I need info on bathroom remodeling.?
I am considering using a company such as Bath Fitters, Rebath, etc. to convert my shower-tub to a large shower.
Does anyone have any current info on these types of companies that are nationally based. I'm interested in both the pros and cons on them, and would appreciate any web links that you can give me.
Thanks for your help.

Just be sure to get at least three estimates. People often forget when they have workmen in that instead of asking for an estimate, ask for a quote. What's the difference? An estimate is just that, a rough idea of a price and it can rise dramatically (you can bet it will never be less that the estimate!) However a quote is a fixed price. But it can work both ways because if there is a problem, the workman may patch up a problem thereby saving him money unless you watch him carefully of course.

I had one of these companies send someone to my house for an estimate. What surprised me was the cost. They advertise it as being cheaper, but really it's not by that much. It was quite expensive, in the thousands of dollars. It may be worth saving up a little bit more and doing a proper reno.
