".Great experience. They kept me abreast of the schedule for install. They arrived on time, worked tirelessly throughout the day. As our shower space was unusually large(not a standard bathtub size), the install required two days and second day went just as smoothly as the first. The custom made shower base fit perfectly once the demolition work was completed. The install crew (two men) were very courtis and informative. They kept everything clean and once complete, the new shower looked as if it had been built into the home originally./ Hats off to Kyle H. and Daniel C, they are definitely a "five Star" team and gentlemen as well."

"My installer was meticulous and paid attention to every little detail. He did excellent workmanship and had pride in his accomplishment. I love the results and was glad I had the shower enlarged and the ceramic is beautiful. It is a pleasure to take a shower."

"Carlos came and inspected my roof to find the source of a leak tracking the exhaust pipe after downpours. He showed me the rubber flanges on all 4 exhaust pipes had deteriorated, and replaced them,and caulked the chimney and other areas which had similarly deteriorated. A week later, similar leak! I called the office and Carlos came out the next day and hosed down the roof, while he EXHAUSTIVELY rechecked the caulking, shingling, went into the attic to check the subroofing, etc. He finally fashioned some copper covers for the flanges as the only access point he/I could imagine based on the examination of everything else. Yesterday we had a massive rainstorm, and NO WATER at all. Carlos' conscientious work solved a problem whose solution was not obvious. I am very pleased with his work and the outcome."

"Fulcher Construction is the way to go! He is very professional and extremely efficient. We had a sudden and quite massive leak on our first floor, he identified the problem being the upstairs bathtub and accessed it with minimal damage and repair. We were so thankful he was ready and willing to fix it for us at such short notice and got us back to a fully functioning home within the day. 10/10 would use again and recommend!"

"Our outside faucet was damaged and needed replacement. Adam and his partner arrived promptly and provided a very reasonable estimate to replace the faucet. They kept us informed every step of the way, were quick and efficient with the repairs and left the workplace spotless. We chose The Pipe Doctor because they are a locally owned company with a spotless service record. We were completely satisfied with their service and would not hesitate to use them again."

FAQs for bathtub installation and replacement projects in Charlottesville, VA

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.
