"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."

"Great.  I had this work done just over a year ago (should have submitted review sooner).
Estimate.  Charlie examined bathroom, had plenty of samples of options to review, and provided firm fixed quote.  There were some material issues that I'll note below.  At no time did the final cost change.
Timeline.  Installation began about a month or so after I accepted the quote and paid half down for material.  I think Charile was ready in about 2 weeks, but I had business travel.  Working together to find a common acceptable period for installation was easy.
Installation.  The first day Charlie showed up with a crew of 4 to take care of the electrical work (did have another ceiling fan installed) and demolition.  Following that, there were 2 full time workers on site.  They worked long hours, well over 8 hour days.  Normall, the job would have taken about a week.  I'll give more detail on the one issue below that drew the task out longer.  The guys were good about taking care not to impact the rest of the house (carpet, etc.).  After install, they did a good job cleaning up.
During the install, there were a few minor options ... how to frame the door, orientation of tile, the color of the tile, etc.  The crew provided options and good advice (I'm no kind of interior decorator).  The part of the service was excellent.
Quality.  I have done basic carpentry and electrical work.  I believe the quality of the work to be good to excellent, both what you see and what was done "behind the dry wall."  The work that you can see is excellent.
Material.  I was a little worried about the material used for the walls as opposed to tile.  I'm pleased to say I'm more than happy with the "acrylic" (I think that's correct) walls as well as base and door.
Only issue.  The base received was not the correct one.  The second base received had a quality issue.  They guys pointed this out to me.  I'm sure it cost them money out of their pocket / profit to spend the extra time on site.  My take away from this was the guys were MY quality advocates and did what was necessary to ensure the highest quality product was used and the job was done right the first time!  Things happen.  The question is how well does your contractor support you.  While I wasn't crazy about the delay (about 3 days, not major for me).  I was thrilled the issue was immediately brought to my attention and resolved even though it took extra effort on their part.
Overall job outcome.  I feel what was quoted was provided.  Very satisfied.
1 year review ... I remain satisfied.  I have had zero issues.  Other than the glass doors (which are famous for requiring cleaning when used for bath doors - this was noted before installation).  Is the biggest maintenance job.  Caring for the bath itself has required average to minimal effort.
Give Dream Bath / Charlie a call before you have your bathroom remodeled!

"I needed bed disassembled, new bed assembled and old bed hauled away. Ancient Path and Micah called right away after project submitted in Angi. He asked a number of questions to get project details. The other suggested handymen by Angi never called. I probably should have called the other suggested handymen for more quotes. However decided Micah's quote was mostly reasonable and decided continue with them. Arrived on time. Micah and Paul quickly disassembled the old bed and removed it. Took a bit longer to assemble the new bed, but certainly way faster then I could have done it. Quiet and quick work overall. Both were professionals in appearance and their work."

"Sam and the crew did an excellent job, and provided the most positive experience with a construction company I have ever had. When I initially inquired about an estimate, I was contacted the same night and subsequently received a free on-site estimate the very next day. They were very willing to work around my schedule and minimize any inconvenience to me. They were extremely punctual and always returned any phone calls or communications, and did an outstanding job. They did not half-do anything, and cut no corners. The flooring was installed perfectly, with minimal waste, and in a timely manner. All the trim work was done quickly and efficiently, and compliments the work on the flooring. They went above and beyond to provide a positive experience. They were also extremely helpful in offering advice on anything they noticed throughout the course of the job. I truly cannot recommend them enough, and will absolutely have them back for any other jobs I encounter."

FAQs for bathtub installation and replacement projects in Arab, AL

Most tubs last an average of 20 years, or closer to 10 to 15 if they’re acrylic or fiberglass. If you’re seeing persistent leaks, cracks, stubborn stains, or mold that won’t scrub away, it’s time to start shopping for a replacement. Out-of-date features and visible water damage are other red flags. Swapping the tub now protects your bathroom from bigger (and pricier) repairs down the road.

You should install your tub in a location that complements your bathroom's layout, plumbing connections, and personal preferences. Consider placing it near existing plumbing to minimize installation costs. Many homeowners position their tubs to take advantage of natural light or scenic outdoor views, enhancing relaxation. 

Ensure there's sufficient space around the tub for easy access and safety, especially if accessibility is a concern. Ultimately, the ideal spot is where the tub fits seamlessly with your bathroom design and provides the most comfort and convenience for your needs.

Replacing a bathtub takes just one or two days if you hire a pro to handle the job. They'll remove the old tub and install the new one efficiently. If you're considering doing it yourself, be prepared for it to take much longer, possibly up to a month. That's because you'll need to remove the old tub and drywall, install the new tub, repair the walls, and maybe tackle new tiling. Weigh the time commitment against potential cost savings to decide what's best for you.

Converting your tub to a shower transforms your bathroom with a modern and accessible design. The average cost to convert a tub to a shower ranges from $2,000 to $10,500, based on the required plumbing, tiling, and structural modifications. This upgrade maximizes space while boosting functionality and aesthetics in your bathroom.
