Re-Bath

Re-bath salesman named Jerad from the Denver office looked at the bathroom yesterday. I had to excuse myself for a few minutes and when I came back, they were both standing up and my wife told me to get him out of our house. It seems that he made a pass at my wife while I was in the next room.

Most of you people have no common sense. Do you really think that any company would be cheaper than if you just do it yourself? Stop wasting salesman's time! If you can do it yourself, "have a guy," or like the cheap ** from Home Depot--then do it! If you think that you can do tub, walls, plumbing, accessories, fixtures for less than $5,000 then you are an **. Also, ceramic tile and bath fitter products are two different things. Like comparing apples with apples. Get your ** uncle, your brother-in-law, or your handyman neighbor to do the job. Then, when they ** it up and you have no warranties, cry somewhere else.

Companies are out to make a profit. It cost them money to send a salesman out to your house for a second time because you ** didn't do your research, so they pass the savings unto you to sign and make a profit. Bath Fitters is not out to give product away, so quit your whining if they ask you for your business. Use the Internet, do your price research and then call for the appointment. If you have no money and have a bad credit, do everyone a favor and leave them alone. Grow up. Go get your plastic and fiberglass tub off the shelf at Home Depot, go get your ceramic tile, go get your ** handyman to do your bathroom and when he is done, maybe he can throw in some new windows too. Then, call a professional company when you are ready to replace the ** work that was done.

They treat the franchisee very poorly. Everything that goes wrong is your fault, not theirs. The bathtub liners will fill up with water in a couple of years. Think about it, a cup placed in another cup and even the smallest amount of water will make it into a water bed. We just gave up--between the customer and Re-Bath, we could never get any sleep.

On Friday, July 1st, 2011, we decided to go with Re-Bath instead of Bath Fitter (we did get an estimate from them, also). We expressed to your salesman (Dean **) the importance of wanting a larger tub than we already had. He had to go back and forth with us several times on the phone, taking measurements, until he investigated and stated he could get the size tub we wanted. The agreed upon tub size was exterior 30 wide tub with INTERIOR measurements of 24 wide, 59/60 long and 14 deep.

Monday, August 22nd, was install day. The installer (Dave) was not very competent. He had turned off the water main, then removed the faucet handles. When he went to turn the water main back on, he had left the spigot open, so water was pouring into my open floorboards/joists. He asked for towels, I gave him older ones. they weren't enough, and he asked for more, so I gave him nicer towels. They were filthy when he gave them back to me.

I went outside to look at the new tub in my driveway. It looked oddly narrow. So I measured just the interior. The width was only 22, so I called the salesman. He looked into it and called me back, stating that the size tub I wanted/ordered/he agreed to, did not even exist. Evidently, Josh at the office was looking up the wrong type of tub, so that size exists, but not for the type of system we were having installed. I was aghast! What was I going to do? I had a huge hole in my wall/floor, and my old cast iron tub had been jack-hammered into pieces? And the agreed upon size tub I wanted didn't exist, because of a mistake on Re-bath's part?

Someone, somewhere in Re-bath had to have known that the incorrect size tub was being sent to my house. I allowed the installer to put in the 22 tub, with the condition that, I would not get a chance to take a bath until the weekend, and I would let Re-Bath know, then if I was satisfied with the smaller tub (Also, Dave tried putting in the new tub with the nails still in the studs! He left broken glass in a bag in the hall and when my dad walked by, he cut his shin on it). He also left the bathroom and toilet filthy with the grime from the drain, and the jack hammering knocked tiles loose in the adjacent bathroom, which Dave agreed to grout.

The weekend came, and trying to take a bath was quite a joke! The width was a little tight, but even worse, the water barely covered me! I measured the depth, and it was only 12! It was supposed to be 14. I was furious! Also, when we take showers, the bottom creaks/groans/moans so loudly, it can be heard in the next room, over the noise of a box fan, and an air purifier!

