"Excellent customer service. Excellent finished product. West Shore Home came to install a shower in one bathroom and bathtub/shower in another bathroom. Their customer service is top tier! They took extra caution to ensure they didn’t damage or disrupt my home or other furniture as they carried their equipment in and out of the house. They encouraged me to see the progress as they worked. (Nothing to hide is always a good thing.) When I expressed surprise and disappointment with one aspect of the design, they immediately began solutioning the issue."

With over 25 years' of experience, we are committed to providing quality workmanship and superior customer service on all our applications. We at Roland Plumbing Services, LLC, strive to maintain our reputation as a high quality, very service-oriented company, with our focus being customer satisfaction. We do not do waterproofing work.
"This experience has taught me about affluent fees. I was charged triple the typical price for the work they performed. It was my mistake for not getting other estimates, but he came highly recommended. Being charged a few dollars more but being charged triple the price (at the high end) is, to me, unethical. This must be one of the worst experiences that I have ever had working with a contractor. I am far from having that or living that life. Appearances can be deceiving. If I questioned if I was overcharged based on presumed affluence, the company's response to my concerns definitely confirmed it. I see that this company has received many 5 stars (even though many are older ratings), but my experience has been one of the worst that I have ever had, and I definitely would not recommend it based on my overall experience. Oh, I did not mention that they did not even stop the leak at first; I had to point out to them that the pipe was still leaking, and that did not fix the right section. It is a good thing I looked before they left. The leak was the main reason I called the company, not the installation. Because I trusted the person who made the recommendation, I did not do my due diligence in selecting this contractor. I did not get other quotes, and I basically threw my common sense out the window. Lessons learned: 1. Always get at least three estimates if possible. 2. Do not blindly trust someone just because they came recommended. 3. Make sure that you fully understand the work being performed and that you have explained your concerns. Ask for an itemized estimate so that you can clearly see what you are paying for (labor and materials). Of course, there are always two sides to a story; however, I hope my experience will help someone else, especially women, when deciding on a contractor."

You might need a new bathtub if you're noticing leaks, cracks, or stains that just won't come out. Most tubs last around 20 years, but acrylic and fiberglass ones might only last 10 to 15 years. If mold or mildew has become a problem, or if your tub feels outdated or isn't as accessible as you'd like, it could be time for a replacement. Taking care of these issues now can prevent bigger problems later, like water damage, and make your bathroom a safer, more comfortable space.
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.
Yes, you can refinish your tub if it's structurally sound but has surface imperfections like scratches, chips, or stains. Refinishing costs $330 to $630, depending on the material, and is a cost-effective alternative to full replacement. The process involves repairing any damage and applying a new coating, giving your tub a refreshed appearance. While refinishing can extend the life of your bathtub and restore its look, it's a temporary solution and may need to be redone every few years to maintain its condition. It's ideal for tubs in good shape that need a cosmetic update.
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.
