For background, we had looked at other companies to redo the shower only of my son's townhome. One of the things that we disliked was that these companies had photos of their renovations and products they sell, but none had the actual product. 1-800-Hansons actually had the shower materials to choose from so we could visualize and touch the surface of it. Some people can make decisions off of photos, we cannot as it was too expensive of a decision for us to rely on photos. The rep for Hansons (Mike Kaechele) made it easy for us to make decisions and worked within the budget we had for ourselves when he visited our son's townhome and took measurements. We were pleased with the options Mike gave us. We didn't feel pressured to choose one option over another. One of the things that stood out to us was that Mike gave us a quote and stood by that quote regardless of what was uncovered upon demolition of the shower -- which as anyone who has renovated a home could mean anything! -- so that meant a lot to us as we didn't know what was hidden behind the walls of the shower either. We also enjoyed the fact that Hansons offered a lifetime warranty to return with any issues we might have had (not that we wanted any, of course).
On the day of installation, have to give some amazing props to the contractor (Josh) who was amazingly professional, respectful and courteous. Josh ensured that my son's new carpet was appropriately covered before they brought in or demolished anything. Let me tell you, I was tired after seeing how efficiently and swiftly Josh and his assistant moved! On the first day, the demolition was complete, and they had started the modifications that needed to be done before setting in the new shower. Things that we needed modified were raising the shower head and controls. On the second day, Josh started install of the new shower space. Again, Josh worked efficiently and by day's end, the shower was complete (just had to wait 24 hours for things to dry). We were so excited at the new shower that I totally forgot to take photos of the completed shower (so I will add those later). It was such a transformation. Our son now has double the space he had with the new renovations, and it looks absolutely stunning. Thank you, Hansons but specifically to Mike and that amazing young man, Josh. Josh is top notch, and I would recommend him to anyone (even the neighbors were asking). Again, apologize for not having a photo of the completed project but we were simply relishing in the beauty and transformation of the space.
Edit: Just added a photo of the completed project that Josh completed in a timely and professional manner (don't mind that nasty linoleum because that is going in due time). One additional detail that we specifically needed was a shower door that was extra tall. Again, Hansons came through for us. Cannot stress enough what a difference this update makes. My son's shower space has nearly doubled. Love the floor to ceiling shower walls as well.
