Shugarman’s Bath Vs. The Traditional General Contractor In San Diego, CA
If You Want Your Tub Or Shower Installed 2-5x Faster, Choose A Bath Remodeling Specialist
General contractors are great for a variety of projects. Need a home addition? Choose a general contractor. Need to build a backyard deck?
Choose a general contractor.
But when it comes to your tub or shower -- which is the hardest part of your home to get right -- you need a specialist.
At Shugarman’s Bath, we install beautiful, safe, and easily accessible baths and showers for San Diego, CA and Orange County homeowners.
And we do it WITHOUT hassles or delays.
More than that, we use only the best materials. We use full-time, well-trained installers. And finish 99% of our bath and shower remodels in two days or less.
Although we can’t build a new office addition like a traditional general contractor, we are better at tubs and showers.
The Drawback To General Contractors?
The Process Takes MUCH Longer
The general contractor is often not the problem. Most often, highly-rated GCs are reliable and trustworthy.
So, what’s the issue with using them for your tub or shower remodel? Subcontractors.
You see, general contractors may perform some of the work themselves. But for the most part, they hire subcontractors (and not full-time employees) to perform critical tasks, such as demolition, plumbing, carpentry, tile, glass, and more.
This creates multiple concerns, including (but not limited to) inconsistent quality of work, cost overruns, and setbacks that make your project take much longer.
Two Days Vs. Time-Consuming Delays
The traditional general contractor is entirely at the mercy of the subcontractor’s punctuality.
Since the subcontractor has a half dozen (or more) other jobs, there’s no telling if (or when) they’ll show up. And in most cases, there are multiple subcontractors – all with their own schedules and timelines.
So, even if they work efficiently, delays occur.
As a result, your project could take anywhere from a week to more than a month.
But there’s GOOD NEWS.
At Shugarman’s Bath, we reliably install your bath or shower much faster. For 80% of remodels, it takes us two days or less. More complex jobs may take three or four days, but it’s rare for a project to take longer than that.
How is that, you ask? Well, we’re not reliant upon subcontractor. In fact, we don’t use them at all to install your bath or shower.
More than that, our installation system is better. We don’t use tile and grout like most traditional general contractors. Instead, we use a high-quality BP-Cor2 material that’s easy and fast to install. And since the material comes waterproofed already, we don’t have to spend any time “waterproofing” your bathtub.
As a result, we’re faster… MUCH faster.
A LIFETIME Warranty vs. The Limited Manufacturer Warranty
Now, let’s talk about your bath remodeling warranty.
Most general contractors don’t offer much in the way of a “warranty.” And we get it -- when you’re reliant upon subcontractors to perform much of the work, it’s hard to offer a guarantee. After all, the bath and shower are the hardest areas of your home to get right.
But at Shugarman’s Bath, we specialize in baths and showeres and don’t rely upon subcontractors. And we offer a LIFETIME warranty that protects your bath from material or labor issues for the entire time you own and live in your home. It doesn’t get any better than that!
General Contractor’s Are Great For Many Home Remodeling
Projects… Just Not Your Tub Or Shower Remodel
As mentioned, general contractors are great at coordinating larger home remodeling projects.
From building backyard decks to adding a sunroom, you could hire a general contractor for the majority of projects. They’re more affordable than a design-build firm, and they take the hassle out of coordinating each step of your home construction journey.
The only exception? Your tub or shower remodel. It’s too important and too difficult to get right, so you need a specialist.
