"Nick and his crew did a GREAT job for us. We had a bathroom remodel done by another contractor a couple years ago, and went with an acrylic shower base rather than a mud base. The acrylic base was not supported properly and it squeaked when you stepped on it, which was immensely annoying. Nick came over and gave me a price to remove the acrylic base and install a properly supported mud tile base. This was one of the smoothest home improvement projects I've ever had done. Put simply, Nick and his guys just show up and work. They don't complain about how the last person did a poor job as so many home improvement professionals do. Clean and meticulous - they put down drop cloths all the way going up to the bathroom from the front door and cleaned up the bathroom each night before they left. They also swept up the garage where they were cutting wood. The shower now feels rock solid with a concrete base and my only regret is we didn't call Nick sooner. Last, the whole crew was super nice to my 4 year old son who loves to chat and get in the way, and that meant a lot to me. I will use Nick for any and all kitchen and bath issues I have moving forward - period. I'm already talking to him about replacing the vanity in my powder room. Thanks Nick for a job well done. It was a pleasure having you and your crew in our home."

"Andy Q and his crew were absolutely flawless in planning, execution and finishing up the smallest details in this complex project. He and his crew were artisans, making my small bathroom look like a million bucks! They went above and beyond what he had agreed to do and his workman were the hardest working I've ever seen. The original demolition was to take 2 days and took 1 day with the second day for hauling everything from this ancient bath with layers of tiles and floors. His bid was the lowest of Manhattan contractors, including Lowes, who was dying to offer free financing, but with no practical advice. Andy knew what I could realistically do and what was just not possible in my tiny bathroom. One contractor wanted $15K just for demolition of my 30 square foot bathroom! Even before we began and all during the project, if I texted Andy, he would call within minutes and was always available to help with advice and reassurance. The Maintenance Company representatives for my co-op, on the other hand, were horrible, with unreasonable delays in approving my project, which delayed our starting time considerably. But that is over since my bath is 95% finished !! The new custom shower doors from Paradise Glass will be installed Wednesday and I will follow up with another review. THANK YOU ANDY!!!! XXOO I have a real estate side business in Texas and have always relied on Angie's List for the best service providers for my rental properties, and have never been disappointed. But I have never been this happy, since it is MYAPARTMENT this time!! :-) me at lin"

FAQs for bathtub installation and replacement projects in University, NY

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.
