan and the team at Puget Sound B&R transformed my bathroom beautifully. The finishes are clean and high-quality, and the whole process was smooth and professional. I?m very happy with how everything turned out."

Bathtub Replacement questions, answered by experts
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.
It is possible to install a two-in-one unit that has both a shower and a walk-in tub so you can still have both in smaller bathrooms or provide a showerhead for those in the household who prefer taking showers. You’ll hear these referred to as walk-in tub and shower combo units. Keep in mind that these combo units can take up more space than a standard shower or tub, and you’ll most likely need to hire a pro to install one.
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.
Labor is the most expensive part of a bathroom remodel. If you’re doing a major remodel, structural changes (such as moving walls) and plumbing reconfiguration can be costly. For a standard remodel, the big-ticket items include tiles and new tub or shower fixtures.
Different bathtub materials have various advantages and disadvantages. Cast iron and copper are considered the most durable materials because they are dense and resistant to damage from scratches or dents. However, cast-iron tubs are heavy, expensive, and may not be suitable for upper floors. Copper offers unique benefits but requires regular chemical treatment to prevent a patina from forming, making cast iron a less maintenance-intensive option. Porcelain is a good second choice for durability. For those on a budget, acrylic is a popular option, though it is less durable.
