"From start to end the kitchen renovation process went extremely well. Don made sure to include me through it all and made sure I was pleased with each step. Whenever a decision is needed, Don explains the options and impact of each. He and his employee, also named Don, are prompt every day and attentive to details. They do the work right with high quality workmanship. I am extremely grateful to have had this experience that has resulted in beautiful kitchen. Without hesitation, I plan to contact Don Volkert for any future projects I need done."

"Martin's got it done right, on budget and on time. Martin and Ivan were great to work with. We love our new bathroom and connecting room. They did drywall, flooring, toilet and sink/vanity install."

"I had my 1960s paneled and drop ceiling basement room remodeled. I cannot tell you how pleased I am at the upgrade. Along the way Gary answered many emails and calls in a timely manner, usually within the hour. He gave me updates of when certain parts of the project would be worked on and made suggests on things that I hadn’t thought about ( like replacing the drafty original windows while construction was happening). He picked out doors and ceiling fans that were perfect since I am not good at decorating. Because GJP has all their own contractors there was no wait time between the remodeling of the walls and the electrical work that needed to be done. All the workers were do polite and diligent and cleaned up the area. I cannot put into words how wonderful the whole process has been and have already given references to friends. "

"The Best is Close to Home We can’t say enough good things about First State Bath. Supporting a local company mattered to us. They are part of our community and it truly showed in the pride, care, and accountability they brought to the project. It’s not the same with a big chain company. From the start, everything felt easy and professional. We received a prompt, detailed bid—even during a holiday—and were impressed by the wide selection of beautiful, high-quality products and colors. Nothing felt low-end, and the pricing offered outstanding value for the level of craftsmanship we received. The installation team arrived on time, were friendly and respectful, and consistently went above and beyond. When they discovered the subfloor beneath our old bathtub was uneven, they replaced it at no additional cost—simply because they wanted the job done right. Their attention to detail was matched by how clean and organized they were, leaving the work area spotless each day. They promised a two"

"I hired First State Bath for converting a bath tub to a walk-in shower. I feel so thankful to them from introduction through job completing. They listened carfully to my requests and proposed a small suggestion, but it turned out very special to my need. It was choice of 54" long instead of 60". It adds space for easy moving in the bathroom. It might have no impact to most people, but is very helpful and special in my situation. The project is worked out very well with on time, clean and high quality. They did great job at very reasonable cost."

"We did find other contractors that claimed they could "do it cheaper" but we know where that can lead. Bruce was able to prove the quality of materials and workmanship both on paper and in-person. No subcontractors was a big deal for us and the crew was awesome! The fact that they accommodated our wish to have it installed before Christmas was very generous. The 2 year labor warranty really put us at ease. We have zero regrets and are extremely impressed with the honesty, professionalism and quality of the project and the crew. "

FAQs for bathtub installation and replacement projects in Newark, DE

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.
