You are close to booking the work, then the permit question pops up. Nobody wants a project held up partway, or a problem when the house goes on the market. In Daytona Beach, in Volusia County, the fix is to ask early, before you sign anything.

Permits can feel murky. A neighbor's story from another town may not apply to you. What you need is a clear answer for your own Daytona Beach address.

The work covers only the shower area. The shower is removed, a genuine Jacuzzi® tub is set in, and the surrounding walls are refreshed in your style. The size of the space, the tub, the wall finish and extras like grab bars set how big it gets. Your floors and vanity are left as they are.

Here is what to do now. Book a free design visit with Love Your Bath and put the permit question on your list. A designer comes to your home, listens and builds a custom plan with options and a free quote. Bring up permits at that visit so the answer is settled before work starts. Nicole J. wrote that the team "answered all my questions." Do not let a project begin while the question is still open.

With the permit question answered, you can enjoy the rest. Products carry a lifetime warranty that covers you for as long as you own the home. You get a tub to relax in and the comfort of knowing you asked before the work began.

What people in Daytona Beach say

★★★★★

"I replaced a shower that had been installed by another local company several years ago. It leaked and they would not not stand behind their warranty. The replacement showered by love your bath is far superior to the original one I think the quality is far better. They did a great job with installation and it was done at a fair price. I would highly recommend them."

"Sales rep Greg did a great job covering the details and presenting all options on our tub to shower conversion. He spent a few hours on site during the installation. Brian and J did a great job on the installation. Love our shower!"

"Scott and Jose made the process of getting a new bathtub/shower very easy. They visited my home and presented multiple samples to choose from, educated me about the products, and answered all my questions. They took accurate measurements of the bathtub/shower. Both has friendly fun personalities. During the process, Scott communicated with me via text to keep me updated on the products and installation. The day of installation went exactly as described- Randy showed up on time and he was able to get the installation and cleanup completed by the end of the day. I love my guest bathroom and I plan to hire them again for my master shower."

The cost depends on the space, the tub you choose and the wall surround style. We replace only what is needed, so it is far less than a full remodel. A designer measures at home and gives you a free, written quote.
