Professional Tub/Shower Replacement

For many, the bathtub symbolizes a tranquil mini-retreat, offering solace from the pressures of a hectic day. However, there are occasions when this sanctuary is compromised. A dropped shampoo bottle may cause cracks near the drain, or over time, the tub may develop weak spots and extensive cracking. In such cases, opting to replace the bathtub is often more cost-effective than attempting repairs. Moreover, if you’re considering adding a bathtub to your bathroom, it’s advisable to seek the assistance of a professional plumber for installation.

With a legacy dating back to 1981, Aspen Plumbing Services has been aiding individuals in the Jackson area with the repair and installation of bathroom fixtures. Over the years, we’ve earned a reputation as a reliable and knowledgeable plumbing company. With considerable expertise in bathtub installation and other bathroom remodeling endeavors, we encourage you to reach out to us. With our assistance, there’s no reason why every day can’t feel like a spa day.

Tips From The Bathroom Plumbing Experts

When it comes to showers and tubs, our team of highly skilled and trained plumbing experts have years of experience and can provide you with all of the information that you need regarding your bathtubs, showers, etc. Below you will find helpful information, but feel free to call our team any time with any questions or concerns that you may have!

Bathtub Replacement

People invest significant time in their bathrooms, with a considerable portion dedicated to the shower or tub. However, as lifestyles evolve, existing bathroom configurations may no longer meet our requirements. Here are the common reasons why individuals in Albion or Jackson turn to us for bathtub replacement or installation:

  • Outdated Aesthetics: Trends change, and what was once fashionable may now appear outdated. If your current tub is an eyesore, replacing it becomes a viable option. Reach out to us at (517) 750-9913 for a complimentary quote and recommendations on tub brands that align with your preferences and budget.
  • Adaptation Needs: Life changes, such as reduced mobility or the addition of children to the household, may necessitate bathroom modifications. Our plumbers can assist you in selecting a new tub that addresses your specific requirements, including options with low sides, seats, or grab bars.
  • Extensive Repairs: Assess the condition of your current tub. Is it marred by chips and cracks? If so, replacing it is likely the best course of action. While temporary fixes exist, they often offer only short-term solutions. In many instances, the cumulative cost of frequent repairs outweighs the expense of installing a new tub.
  • Enhanced Comfort: For some homeowners, a bathtub is more of a luxury than a necessity, and some homes may lack one altogether. Installing a new tub not only enhances property value but also promotes relaxation and well-being.

Professional Tub/Shower Replacement

Installing or replacing a tub is a significant project that typically requires the expertise of a licensed plumber. Often, tub installation is part of a larger bathroom remodel, where coordination among various contractors, including plumbers and electricians, is essential for a smooth process.

We’ve received calls from customers who attempted DIY bathtub installation, following guides or online tutorials, only to encounter issues such as leaks, drainage problems, or unstable tubs. Ultimately, they end up seeking professional help and paying more to rectify the problems.

Attempting a DIY tub installation in Jackson may seem like a money-saving option, but the potential risks to your home and bathroom far outweigh any potential savings. Instead, entrust the task to the professional plumbing contractors at Aspen Plumbing.

Home Maintenance Plans To Keep Your Plumbing Equipment Running Strong

Frequently Asked Questions

While chemical drain cleaners are acceptable in certain situations, we discourage using them frequently or as a first solution. These chemicals are extremely toxic and can eat away at pipes if overused. Ask us about safer alternatives to deter and clear clogs.
Our plumbers have access to tools and materials that can clear up any clog without damaging your pipes. And, if your home has recurring clogs, only a real Jackson plumber can get rid of them for good!

A lot of plumbing problems are easy to spot, but leaks have a tendency to go unnoticed. This is because they often start small and can go unnoticed for months or years. They can also hide under floors, above ceilings, and behind walls, making them more challenging to find. Here are a few signs you may have a leak:

  • Rapidly climbing water bills
  • Your water meter ticks even when you aren’t using water
  • A musty smell or signs of mold become visible
  • Discoloration and dampness occurs near tubs and toilets

If you see any of these signs, don’t panic. Call Aspen Plumbing at (517) 750-9913 and schedule an appointment instead!

If your shower pressure is low when other fixtures are running, you may have an insufficient plumbing system. If the problem persists when only the shower is running, there may be a leaking pipe somewhere.
 

There are a number of simple ways to downsize your water bill. These include:

  • Taking shorter showers
  • Turning off the faucet while brushing your teeth
  • Only running the washing machine or dryer when you have a full load
  • Installing low-flow showerheads and toilets
  • Adding a brick to your toilet tank to reduce the amount of water used per flush

If you try all these things and your water bill keeps climbing, you may have a leak in your home. Call (517) 750-9913, so one of our plumbers can investigate.

The average water heater in Jackson lasts between 8 and 12 years. Note that this applies to gas water heaters; electric ones can last a little longer. However, the signs that a new water heater is needed don’t relate to fuel source. These include:

  • Dark or rusty water
  • No hot water
  • Flooding and dampness around your water heater

In the Jackson area, it’s not uncommon for temperatures to dip below 32°F. When that happens, pipes can freeze and burst. Fixing frozen pipes is one of the most expensive plumbing repairs you can have. Fortunately, there are steps homeowners can take to prevent this catastrophe. These include:

  • Opening doors and cabinets on cold days
  • Insulating pipes inside and outside your home
  • Keeping a faucet dripping
  • Quickly patching any cracks
  • Never set your thermostat lower than 55°F