I called the salesman to let him know of the additional mistake (12 instead of 14 depth), and the unbearable noises the tub makes when showering. He gave me the number to the local franchise owner, Jim. I called Jim. He could not have cared less about any of my dissatisfaction. His rebuttal is that, I authorized them to put in that tub. No I did not! I authorized a 22x59x14 (since there is no 24x59x14), to be installed, and that is not what is in my bathroom. He had never received complaints about the noise. it is not possible, because it is sitting flat on the floorboards. I am no rocket scientist, but the exterior is 15 and the interior is only 12. My math says there is a 3 gap between the tub bottom and the floorboards!

He was adamant that he was not going to come out, and do anything, certainly not anything for free. I asked if he would then rebate some of the money I had already paid, and his answer was no. He offered no concessions whatsoever to try to appease this unhappy customer. I wish I had paid by credit card so I could have contested the charge!

The only saving grace is Dean, the salesman. He was not above being bothered to come out, and see about the creaking/groaning. He agreed to try to be a go-between for us and Jim. It has still been a process of waiting weeks, and not hearing anything. We initiated a call to Dean, and he replies, "you mean no one has called you yet?" Our answer, no! Currently, they are looking into what they could apply/spray under the tub to help with the noise. Now that they are investigating, apparently the noise issue is more common than they thought. To this day, we still don't know what is going on concerning products to help insulate under the tub. Also, caulking is already pulling away from the back wall (after only 2 months), to which it took 2 weeks to hear back from the repairman.

I believe that I have been reasonable, and more than patient. If this issue does not get resolved to my satisfaction, I will have to take measures. I have contacted the Better Business Bureau, Angie's List, Ohio Consumer Affairs, Ohio Attorney General, my uncle (who is a prominent lawyer in the region), and my friend (who directs the news at the local Fox TV station). I have also posted on Facebook about the lousy service and product. A response would be greatly appreciated.

I assume your company normally doesn't just install "whatever size tub they feel like" into homes. I would like to hear from you no later than December 15th, 2011. The outcome I am expecting is either : 1)for you to replace the tub with a deeper tub and do something about the irritatingly loud noise it makes (assuming the new tub may creak, also), or 2)a partial refund (the cost of the tub itself), and you do something about the irritatingly loud noise it makes.

In the winter of 2007, my husband and I went to a local home fair where we visited a booth for Re-Bath, and they sold us their products and services. We had them come to our home in March of 2008 to give an estimate for the complete remodel of our shower/bath enclosure. They quoted us $5,700 dollars and we would need to put down a deposit to order up our fixtures and materials. We gave them a check for $490.

He left and contacted us, stating that he needed to come and get an extra $200 dollars for a down of 10%. We foolishly gave him cash! Though we did tell him that we didn't feel comfortable giving him cash, he made a photocopy of it and signed it. He stated that a few weeks will go by before the office will call to set up an "install appointment". That call never came!

A few weeks went by and we started to worry, so we called, and called, and called. We sent off letters; we filed a report with the BBB. Nothing has happened in 3 years. I sent off a letter to their corporate office in August 2011, and they ignored it. This company is the worst company we have ever dealt with!

We had Re-Bath remodel our bathroom last year, and we applied for a loan half of the total amount of the job; it was $2300. Re-Bath had EnerBank give us a loan for $2300 with zero percent interest. So, we did go with the remodeling. At the start of the loan, we got a payment book with the dates and the amount to pay dated September 2011. The loan was done in September 2010, and we didn't get anything from them until December 2010.

I made the first payment of $500 on December 12, 2010, check number **. The next payment was January 7, 2011 for $300, check number **. Then the next payment was February 4, 2011 for $500, the check number **. Then on February 21, 2011 we made a payment for $500, check number **, and the last payment was on March 8th, 2011 for $500, check number **. If all payments will be added up, the total would be $2300. Mind you, during the time that we were making these payments, we received no email or snail mail from EnerBank. So, we figured since I can see it online and it shows that it's paid off, maybe it's already done. Today, September 12, 2011, we got a letter from them stating that we owe them the account balance of $243.60. They want us to pay a monthly amount of $67.74. They said that the due date will be on July 7, 2014.

This is just crazy. Here's the letter that they sent us, "Our records indicate that you entered into a Same AS Cash loan agreement on September 7, 2010. After reviewing our records, it appears that we have not received the full principal balance on or before the same as cash due date of September 7, 2011. As stated in your note and disclosure, your loan is now a fixed rate installment loan that requires a minimum payment that is due every month as stated above. If you have any questions, please call our customer service department at 1-888-390-1220."

