bath remodel

If you are planning a bathtub or shower replacement, you may be curious about the process. While each project will differ depending on your needs, it will follow the same basic outline.

Knowing what to expect will help you to prepare for the remodel and minimize the uncertainty. This article will cover the steps you should expect for a professional tub and shower replacement. 

Initial Consultation and Planning

The start of a bathroom remodel will typically be an in-home or virtual consultation with the remodeler. During the consultation, the remodeler will assess the goals, bathroom layout, and take measurements. 

This is a chance for a customer to share their preferences with the bathroom remodeling company. Whether you want a new bathtub or to replace a shower, this is where you develop a plan with the remodeler.

Removing the Old Tub or Shower

Once you agree upon a plan for the remodel, they will start by removing your existing bathroom features. This is typically the messiest part of the process and may be disruptive to your routine due to the noise. 

However, a professional bathroom remodeler will work to minimize the downsides of the removal. Additionally, the remodeler will inspect the underlying plumbing and structures to ensure it's safe to install a new system. 

Installing the New System

With the outdated bathtub or shower gone, the remodeler can start with the installation. The installation will depend on the intended results, but it includes getting the base, installing the walls, and sealing them.

Modern bathtubs and showers can be installed efficiently if you don't require a custom project. In many cases, the project can be finished in one or two days and bring years of functionality.

Final Inspection and Cleaning

Once the installation is complete, the remodelers will provide finishing touches and ensure it's installed properly. From the caulking to the fixtures, every component will be assessed for proper functionality.

Additionally, remodelers will thoroughly clean the bathroom and ensure that all debris is gone. If you have any questions about caring for the bathroom features, this is a good time to speak with the remodeler.
