I had been researching and interviewing for near 2 years, only to learn from each subsequent contractor, builder, or bath installer that time frame HAD to be at least 3 days, if not longer; depending on 'what they
find behind the tub/shower walls'.
Seriously?
Mostly, from past experience, I knew enough to realize that many building companies count on starting the job in combo with disappearing to bid other jobs, along with juggling several staff members, depending on their capabilities and experience. In short, a mismatched,
mangled tangle of poor scheduling and incomplete instruction.
During the appt with Palmer, he provided information about Bath Fitter, and took time to look at the job site, and understand that a one bedroom, one bath condo had no space for long delays. He was able to sort timing and materials to perfection. He estimated no more than two days, but thought it could be done in a day and half.
What helps most in the Bath Fitter process is that they sell, manufacture and install, all within one company. Products used in manufacturing shower pans and walls and doors are all made in the USA, and their
manufacturing plant is in Tennessee. After everything is measured and
specified, the order goes for manufacture, is then shipped, and an installation date is sorted for the customer by the office staff.
An intelligent and smooth operation from beginning to end.
Top this off with guaranteed pricing, no matter what they 'find behind
the walls' . ..
Aaron, my installer, arrived on time, as appointed, worked without interruption from morning to late afternoon, and kept a clean work site
throughout. He laid floor coverings as well as bathroom sink & cabinet
coverings, and vacuumed up debris as he worked.
Excellent company, top quality finish; you will NOT be disappointed~!