During installation, the wrong hardware was installed. We had asked and paid for controlling the temperature of water but did not receive any. We had to call and get it ordered, which took some time to do. When the new hardware was brought out, there was not a new overflow valve installed. We asked for a new one and they said that they would order it. But a couple of weeks later, they called to say that they did not install the overflow valves. Why would someone pay over $3,000 to put a rubber stopper in the tub while taking a bath?

This contract was signed on 26 Mar 11 and the new control was installed on 19 May 11. The installer didn't bring the overflow valve. The installer stated that he would have the office order one, but we never heard from them. We called and were told that it was on order with the new temperature control valve. When they notified me that the new temperature valve was in, I asked about the overflow. They said that it was all there--valve and temperature control.

When the installer got here, he did not have the overflow valve. I called the office again and they said that they would get back to me. Finally, they contacted me about a month ago stating that they did not install overflow valves. So, why would anyone pay that kind of money and still have to use a rubber stopper to take a bath? Also, when we talked to the sales rep, we were told that the old rotten wood would be replaced. On the first day of the installation, after the installer left, all of the rotten wood was still there. All he did was put the liner over the rotten wood. He said that he needed that to make a clean corner, with the liner.

I am so confused. My husband heard about this company on KTRH radio talk and there was a lot of bragging. Maybe they do good work, and are very thorough, but not in my case. My husband has to work hard and we had to save to get this done. Your help in this is greatly appreciated. My overall experience is half star. It is already September, and it still can't be fixed.

My disabled older brother just had his hip replaced, and I wanted to get his back stall shower redone, so he could use it. He saw Re-Bath on TV. The sales rep Lori ** came out and put him through the wringer for 3-1/2 hours, while he was exhausted and in pain. She kept stalling him about prices, and instead of the "Re-Bath Liner" thing, she insisted the entire bathroom be torn out and remodeled.

It's a 6x7ft bathroom with a tiny 30x30 stall shower, and her "estimate" came to $14,640! My brother was intimidated, and she was very pushy, so he gave her a $1000 deposit. He called me the next day and said he was so high on his pain meds that he hardly remembers anything! He asked me to cancel the contract! He's on Social Security, and his wife hardly makes anything! I read over her estimate, which doesn't detail anything for such a huge price for a tiny 6x7ft bathroom! That price doesn't even include painting the walls or tiling the floor! I'm appalled how this sales rep can sleep at night!

I wanted to take the time to thank the Re-Bath people, especially the owner Phil and his office staff Roz (who is an interpreter for the boss and easy to get along with)! Ray, the installer, came to the house to begin working on our bathroom, everything was going along just fine until he tried to put the liner into our tub. What were the odds the we would have the one that would not fit or is out of stock? So I was faced with a dilemma. A two week wait for a replacement began to smell pretty bad! Since this is the only bathroom that we have.

The other option, I wasn't even sure of. However, as everything worked out, the owner came to our rescue. He removed the existing bathtub and installed a new replacement bathtub from Re-Bath so the work could continue! Throughout the day, Ray, the main worker, worked twice as hard while Jim, the plumber, took care of all aspects of plumbing. Ray diligently worked and was very friendly to communicate with. The following day, the owner came to my door step, he wanted to make sure how the completed job turned out. I have to mention that they are extraordinary well rounded individuals, they know their work! If anybody was ever to ask me if I would I endorse them, the answer would be yes, I will definitely endorse them. As it's extremely hard today to find true workers versus workers. Anybody having a business before would definitely know what I mean. Re-Bath gets an A for the excellent work. So please continue on with the same philosophy. As I tell many people all over the world, united we stand divided we fall. This holds true to a very small company and a very large company.

In December we had a bath unit removed and a new shower unit installed. Apart from the plumbing, the work was carried out entirely by a single installer. He worked tirelessly without a break and we feel the standard of his work should receive the recognition he deserves.

We have no hesitation in recommending Re-Bath to carry out work of a similar nature. We would be grateful if you would pass on our feelings and hope the installer continues to progress in his career.

