Are one-day bath remodels worth it?
If you live with Limited Mobility, here is what a one-day bathroom remodeling job really gets you.
A bathroom finished in a day can sound too good to be true, especially when you are living with Limited Mobility and the tub or shower has to be right. You may worry that fast means cheap materials or a rushed job. That worry is fair. Here is how to tell a quick job from a careless one.
A day sounds short because most people picture a full remodel. This is different. Only the tub or shower is replaced, and the rest of the room stays as it is. That is why the work can move fast. For someone with limited mobility, it also means fewer days without a safe place to wash and less mess to walk around. Fast does not have to mean cheap. What matters is the product going in and who stands behind it.
Most jobs take as little as one day. A few take a second day, and that is rare. Larry G. wrote this about a walk-in shower stall he had remodeled: "Job completed in 1 1/2 days." What your quote looks like depends on your space and your choices. The size and layout of the tub or shower space shape the quote. So do the base, the wall style and finish, the fixture finish, and extras like a seat, shelves or grab bars. For a walk-in tub, the tub size and the accessibility and wellness features you choose count too. The quote covers the product and the installation.
This week, ask for a design visit. A designer comes to your home and looks at how you move through the bathroom. Where do you reach? Where do you steady yourself? Where would a seat help? Call Love Your Bath and ask the designer to tell you whether your job is one day or longer. Plan to be home for that visit. Then ask about the Jacuzzi® system itself and the lifetime warranty that covers the product and the work for as long as you own the home.
Once it is done, getting clean looks different. You might step into a barrier-free or low-threshold shower, or sit on a built-in seat in a walk-in tub. Grab bars sit where your hands naturally reach. The crew goes over every detail with you, so you know how it all works. Installs take as little as one day, and you end up with a bathroom that feels safer to use.
What our customers say
"What a great company to work with. From the salesman to the installer, everything moved very smoothly.. Our bathroom was installed and just two days. The installer was very thorough and worked very hard to work around us in our home leaving our home the same way he found it when he first arrived. I suggest if you’re looking for a new bathroom, give them a try."
"J westfall did an excellent job. Very polite and informative and worked fast very pleased"
"Dale was very pleasant to work with. He also was very focused on the job, kept dust/ dirt at a minimum, explained what he was doing when I asked, and left everything very clean at the conclusion of the project. He also gave me instructions on cleaning and care of the product."

what to avoid when renovating a bathroom
The common mistakes are tearing out more than you need, hiring several trades who blame each other, and choosing materials with no real warranty. Replace only what needs replacing, use one company that installs and stands behind the work, and get the warranty in writing when the job is done.
