My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

What tub did you use?

5 years ago
I've been looking for a tub with a retro look. Our tub currently is acrylic, we are looking for porcelain on stainless, but I have yet to find one with a retro look.

    This was the original tub from 1938. We removed it from its original location and re-installed here. After installation and tile, we had it re-glazed in-place, then tub sealant. The re-glaze has a lifespan and needs to be touched-up or redone from time-to-time.
