Give this man a raise he’s a beast!!!

Dude does not F-around, he works....

[@tallie338]

He is good. A one man job. And knows what he is doing. I wish I can do home remodeling , like I am this sure of myself. Great job. God bless.

UPDATE: I interviewed for an Installer position in early January. I think they are looking for people younger than I am, ( 56 ) Although age didnt come up in the interview, my experience in construction and painting didn't either which seemed to indicate they were looking for a more youthful labor force. Also, if you are considering applying for an installer position with these guys and you have tons of construction experience, you may want to refrain from exposing too much of what you know.You don't want to run the risk of sounding cocky. My take away from my interview was that experience is no substitution for being really good at job interviews, That is, if your not too old to be a good fit.

Dam that must be good ROÍ for some plastic Pan and walls, some drywall , little piping. Have to start asap

[@-carlos-danger1891]

This guy is really great. Wish I could find 10 just like him. I have a few friends. That have used bath fitters. They ended up costing around $8000 in the GTA. I could build a pretty nice custom shower for 8g's.

[@bathfitterinlandnw]

Hi Carlos, This installer really is top notch, I agree. Every bathroom is different so it's hard to give a real guesstimate in terms of cost. We do offer free estimates, though, and will provide a to the penny quote of what it would cost to move forward. No obligation.

[@-carlos-danger1891]

@@bathfitterinlandnw I appreciate your reply. But as a general contractor I was being sincere when I said that for the cost of a Bath Fitter installation I could provide, a much better product. Better suited to the clients individual personal tastes, and superior in terms of long term performance. Having also had the opportunity to demolish bath fitter products in the past, some as young as 2 years old, I am confident that it is not a product or service I could with any confidence recommend to any of my current client base. My comment was mostly directed at whom I can only assume is an employee, who is obviously talented and hard working. Although I would have asked him to take the NickNacks off the wall cabinet to reduce risk of damage, or getting dirty. Thanks again.

[@bathfitterinlandnw]

@@-carlos-danger1891 I appreciate your opinion. I wouldn't expect you to recommend another company to your client base. That would be silly.

[@-carlos-danger1891]

@@bathfitterinlandnw Why would that be silly? As a custom builder I recommend, and use other vendors regularly to ensure my clients get a product that as close to their vision as I possibly can, while ensuring they will have a result that will last for years to come, adding value to their homes. I just wouldn't use your company.

There is no wet or dry base under the shower pan?

Wow! Looks great and he didn't knock down the nic-nack shelves. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼 Will someone tell me why the hand towel, paper towels, and tissue kept moving by themselves?

[@KaliCapps11]

Hi Shawn. My guess is he had a fan going in the bathroom, outside the shot. But maybe it was a result of how fast he was moving! lol

The bath is haunted

[@Chanmantroop10]

Is it possible to have the tub surround extend onto the ceiling too? I have low ceilings at 7ft in my bathroom and I hate dealing with moisture getting on the ceiling bc of it's low height. Was wondering if it's possible to have the whole shower area enclosed with the acrylic

[@bathfitterinlandnw]

Yes! We also offer ceilings! You can see some of the options here: www.bathfitterspokane.com/shower-ceilings

Not bad. I understand each job is different, but how much did this specific job cost?

[@bathfitterinlandnw]

Hi Nicholas, I'm not even sure what job this was, to be quite honest. It was years ago and I didn't make a note for reference. As you said, every job is different but I can say an average job isn't going to be like $1,000, but it's not going to be $10,000, either. I know that's a huge ballpark but sometimes people don't know at all what the range is. Hopefully, that helps a little.

[@dajur1]

What type of caulk do you use? I tried 2 different types of caulking and flex seal and none of them stuck to my acrylic Bath fitter panels very well.

[@bathfitterinlandnw]

Hi Dan, we use a sealant that we actually produce ourselves. I wish I could be more help in suggesting one you could buy over the counter. If you go to your local Bath Fitter showroom, there's a chance they might be willing to give you a bottle. I know we would if you came into the showroom here in Spokane, WA

[@realwes4776]

He put in a brand new shower base and then put nothing down to protect it. You can see in video all his tools and toolbox directly sitting on the new base. He is also walking on new base with shoes. If I'm paying 8000 dollars, I don't want my brand new shower base filled with scratches from the workman.

Just goes to show how durable acrylic is!

what does this cost because we want it done

[@bathfitterinlandnw]

Every bathroom is different. It's best to get a consultant to come give you an estimate. Price is based on the work that needs to be done and the style choices you make during the consultation. The best thing to do is to go to www.bathfitter.com and it will direct you to your nearest Bath Fitter to get you set up with a consultation.

No way code allows those “push to connect” fittings to be buried like that.

Bathfitter makes it's own sealant. Its 100 percent pure acrylic, non porous surface. Lifetime warranty. Install in 1 day. Y'all need to do your research. Each bath is customized to each customer.

Is this possible in a 2nd floor ?

[@bathfitterinlandnw]

Absolutely!

[@dlee5921]

There not covering nothing that's a complete new installment

[@bathfitterinlandnw]

Hi David! A common misconception about Bath Fitter is that we only go over existing walls or bathtubs/ showers. This is not the case. We can also replace a tub or shower completely, as well as the walls and sub flooring, when necessary.!

[@mattyb5402]

Where is this installer located? How much was this project?

[@bathfitterinlandnw]

This specific installer is in the Spokane, WA area. We have locations across the country, though, and all of our installers are highly trained and skilled at this procedure. If you'd like to find the Bath Fitter nearest you, you can go to www.bathfitter.com and request a free consultation.

@@jasonwakingupdad5569 Every job is unique, honestly. I'd be doing you an injustice by quoting you without having one of our reps come out to take some measurements and go over some options with you.

$4000 gets you a vinyl(plastic) tub and walls held on by industrial adhesive (double sided tape).

[@bathfitterinlandnw]

Hi JeepDan777, Actually, all of our products use acrylic, not plastic or vinyl. It is a non-porous surface that will not mold or mildew and is easy to maintain. Also, the adhesive used to keep the wall in place is something we also manufacture, which means it has a lifetime warranty for as long as you own your home!

[@UNLOCKEDANDOVERCLOCK]

You manufacture double sided tape....or sub it out to 3M?

[@eb2438]

The BATHFITTER company is not honest and fair in its dealings and prefers to have an attorney call the customer rather than work to fix BATHFITTER product and installation quality concerns. Please seek legal representation before you call BATHFITTER to report any concerns you may have related to the BATHFITTER product. Do not assume the BATHFITTER company will honor the lifetime product warranty.

[@bathfitterinlandnw]

Hi E B, I'm sorry you had a bad experience but this channel is one of a locally owned franchise. We're in Spokane Valley, WA. If ours is not the location of where you had your negative interaction (and I'm very confident it is not), I'd really appreciate it if you could remove your comment. I won't delete it. We have nothing to hide and we do back our lifetime warranty. Many people would attest to this fact and you can see that for yourself in our reviews across many platforms online. Again, it's very unfortunate you've had an issue in your dealings. That is not the standard of customer service we are striving for as an organization.
