"Bath Fitters end product was fine...but had to comeback for a full second day to redo shower walls not installed quite right. No extra charge but took a day out of my life. I am pleased with the final result"
"I recently had the pleasure of working with Upgrade Remodeling for a major bathroom renovation, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. From start to finish, their team demonstrated professionalism, expertise, and a commitment to excellence. Ryan, our sales representative, impressed us with his logical and convincing sales pitch. He saved us valuable time by eliminating the need for multiple vendor meetings. His thorough understanding of our needs and preferences made the decision easy. The installation process was seamless. Alex and his team did an outstanding job removing our old bathtub and installing a beautiful walk-in shower. Their attention to detail was evident in every aspect of the project. They were also incredibly respectful of our home, ensuring that the work area remained clean and unaffected. The finishing touches on our new shower were nothing short of perfection. The team’s dedication to quality craftsmanship resulted in a flawless appearance and outstanding pe"
"After a super sales job by Dana on Oct 5, 2020, we expected the job to be started in approx 8 weeks (it was on Nov 23, 2020) and that the crew would stick with it until complete. The crew was very good and polite. They kept to themselves upstairs in the master bath (due to COVID and they wore masks) and worked hard to demo our old bath and prepare for the new install. The Kohler shower with a rolling glass door was completed without issues. We only received one of the 2 vanities we had ordered and received the wrong light fixtures for above the vanities. They did install the waterproof LV floor, which is very nice and what we selected. We waited for the second vanity (decided to go with the style of the first one installed, for expediency sake) and the correct light fixtures to arrive and then get the crew back here to Radford, VA. The foreman Memphis did make several local trips to get the wall paint, the ceiling vent/light, and the towel/robe hooks we would order originally but were not included in materials brought. Four weeks from start to (not quite) finish. The bathroom looked great and we were happy and paid the balance of the cost of the bathroom upon completion, on Dec. 18, 2020. Approx 2 months later we had a leak in the under-vanity plumbing which damaged our living room ceiling. Evidently, the nuts under the vanity were not installed tightly enough and it dripped until the under sink slide-out drawer was full and leaked out of the back of the vanity down the wall to stain the living room ceiling. We shut off the water source to the vanity until the crew came again to inspect and by then I had discovered a fine crack in the back corner of my vanity, which had to have either arrived that way or happened during install. That has to be replaced. Memphis looked at the leak and asked if we had any Primer. We did, and he painted the spots (L-shaped discoloration). The stains are still there as the primer did not cover the stain Waiting on the new vanity AND the entire living room ceiling to be repainted. Jim Plecker came on April 1 to view the damage and see the crack in the vanity top. He said that the new vanity would be ordered and he would have the crew back to install the same and repaint the ceiling. It is May 9 today and I have not heard back. I am waiting and will add an addendum to this review when the job is truly Finished."
"We hired Ed to replace a damaged section of drywall ceiling in one of the bedrooms in our house. He came out quickly to give an estimate, started and finished the work when he said he would, and was very pleasant to deal with. We were very happy with the results, and he stayed at the low end of his original estimate. He even painted the finished job, which hadn't been part of our arrangement -- it was a big help to us. We'll definitely hire him again. "
"They did a good job. She had to submit like a photo but my daughter had them work on the central are of the loft. The deal was for one room. She got a lot of good ideal from her and it was worth it for her. They were professional and I did not hear anything negative."
everyone was amazing, from the initial sales order all the way through installation. The installers went the extra mile to replace my granite dinning room table top. I believe his name was Eaon. Could not believe his will to complete the install. Could not say enough good about everyone though, simply a great Company to deal with. Also, the piece of granite I found from them for the price, :) BEAUTIFUL!!!
"I did not go with this company, they refunded my money because I didn't like their design. I've reviewed this before. Please can you stop these requests to do a review. "
"Alford removed a carpenter bee damaged porch deck and replaced the 6 x 25 foot decking under the existing roof. The project was designed and installed with quality materials and professional workmanship. In the Charleston area, Alford was the most prompt and reliable company we dealt while trying to obtain bids for the deck replacement."
"These guys were awesome they arrived same day and did a great job. They are very courteous and polite. They were reasonable price would recommend them to anyone. Thank You Guys Lisa Hayslett"
Bathtub Replacement questions, answered by experts
It’s substantially less expensive to reglaze a tub than to replace it. The average cost of reglazing a bathtub is between $400 and $700, but that range may be higher based on where you live and the type of tub you have. Meanwhile, if you want to replace the bathtub, you’re looking at $2,000 to $9,400, with the average close to $5,700.
The order of your bathroom renovation should prevent damage to the completed work. Start with demolition and removing the old fixtures. Then, address structural repairs or water damage, if needed. Next, tackle the rough-in phase for plumbing and electrical work, install waterproofing, and work on wall treatments like tile or paint. Install your shower or bathtub, toilet, vanity, and sink. Flooring goes in after major fixtures but before the toilet. Lastly, install new lighting fixtures, mirrors, and other finishing touches as desired.
The time it takes to install a bathtub depends on the type of tub, the condition of the existing plumbing, and the installation's complexity. A new bathtub can be installed in four to eight hours. However, this can take longer if any additional plumbing work or bathroom modifications are needed.
A powder room cannot have a bath. If it had a bath, it would likely be considered a three-quarter bath or full bath, depending on the other features. You might hear the term “powder room” used to describe a bathroom used by guests, but it wouldn’t technically be a powder room. However, powder rooms or half baths are ideal for guests because they can use it without entering the more private areas of the home.
If you love long soaks, appreciate spa-style decor, and don't mind the extra space, a Roman tub is a beautiful addition to your bathroom.
