A Two-Day Bath System? We Do It The RIGHT Way Here In Orange County

Not Just A New Tub, You Get
A Brand New Bath SYSTEM


At Shugarman’s Bath, we’re not simply replacing your San Diego, CA or Orange County home’s tub or shower and moving on to the next job. Instead, we’re replacing the entire bath system in two days. That’s right, we’re going down to the studs.

Because here’s the thing – beneath your tub, it’s chaos. At least, that’s what we expect. We expect to find all kinds of issues, such as rotted floorboards, termites, and even mold.

And it wouldn’t be right to simply ignore those issues and install directly on top of the chaos. So, instead, we strip everything down to the very studs – then we build back the RIGHT way.

Believe it or not, this process takes us only one to two days.



Our Strip It, Fix It, Build It Back Method

We don’t cut corners at Shugarman’s Bath, and we would NEVER skip steps. So, Here’s what we mean when we say we “strip, fix, and build back:”

  • Strip It – We’re talking good, old-fashioned demolition. We strip your bath down to the very studs – no stone goes unturned. If there’s an issue, we will find it and fix it fast. And regardless of what we find, you almost certainly won’t pay more than what you’re quoted.
  • Fix It – We fix every single problem – and we don’t simply cover them up, either. We truly fix them, no matter what it takes. If there’s a minor issue, such as rotted floorboards, we’ll fix it. If there’s a mold problem, we’ll make sure it’s taken care of before we move forward.
  • Build It Back – Once your bath area is pristine, we build it back. This includes the installation of your brand-new and beautiful shower or tub.

There’s a 99% chance your quote price will remain the same even when we find issues we weren’t expecting.

Your price only changes if the issues we find are outside our expertise or ability to resolve (i.e., widespread termite infestation). In this case, we may need to bring in outside expertise to ensure your tub or shower area is pristine.


What If You Don’t Do It This Way?

If your bath remodeler doesn’t strip the bath area to the studs, nothing gets fixed. Sure, your tub or shower may look pretty… at first.

But over time, things might begin to break down, and you may experience issues such as:

  • Rotted Studs – If rotted studs exist, your bath won’t last. You may find yourself in a position where you have to replace your tub in under a decade. Since we strip everything down to the studs, we ensure this doesn’t happen to you.
  • Plumbing Issues – Did you know we have a plumbing license? And we use it. We ensure all plumbing components are in good condition and work as they should so that issues are few and far between.

Even more, we guarantee our workmanship for LIFE. So, if we miss something or you experience trouble of any kind that’s related to materials or workmanship, we’ll come back and fix your problem for free.


Our Process Is Faster, Better, And Fairly Priced

But aren’t there other companies that strip the bath to the studs? Sure, but very few specialize in bath areas alone. Instead, they focus on full bathroom remodels.

The issue?

They often charge much more than us, and they take two weeks at best to finish the remodel.

With us, we’re faster. Our quality is better. And we’re fairly priced.

  • We’re Faster – We finish almost every project in under two days. In some cases, it only takes us one day.
  • We’re Better – San Diego, CA Union-Tribune readers voted us the #1, absolute best bath remodeling company in all of San Diego, CA… three years in a row!
  • We’re Fairly Priced – We specialize in tub or shower areas. If you don’t want or need a full bathroom remodel and simply want to upgrade your bath or shower, we can do so in an affordable manner. And if you do want a full bathroom remodel? You can save money by hiring a specialist, rather than a general contractor who will sub out the shower to a specialist.
