"We contracted Unique Designs LLC to replace 2053 square feet of old carpet with tile. Alan Pando, the owner, walked us through the tile selection process, in which direction the wood plank tile would be installed for best eye appeal, removal of the existing carpet, prepping the surface, and installing the tile. Alan set hours between 8 AM and 3 PM Monday through Friday. His crew was on time, never late, and promptly left at 3 PM. Laying tile involves geometry, particularly on curved walls, prepping the surface such that the end result is smooth as silk, and minimizing waste. The complexity level of tiling multiple rooms meant we had to work sequentially emptying one room then moving to another – this was accomplished flawlessly. The crew – Javier, Ulysses, Terry, and John – were respectful and highly enjoyable to have in the home. They helped move very heavy furniture and a weight machine, cut the tile outside, and didn’t break anything. And they worked at a breakneck pace. The job was completed in 10 days. Since our slab had some surface cracks and was uneven in places grinding and patching had to be done. They took care to contain the very fine concrete dust, masking off rooms with sheet plastic as needed. This is our second major project with Unique as they also installed a custom range hood and new tile backsplash in our kitchen with equally appealing results. The guys work with some music (set at a nice level) which somehow always seemed to match what we like also, a bonus over listening to floor grinding and saw work. They also watched the fort while we made a few appointments in town, another bonus that allows our daily life to move on with minimal disruption, key when one is living in the home as it is remodeled. The resulting surface is level, linear, and accurate with no high edges or jagged cuts. Tile spacers insured the outcome would be perfect and the grouting was on the money as well. Given the complexity of working around our lives and the scope of the work we could not be more pleased."

FAQs for bathtub installation and replacement projects in Santa Teresa, NM

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 Out-of-date features and visible water damage are other red flags.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.