Rachael, on behalf of the Re-Bath corporate office

The salesman left our home just a couple of hours ago and I was looking online about Re-Bath. I saw this response to a problem they had in Sugarland, which is close to us. Someone from their home office in Tempe, AZ said to their customer with the problem: "To state that we have "not been trained to use a tape measure or a saw correctly" is offensive and untrue. We only employ master carpenters". I would expect plumbers, not carpenters to do this type of work. No wonder the customer had problems. I thank these people for sharing their story and will look for someone else to do my bathroom. It almost cost me $9000.00, which I thought was a little high.

This is a written response to the complaint posted for Re-Bath from Sugarland, TX. We have documentation on this issue. What actually happened on 1/18/10, our consultant Jason went out to visit the Verdones for a sales call. He did not sell the job because they were uncomfortable buying anything on the first day. A few weeks later, the Verdones called Jason back to say they were ready to move forward. They set up a follow up sales call on 2/1/10. Jason went back out to the home. It was at this time that Jason explained to them that our normal installation process takes 1-2 days. He never told them that their installation would only take 1 day. He said that it is possible for some of our jobs to take 1 day. But it was up to the installation team to decide which jobs were possible to do in 1 day and which jobs would take longer than that.

The week of 3/1/10, we called the Verdones to schedule their installation. It was at this time, over the phone, that we told them the installation would definitely take 2 days. We apologized for any inconvenience. But we gave them the option of either coming out on a Saturday or putting a lockbox on their home so they would not have to miss any work. They declined both and set up their installation for Thursday and Friday, 3/11 and 3/12. Then, they called the salesman, Jason, to see if there was anything he could do to push to make their job "one of the 1 day jobs" because they had to work. This clearly indicates that they were perfectly aware that this job would take more than 1 day. We were fine with working around their schedule, but they declined.

Peter arrived at their home on 3/11 and worked his normal 8 hour day. On Friday, he arrived on time again. But during the course of the installation, he ran into a few challenges, which can sometimes happen on large jobs. As the afternoon was getting longer, he asked the Verdones if they preferred him to work late to finish the job, or come back on Saturday morning to finish. They chose to keep him there on Friday night working until the job was finished. He did stay until 11 pm to finish, but that was at their own request. He was willing to come back the next morning. After the installation, the Verdones signed the Customer Approval sheet and did not list any complaints in the section titled "Comments" on the Approval sheet. They paid the balance in full, and that was that.

Three weeks later, Ms. Verdone called the office irate saying that her bathtub was too small. She stated that we sold her a larger bathtub. But it clearly states directly on the contract Standard size bathtub. Standard is 60x30, and that is what we installed. However, because Ms. Verdone was completely irate, we chose to compromise with her. We agreed that ReBath would take out the 60x30 bathtub that was on the contract, and replace it with a 60x32 bathtub - but the Verdones would be responsible for paying the cost of the new bathtub, $200. We agreed that we would not charge them for the labor, just the new bathtub, simply to make them happy. We ordered the new bathtub, and waited for it to arrive. When it arrived at our warehouse, we called the Verdones to set up a new installation. They stated that they are both teachers, so if we could set up a time in the summer after their school year ended, then they would not have to take any time off of work.

On 5/6, we sent two installers to their home to install the new bathtub. In the process of removing the walls, one wall was damaged. We explained the situation to the Verdones and gave them two choices: 1. we put the damaged wall up and simply cover the non-straight cut line with a piece of trim, or we 2. reorder a new wall, but that would mean the Verdones would again have to wait. They chose to put up the trim. We installed the new bathtub, put up the walls, and put up the trim. Then, they decided that they did not like the trim, and they decided to have us order a new wall. So, we left them with a working bathroom. We did not collect the $200 and we reordered another wall. When the wall arrived, we called them once more to schedule the final installation.

