"Excellent customer service. Excellent finished product. West Shore Home came to install a shower in one bathroom and bathtub/shower in another bathroom. Their customer service is top tier! They took extra caution to ensure they didn’t damage or disrupt my home or other furniture as they carried their equipment in and out of the house. They encouraged me to see the progress as they worked. (Nothing to hide is always a good thing.) When I expressed surprise and disappointment with one aspect of the design, they immediately began solutioning the issue."

A. R. Crowell Plumbing takes great pride in their work. Our goal is to be the plumber that you can depend on. We offer same day response, reasonable rates & professional work. Call today.
"We had a great experience with A R Crowell Plumbing! We knew the project of replacing our water main pipe would be expensive, but A R Crowell beat out the competition with their pricing! They even handled all the permits that were needed with the county. The day came and there were complications not originally foreseen, and the entire team handled it well. There was an additional charge for the new work, but that was already stipulated in the signed contract. No hidden fees, no trying to sell us a contract or things we did not need. We will definitely use them again! As a side note, I will say that the communication could improve in some areas, but I will honestly take a fair price with excellent staff and quality work over some slight confusion any day. Thanks to the excellent A.R. Crowell team for their great work!"

"This company is a one man show. Provider is very unprofessional and unethical. He stated that there was no warranty on an icemaker that he installed. Don't use this person you will have definite regrets! Provider checked my icemaker that was not working properly. Provider stated that it needed to be replaced. Provider went to pick up an icemaker and stated the cost of 215.00. When provider came back the icemaker was operating. I told the provider that the ice maker was working and provider stated that the ice tray was dirty and peeling and still needed to be replaced. I questioned the provider about replacing the icemaker as it only looked stained from the hard water in our house. The provider insisted that it was peeling and needed to be replaced. Hesitantly, I allowed provider to replace the icemaker. I had texted the provider and asked him to provide a warranty for the icemaker and labor. I received no reply via text. I resent the text on Friday March 01 and the provider replied that he sent the information. I checked my email and the provider resent the invoice and added that there was no warranty on the icemaker and the labor was 30 days. I texted the provider and asked who the manufacturer was and their contact information. He texted back Tribles Appliance. I called Tribles Appliance in Rockville, MD and was told that all parts have a one year warranty. At this point I knew the provider was lying and did not want to deal with him at all."

You might need a new bathtub if you're noticing leaks, cracks, or stains that just won't come out. Most tubs last around 20 years, but acrylic and fiberglass ones might only last 10 to 15 years. If mold or mildew has become a problem, or if your tub feels outdated or isn't as accessible as you'd like, it could be time for a replacement. Taking care of these issues now can prevent bigger problems later, like water damage, and make your bathroom a safer, more comfortable space.
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.
Yes, you can refinish your tub if it's structurally sound but has surface imperfections like scratches, chips, or stains. Refinishing costs $330 to $630, depending on the material, and is a cost-effective alternative to full replacement. The process involves repairing any damage and applying a new coating, giving your tub a refreshed appearance. While refinishing can extend the life of your bathtub and restore its look, it's a temporary solution and may need to be redone every few years to maintain its condition. It's ideal for tubs in good shape that need a cosmetic update.
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.
