"The installer showed up on time and went straight to work. We discussed a couple of issues he ran into and these were resolved to my satisfaction. It's been a few motnhs since the bathtub was removed and the new shower installed. There have been no problems."

"We've had experience with renovations in the past, and this was by far our best experience. Frank was transparent and good at communicating. We stayed completely on budget (aside from a few things we added at the end), and the timeline for the most part was met as promised. (We were aiming to be done by Christmas, and aside from the cabinet crown molding and 4 drawer faces, everything was done). Chris, whom did most of the work in our kitchen, was fantastic. Personable, great workmanship, and provided suggestions and input based on his experience. Frank and Chris were also very easy to work with as we wanted to own some of the design elements but needed the helping installing them - i.e. farmhouse sink, backsplash, lights, island design, etc. Frank and Chris were clear about the specs that needed to be met, we purchased the items, and then they installed/built them. It was an easy partnership, and we would work with G&G Kitchen and Bath Restoration again."

"We wanted a bathroom that would be safer and easier to use as we get older, and this team made it happen. They installed a walk-in shower with a bench and grab bars, non-slip flooring, and wider door access. Everything looks beautiful, but most importantly, it feels secure and comfortable. The crew was kind, patient, and truly listened to what we needed."

"My husband and I just completed adding a new bathroom in our basement we have wanted for years and two weeks in, couldn’t be happier with the results! We used Bathroom Boys which we found off Angie’s list and they did an exceptional job from start to finish (about six total). Easy to schedule off email, they were professional, on time, made things easier than I expected. We wanted a sleek design and with high-quality fixtures and picked out everything using our designer which they worked with. We worked with Sam and they completed on schedule and hassle-free. Highly recommend Bathroom Boys if you want to add a bathroom."

"Mihai and the Norpro crew were incredible. We gutted our primary bathroom and did some minor renovations to two other bathrooms. We did all of this in the pandemic amidst several supply chain issues and delivery delays. Despite all odds against the renovation, Norpro was phenomenal to work with. They were thorough, detailed oriented, and very easy to work with. Mihai communicated with us throughout the project making it easy to understand the timeline and manage expectorations for the project. I highly recommend Norpro Services for all your contracting needs. We would without a doubt hire them again in the future."

"The Installers Daniel and Fabian did a Fantastic Job with Installing a Walk in shower and also our half Bath. We were very pleased with their work, they cleaned up Immaculately after themselves. We could not be happier with our Bathrooms. So glad we went with Premier Pro for the work, would recommend them."

"They very very punctual, professional, and did a fantastic job. Quality of work was superb and you cannot tell at all where they repaired drywall due to leaks and water lines that had to be replaced. I will be using them again when i replace the floor in my kitchen next year."

FAQs for bathtub installation and replacement projects in Chicago, IL

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.