We arrived at the home on 6/18, put up the new wall, and finished. When we tried to collect the $200 that the Verdones agreed to pay us for installing a larger bathtub, they became irate once again. They called the office and we agreed to waive the $200 charge, once again - to make them happy. They were completely satisfied and seemed very happy that they did not have to pay the $200 fee that they agreed to. We never heard from them again. We went out of our way to make the Verdones happy. Every time we offered to come out on a Saturday to do the work, since they teach during the week, they refused. When they called with a complaint, we did everything in our power to make them happy. Mistakes happen, and we admit that our installer had some trouble with one of the walls when he was replacing the bathtub for them. However, we fixed everything that she was upset about, and even gave her a larger bathtub than the one on the original contract, for free. I honestly do not know what more we could have done to make them happy. I have attached all supporting documents.

Please note that every time we performed an installation, they signed the Customer Approval sheet with no comments or complaints. We pride ourselves on excellent work. And any time a customer is upset, we try to resolve the dispute any way we can. To state that we have "not been trained to use a tape measure or see correctly" is offensive and untrue. We only employ master carpenters - and we think that it shows great dedication to stay at a client's home until 11 pm to finish a job on a Friday night. Most clients would appreciate that kind of hard work, but it seems that the Verdones did not see it that way.

I had a ReBath system installed a few years ago. Some time went by when I noticed I had a stain (I've come to the conclusion that it's a hard water stain. No one was ever sent to look at it) at the bottom of my tub which has the non-skid treatment. (The installer has since retired.) I have called and sent emails to ReBath. Most time my calls were not returned. I tried the cleaners on the list. I tried the Palmolive. Long story short, they told me the product warranty did not apply to stains. However, if you notice the online ads say that their system is stain resist. I would like to have my liner replaced without the non-skid. The rest of it is okay.

We signed a contract on June 22, 2010. We were told it would take 2 days 3 at the most. Today is Sept. 4, 2010 and it still is not working. Someone was to come up today to fix it and they were not only a no-show, they didn't even bother to phone and cancel or reschedule. I get the run around every time I phone them. No one returns my calls to set an appointment or cancel.

The shower leaks, the shower door does not close properly. One of the tiles has no grout on it. It's going on three months and we still cannot use the shower.

Rebath of Central Florida, owned by Richard **, was sold to another individual in an asset sale only. Richard **, franchise owner of Rebath of Central Florida, walked away from paying his companies' debts after the sale.Thousands of dollars in materials purchased and supplied to customers' homes was never paid for. Richard ** owns another Rebath Franchise in Long Island, New York. People should be made aware that he may not pay for materials in New York and customers could have liens placed on their homes by suppliers and workers. Rebath of Central Florida stiffed one of his former employees with default judgement in the amount of $18,500.00 plus court costs and attorney fees.

Again you can see it all over the internet. This guy Richard ** still qualifies Rebath of Mid Florida with his Master Plumbing license and the person harmed by the debt is seeking the State of Florida to revoke Richard ** Master Plumbing License in the State of Florida. Rebath Corporate knows of this debt problem and states, "It's not our problem."

Yet Richard ** is a Rebath Franchise Holder still in Long Island New York. Richard ** should be made to pay off this debt or have his New York franchise taken away. What kind of Franchise owners are you allowing, Dave Sanders? Force Richard ** to pay the debt.

I am sorry I did not find this site before. Reading the reviews of other Re-bath's customers, I can relate to them. They have a horrible service. I tried to order a bath. The lady in Puerto Rico didn't know how to use the VISA, so she charged many times and I had to go to the bank to solve the problem. She put a lot of pressure and was very rude and pushy because even though she didn't make the charge to my credit card because she did not know how to use it, she was blaming me for the whole situation. I solved the problem with the bank but I lost trust on them because she said she ordered the bath tub as a special favor. Come on, this is business; I know she doesn't do favors.

My bank account was frozen for several days because she messed up and that was the first experience. Then she kept calling me and demanding a deposit with a check. I did not trust them already. She kept calling me and threatens. They have a contract that allows them to keep the deposit after three days of the order. They never cashed the deposit because they did not know how to use the card.

After these people in Puerto Rico threatened me to take me to court so they can have the deposit, I don't feel like doing business with pushy people that don't know how to handle a bank account and at the top of everything are threatening to take me to court. This Re-bath thing is a nightmare. They just care about selling and having your money. At least in Puerto Rico, they have the worst customer service ever and the people who handle this company are very rude with no knowledge about business and about customer service. If you want to give your money away and have a nightmare, call Re-Bath, Puerto Rico.

