""I hired them to take out my old bathtub/shower and install a new shower. It is absolutely beautiful. Josiah & Robert F from the Birmingham office came out do do the job. They had some issues that was no fault of theirs and I was very pleased that they went above and beyond to complete the job. These guys are very professional and handle things like seasoned veterans. They were both very polite and took extra care not to disturb any other area of the house. They left our home as clean as they found it. I would highly recommend this company because of the outstanding work of Josiah and Robert!"

"From the design appointment through the installation this company was the best. Always kept in contact with me and was here at the date and time to install the shower. Once here the installer Daniel Rolufs was great. Highly recommend them."

"Mad City was personable and professional with all that needed to be done at my home. Patio door replacement, bedroom window replacement, and shower stall installation. They even hired a subcontractor to repair a hole in the ceiling that was caused by a leaky bathtub. My highest complements!"

"At the start of the project, the sales crew and the Project Manager did a walk thru on the project. I also provided a drawn layout with specifics on some special items that were to be included. They said it would take between 4-6 weeks to complete. Everybody seemed to be on the same page.   <br /> The work crew started fast the first week. There was somebody at the house every day working. The second week, there were fewer workers and less work got done. Every week after that, we never knew if somebody was coming to work at the house or not. Sometimes people would come at 9 a.m. or 10 a.m. They would leave around noon for an hour lunch, and then they'd leave for the day around 3 p.m. or 4 p.m. There started to be problems, and we had to make special arrangements with the employee to stay and meet us to discuss the problems. This happened a couple times throughout the project.   <br /> We quickly learned that the PM didn't talk to the work crew. The work crew wasn't working off of our drawing for the floor plan. The PM never gave it to them. We started leaving notes and drawings for the work crew every night so they can make corrections the next day when we couldn't be there in person. I even left my phone number for them to call me if they had questions, and they called multiple times. I had more phone calls from the work crew than the PM. The PM rarely called me except when he was returning my phone call.  <br /> Here's something I want to say about the work crew. Jericho likes to say that they have their own employees do the work. That's not necessarily the case. In my talks with the crew, I learned that there was one or two actual employees, but the rest of the workers were contractors. This was also confirmed when I called some of them and their phone message had their own company's name in the greeting; I also saw their own company logos on their vehicles. I later learned that Jericho had a complaint on file with the Better Business Bureau about this claim.  You can view this information from their website at: http://www.bbb.org/kansas-city/business-reviews/remodeling-services/jericho-home-improvements-llc-in-kansas-city-ks-99147091. Our project used three different main construction guys that were probably actual employees.  In addition to these men, there was an electrician, a plumber, another plumber for the septic connection, a crew for drywall, and a painter who were each their own companies.  (Drywall crew showed up on a weekend wanting to do work.  They didn't expect me to be there, and Jericho had told us at the beginning of the project that their "employees" don't work on weekends. I let them work because they were behind on the schedule.) <br /> About half way thru the project, we started providing specifications and website links for products we wanted to use. These were inline with the products priced in the competitor's bid, which weren't fancy or extraordinary. Some products we picked were less than what was in the accepted bid; some products were more. We figured it would all even out in the end. The PM was surprised when we started asking for different products. His papers showed Jericho's standard products which wasn't what we wanted. We learned that he didn't have a copy of the accepted competitor's proposal. (I later had to redirect him  to address the need for heating and plumbing to the septic system.)  <br /> It was about this time when we needed to select carpet. We were never given any instruction on where to go or how to pick out the carpet and pad, so we went to a Big Box store and selected what we liked and sent it to the PM, just like we did with all the other products. A week went by before we heard back from their salesman who said that they don't work with Big Box stores. They found a contractor they wanted to work with and asked us to come to the Jericho office to pick out carpet. They gave us three sample boards to choose from. Each board had a different textured carpet with about 4-6 colors on each line. All boards were the same manufacturer. The textures and colors were all similar. The samples they provided was carpet made with all recycled material. It looked like shag carpet from the 70's. We politely said that we expected to see more than three examples, and that the quality wasn't what we expected. We offered to go to their contractor's location to review other samples, but we were told that they don't do that. I provided a copy to the salesman of the carpet bid from the competitor that they accepted. I showed them the price point, which was broken out by labor and product. I knew what they were showing us was below the price point because we had already looked at carpet at the Big Box store when we had already selected what we wanted. The salesman said he would check with his contractor about additional options and get back to us. We left the meeting knowing they were trying to get us to accept a lousy product.   <br /> Since we now knew the carpet brand and line that they wanted us to choose from, we went to a variety of carpet suppliers to see if we could find another option that would work. We were trying to work with them on this issue. We learned that carpet manufacturers will provide the same carpet to different sellers, labeling the carpet differently for each seller. This makes it hard for consumers to compare apples to apples. After this research, we decided to go to Nebraska Furniture Mart because we felt they would have the widest variety of carpet in one location. It was here that we found the same product that Jericho had provided to us for review. I know this because I had photographed the samples, including the specifications. While the product line had a different name, it was the same manufacturer, color, texture and manufacturer specifications. It was well below the price point that we had agreed to in the cost proposal. At NFM, we selected several different carpet options to provide to Jericho. We sent them our choice. Later in the week another salesman followed-up with us. I heard the familiar "we don't deal with Big Box stores" story. Nonetheless, they said they would see what they could. Around a week later, they agreed to the carpet we selected at NFM, but they said they would have to use NFM's installers. They reiterated that they wouldn't be responsible for any carpet or installation defects because we weren't using their own contractor. I asked if somebody from Jericho would be onsite during the install, and was told "yes." There was no additional charges for the carpet.   <br /> Later, I called the PM to ask when the carpet would be installed. I was concerned because the wall work, ceiling grid and lighting wasn't completed. He said he'd get back to me. I didn't feel like waiting, so I called NFM myself. I gave Jericho's name as the "customer," and learned that there were multiple orders on file for Jericho. (I guess they really do deal with Big Box stores.) I had to provide my address to find my order and get the install date. My PM called me the day before the install date to give me the same information. I asked again if somebody from Jericho would be onsite during the install and was told "yes."   <br /> NFM arrived on the said date for the install. Two guys installed the carpet with no problem. They had a few questions about the floor plan because they didn't have a correct floor drawing.  I answered their questions, and they got the work done. I had no issue with the Big Box store work. i actually felt they were better workers -- efficient, professional, wanting to get it right the first time -- than some of Jericho's workers. I was glad I was there during the install because Jericho wasn't. <br /> We developed a punch list for Jericho's workers after the carpet was installed and posted it on the wall for reference. The PM was aware of this, and asked for a copy. This told me he had no plans to come out to see it or the work for himself. About  a week later, the PM came out to do his final punch list. He agreed with  a lot"

FAQs for bathtub installation and replacement projects in Saint Joseph, MO

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.
