"We replaced our bathtub with a walk in shower, and are extremely happy with the work that was provided. In only took one person 6 hours to complete the job, and he was very professional and the quality of work was great. Would hire them again."
"Lipinski Plumbing did an excellent job. Not only timely service, but they came earlier than scheduled as they had a cancellation. Will definitely hire them again and recommend them"
"Great customer service, prompt, professional and knowledgeable. I contracted for a tub/shower replacement and a second stand alone shower replacement.There are some dings in my tub, and my flooring and baseboard has damage on my stand alone. I was told that someone will be in contact to address these things. The install was yesterday so I m going to give them time to correct, last the product (not the labor) looks on the inexpensive end for the price. There is a lifetime warranty which is great. Most of all I LOVE LOVE their customer service."
"CJ can do it all…hired to drywall and insulate, change out all light fixtures, paint, misc remodeling jobs! Courteous, thorough, timely and quality driven ."

"The work looks OK from the outside. But the experience was poor . The specific product contracted for was not applied. There was damage to the insulation material under the siding because they worked off ladders versus using platforms. They dropped an expensive barn light which I had to replace at my expense. The crew was never checked on by the supervisors. It's probably my fault I did not stop the workman when I realized they did not have the correct materials and were going to install it anyway. It probably wasn't the crews fault. It was managements."
"Replaced a sidewalk. Did a great job and exceeded my expectations. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend them. They responded quickly with the estimate and the workers were great and efficient."
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.
If your tub is attached to the wall, the best material will be one that can be shaped to fit your space perfectly. A cast-polymer, acrylic, or fiberglass tub will likely be the easiest to install as a built-in because it can be designed to fit your space.
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.
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.
Options include alcove, freestanding, clawfoot, or whirlpool tubs for various preferences.