I visited a Re-Bath in Baton Rouge and scheduled an appointment. My problem is that the rep said following the estimate, we will be offered a discount. But if we declined at the time, the discount would walk out the door with the rep. We don't want to waste a one-time opportunity. But we do not like that "gun to the head" without any idea of the cost of a walk in tub with installation and/or a shower replacing a tub. We just choose not to do anything at this time. If this is how they want to do business, I'd suggest to anyone the following: Get other estimates first. Then, schedule Re-Bath as the last estimate you get. This way, you know if the deal they are offering you is worth taking.

I'm sorry but I don't know what they would be charging for a walk in tub or shower installation. But I personally hate companies that do business this way. It leads me to believe that they are not the best game in town (value/price/quality). And that is why they threaten to take away the discount if they can't strong arm you into making a decision on the spot. Honestly, we shopped around with other contractors and we are glad we did. The Re-Bath discount was as fake as their sales tricks. It would have cost twice what we finally paid.

We had to replace our bathtub in the master bath when it cracked and leaked water into the master bedroom. We talked to the Rebath sales person. It was a hard sale as he threatened to withhold the 10% cash discount if we didn't sign a contract immediately. My husband and I sent him away without a contract but not before we copied all the notes he had taken during the sales process. He called back and offered the 10% discount whenever we were ready to sign. He sold it as a one day installation as a team would come to do the work.

When the material was ready for install, one person arrived with instructions that it was a two day job. Not only was it a two day job but he stayed until 11 pm on a Friday to complete the installation. The window frame was curved on both vertical sides. The latex caulking used around the tub and wall pieces was unpaintable and all over the paint. The Tub was significantly smaller than the size indicated by the sales person. Jason came out to the house to look at the problems. He agreed that everything needed to be fixed. However, they had to order more parts. We are teachers and taking days off to monitor the work was a big problem. Jason said no problem it will only be a one day fix.

The crew came out to fix the issues only to create new issues. It seems that they have not been trained to use a tape measure or a saw correctly. It looked like they had tried to patch up the wall to look good--but failed!

We called Jason again. Again they had to order parts. Jason actually came to install on the last try. Most of the problems are patched--not fixed to professional standards. I have several places where I had to seal myself. It still does not look professionally installed. My recommendation to everyone I meet is not to use Rebath for several reasons: 1. They lied about the one day job twice; 2. They don't call when they say they will; 3. Their work is shoddy and unprofessional; 4. It took 5 days to complete the 1 day job that was promised; At the end of the day, this is just a crap job, we could have done a better job on the details!

In July of 2007 I contracted ReBath to do my main floor bath. The cost was $4,800.00. ReBath ordered the materials and installed the tub cover, walls, grab bar, soap etc. holder and a shower bowed rod, plus the faucet and new drains. The first issue was the installer failed to adequately caulk around the tub walls and the water was leaking down into the basement. The company returned caulked as needed. The next issue became the shower rod continually fell off so again they were contacted and a service person drilled the wall reinstalled the rod with anchors. That didn't last for two weeks and I repaired it my self after fixing the drilled hole. The second issue was the liner released from the tub and water was getting between the two. The service man again came out and reglued the tubs through the drain. The next issue was his repair created a drain leak into the basement so the company again was contacted and a service man attempted to repair the drain and left. The drain was fine for a month or so then started leaking again.

I contacted Rebath about having the drain re-repaired on the Friday before a Monday holiday. The said they will call me on Tuesday after the holiday however, it was almost four weeks to the day when they called. The company wanted to send a service man to fix the leak and inquired if we had a basement for access. We agreed that he could return the same afternoon and repair the leak. Three min. after we spoke I again was contacted by the service people and told I would have a $69.95 service charge for the repair. I told them that it was still leaking after the last two fixes and they said that they only warranty for one year. I canceled the service trip. My issue is why the job in its entirety was not completed correctly during the installation and why because they can't get it right should I pay for another botched repair when it is their place to provide a quality service and product.

