"From start to finish, my experience with EZBath of Tomball was nothing short of extraordinary. Zach was an absolute gem, guiding my spouse and me—who knew very little about bathroom remodeling—through the entire process. His recommendations were spot on, and our bathroom, initially designed in 2005, looks astonishingly brand new. I hesitate to use it just because it's so beautifully transformed! Our contractor, Bernardo, deserves special recognition. His work ethic is exceptional; he truly goes above and beyond. The remodel involved a complete tear-out and a stunning transformation of a bare room into a masterpiece. Amazingly, Bernardo completed the entire project in just four days! The entire crew at EZBath of Tomball was outstanding. Zach expertly organized everything and handled our many questions with patience and grace. Kim, the manager, was equally impressive—always quick to respond and radiating positivity. I can't sing Bernardo's praises enough. He is, without a doubt, the best in the business, and I couldn't be happier with the outcome. Thank you, Bernardo, for your friendly demeanor and remarkable dedication! A heartfelt thank you to everyone at EZBath of Tomball! If you're considering a bathroom remodel, look no further!"

We are a kitchens and bathrooms company. We specialize in custom showers, custom cabinets and counter tops. We staff high end professionals and use sub contractors only when necessary. We also give a very detailed estimate, action oriented so you only pay for the work preformed and gives control to the homeowner.
"These guys were fantastic. They are one of the few companies out there that that actually do what they say will do. They send you daily emails around 830 am describing the activities for the day and who will be inside your house. Their communication is great - they always answer emails and texts in a very timely matter. The master bathroom we had remodeled looks great and was done in the time period they indicated at the beginning of the process. Sure, you could probably find someone cheaper and does inferior work, however we wanted it done right the first time. Nic and Sarah and the entire team exceeded our expectations!"

Warning signs include water stains on ceilings below your bathroom, musty odors around the tub area, or visible moisture around the drain connections. You might notice loose flooring, warped baseboards, or peeling paint in adjacent areas. To confirm a suspected leak, try placing dry paper towels around the drain components and checking for moisture after running water. Early detection can significantly reduce repair costs and prevent structural damage.
While minor, accessible issues might be temporarily addressed with DIY methods, most bathtub drain leaks require professional attention for lasting solutions. Amateur repairs often miss underlying problems or create new ones through improper techniques. Professional plumbers can properly diagnose the true source of leaks, which may differ from where symptoms appear. Proper repairs ensure code compliance and come with workmanship guarantees that protect your investment over time.
When performed by qualified professionals, bathtub drain repairs should last 10 to 15 years or longer. The longevity depends significantly on the materials used and your water quality. PVC repairs might last 25 to 40 years, while properly maintained copper can exceed 50 years of service. Regular maintenance, including avoiding harsh chemical cleaners and promptly addressing minor issues, helps maximize the lifespan of your plumbing system and prevents premature failures.
