As we age, or when our physical needs change, it’s difficult knowing when and when not to replace appliances and fixtures in our San Diego, CA homes to better accommodate us. Some upgrades are a large investment, so we want to ensure we choose our expenditures wisely. Determining what we want and what we need can be tricky.
One of those decisions comes in the form of walk-in tubs. Walk-in tubs serve a particular purpose and are not meant for everyone. Some homeowners don't need the added features and won't utilize their tubs as intended. However, others will truly appreciate a walk-in tub and use it to their benefit. At Shugarman's Bath, we want to help our customers make this big decision.
Use these helpful tips when considering installing a new walk-in tub to make the best decision for you.
There are incredible benefits to installing a new walk-in tub, from greater safety to relaxation galore. Regardless of your age or health status, anyone can enjoy the rewards of a walk-in tub, but those who require the benefits for their health may find it irresistible.
Let's look at the features you can add to personalize your tub to your wants and needs. Hydrotherapy jet massage has ten water jets that massage and relax the body, while air bubble therapy involves 18 air spa jets that release thousands of tiny bubbles to create a gentle caressing massage.
Color chromotherapy uses colored lights in the water to improve mood and to enhance relaxation. Aromatherapy sachet bags are available to enhance your bathing experience. Plus, ozone therapy and purification aid in healing skin conditions. No matter what features you decide to incorporate in your customization, walk-in tubs will improve your quality of life.
At Shugarman's Bath, we go above and beyond standard installation techniques, giving you detailed and meticulous craftsmanship guaranteed to last. Our 4-step remodeling process addresses everything, giving you maximum value for your investment. Here's how it works:
Instead of covering up problems, like some competitors, our team demos everything in the wet area down to the studs. Then, we address any underlying moisture or plumbing issues, ensuring a solid foundation to rebuild your new bathroom from the ground up.
We don't slap band-aids over moisture and stud damage – we repair it, fixing any plumbing issues we find. Then we get rid of the old mess and solidify the foundation of your new bath or shower space.
Shugarman's family-approved, factory-trained, and certified installers change your p-trap and the shower valve, use a superior waterproof backer board, and they rebuild everything that you don't see, so everything you do see performs exceptionally well for life!
Our "Never Leak" system involves a superior waterproof DensShield backer board, a new high-quality shower pan, installing inside corner strips, and our non-porous BP-Cor2 material.
Our walk-in tubs give you a stress-free and safer hygiene routine – before you know it, your baths will be the best part of your San Diego, CA, day! At Shugarman's Bath, we sell the only UL-approved tub on the market, ensuring tub safety through rigorous electrical and general product safety testing standards that very few walk-in tubs have ever achieved.
Plus, our sizes accommodate most existing tub spaces and make your installation as non-invasive and time-efficient as possible. You can choose from dozens of color choices, wall patterns, and accessory options to design a showcase-quality enclosure you'll love. We also stand behind our workmanship for LIFE, letting you soak and relax more.