The Ronkonkomo Rebath was a horror to deal with once they had my down payment. They had poor customer service on the phone and behaved as if they were the ones doing me a favor and I could go no where else. The actual product is sub par and they weren't able to install it in one day like they said. All they were doing was fitting one tub over the other. I will certainly not go back to them again.

We would like to request that the posting done on 6-7-10 with the name Mike of Port Arthur, MO be removed. First of all, there is no city or town by the name of Port Arthur in Missouri. There is a Port Arthur in TX and one in WI. Which Re-Bath did this customer deal with? Besides that, the post has no specific complaint to address. I have read through ConsumerAffairs.com terms of use and my understanding is it is for consumers to have a place to post complaints if their concerns are not being addressed by a company. Thank you.

These wonder products never measure up to their promise. They have been around for the past thirty years and their number of outlets is around 200 across the nation which is comprised mostly one man shops. Just look at the numbers, we have about forty million baths in the USA and if a bath required replacement after twenty years than two million baths would be replaced each year. My point is if it was a wonder product than we should exspect a radicial shift in consumer perference but that isn't true. They do on a good year maybe forty thousand or 0.05 percent. The product never made it to main stream. Why? It is just a plastic covering that looks cheap.

My advise is expect the cost of a conventional bath room remodel to cost the same as a "Re Bath" and using time tested products will add value to your home not take away from it like a Re Bath. Use real products for your remodel and stop wanting for a magic pill. I promise you that you will not regret it.

I sent a complaint in May 4. I am glad to announce that Re-Bath is addressing the pooling water problem. They will be riping the walls out and re-leveling the tub. This is suppose to take care of the problem of the pooling water on the ledge of the tub.

They call themselves Re-Bath because they have to re-do their own work. I never questioned their integrity until the salesman misled me 3 times. I have a huge amount of money in my re-modeled bathroom only to have a tub that is not level. The installer replaced a piece of board under the tub then failed to bring it to my attention that the floor was not level. I had a carpenter on stand by who could have resolved the situation. But because the electrician took 3 hours to do his job, the installer was running behind so he installed the tub anyway. In a hurry, he miss-cut the final panel and had to come two weeks later.

Water now pools in a corner and half way down the backside ledge of the wall and tub. The installer now tells me I need to be a better housekeeper and keep the water wiped off. Give me a break! Water pooling will lead to molding. The project coordinator tells me that they will do whatever it takes to make it right, even if they have to replace the wall panels to get under the tub to shim it. However, the salesman refuses to acknowledge that this is a problem.

Life-time warranty? Wow, the first 30 days are not going well. I paid in full before the product was installed. My bad and stupidity. I wish I would have done more research. I would never recommend Re-Bath and I am embarrassed to tell my friends.

They did not finish the job before they left and when I called to let them know, Gary, who said he was the owner was very short and rude. Asking me, "wasn't 99% of the job done. " And I replied that, "I did not give you 99% of the balance. I gave you 100%." Anyway, he was rude and they scuffed my ceiling and Curtis tried to say that it was there already. Their customer service was terrible.

Re-Bath negative experience alert! Bait and switch tactics are practiced by this company. Re-Bath is partnered with Home Depot. I met with credentialed company rep, Barbara, on Friday, April 2, 2010. The rep was fine and the presentation was professional. The rep ran numbers, measured our bathroom, took numerous photographs and seemed competent at her job.

We only wanted tiles in the shower removed and a shower wall liner installed. The rep informed us that their liner package only came with a new shower set-up which included a shower spout, head and single control water valve (which we did not need). She said the workers would have to rip out the tiles, and install "green board" and then the shower liner. The final price agreed on was $3,997.00 with a deposit of $1,332.00 given via credit card. All work was to be completed in one day and the approximate work date was three weeks later; a specific work date to be given in the coming week.

Six days later, the rep calls to inform us that the plumber Re-Bath contracts with told her that after going over her paperwork, measurements and photos of the bath/shower in our home the job is a bigger one and Re-Bath would need to rip out our existing tub and re-route the plumbing (there is nothing wrong with our plumbing or our current tub).

Instead of the agreed upon price of $3,997.00, we were told the cost would be "substantially" more. We declined, the rep said okay and she would cancel our contract. We asked for and were given assurances that our credit card would not be charged the deposit amount or any other amount. The rep said no charges would be made and the contract would be canceled. This is bait and switch--and this is unacceptable.

I waited almost eight weeks to get my bathroom fixed and the repair man came late and told me that he had to stop at Home Depot and pick up the stuff he needed. Was it a special order, I asked? Nope. It was the cheapest thing that Home Depot had on it's shelf. What a rip off? When I called the manager, said it was "high quality". Not so, I went down to Home Depot and saw it myself.

I called Rebath and spoke with a man about my bathtub liner and it has a crack in it. I bought it with a lifetime warranty. The man asked me for a copy of my invoice which I have and a copy of my warranty. I have the canceled check and the invoice, but I never got the warranty I told him. He said that it was not his company that sold me the bathtub and that the Rebath company I dealt with was was out of business. I called the main office, but I got the runaround there too. These lifetime warranty are trash. No one will stand behind them. $2800, the amount that I paid for the bathtub liner and shower walls.

I entered into an agreement with Re-Bath of NW GA. to remodel the master bath in my home on July 13th 2009. Because this is the only bathroom in the house and my husband and I have 2 kids, it took some time to come up with a start date. I was told the job would only take a day so whatever day I choose, we would not be without a bathroom, but for only that day!

After numerous calls to Donna at the Rome office, we can up with a date, September 7th. It was Memorial Day and school was out. Myself and my husband were off from work, perfect day to do this job. On Friday, before he was about to start, I called Donna just to make sure we were still on and to remind her of Monday being a holiday. She called "her guy" just to verify he was still on for Monday and she shortly called me back to say he would be at my house Monday morning at 8:00 am to start the job.

After us spending all weekend cleaning out and getting ready for him on Monday, he never showed! Around lunch time, Donna actually called to see if he had started the job. I told her, he had not showed up! She didn't know where "her guy" was. He wasn't answering her phone calls. I told Donna then that if this is how this company does business to get whatever paperwork ready and I would be in the office on Monday to terminate this contract. She said, she would have the paperwork ready and to this day, it's not ready. I have an open account with EnerBank for $3285.50. I contacted them several times and to my understanding, every time they were taking care of it.

The last time I called, just to see if the account was still open, the girl told me I had to write a letter of complaint, in which I did, and mailed it on January 25, 2010. I called March 29, 2010, and the account is still open and they have not received the letter! The guy I spoke to this morning gave me a fax number, which I sent. I guess I will see if they receive this! This company is a joke! The account is open and showing that I owe $3285.50 for something I never received! This could ruin my credit and should be removed.

On July 30, 2007, we had a bath-tub liner installed along with a vinyl window and a sink installed. We were very happy with the work and the installer. Everything was fine up until 2 months ago. We started noticing cracks in the ceiling panel. On January 18th, I called to see what could or should be done. We were under the impression we had a lifetime guarantee. However, after 3 more calls, we still have not been contacted.

We saw the advertisement of the TV and made an appointment in early January. I was told they would be at my house on that Saturday at 9:00am. They never showed - I called many times to follow up and never received a reply as to why their estimator did not show.

I made another appointment in February and had the exact same experience. I made a third appointment on March 26 2010 for 10:00.am The estimator called at 9:00am. My wife told him we were expecting him and that I had stepped out for a minute but would be back in time for the appointment. He stated that he had to have both of us here. I returned several minutes later and returned his call. I could only get an answering service. I stated that I was home and we were standing by, waiting for him.

After two hours and many phone calls with no replies, at 12:14pm he called back and told me my wife said I was not home - and he had to see both husband and wife. I explained to him that I was only gone for a few minutes at 9:00am and our appointment was for 10:00am. He said that is not what my wife told him. When he discovered my wife was listening in on the other line he changed his story. This is a gyp and swindle organization - do not believe the TV ads - once they get your deposit you will be left holding the bag.

These people are crooks! My 86 year old mother contracted with this company on 10/20/09 (they cashed her check 2 days later) for a new accessible bath and made a 50% deposit (over $5,000 which was most of her savings) in order to get a $1,000 discount on the total job. She heard nothing from them about a specific start date although she was verbally promised to have it in by Christmas, 2009.

When she talked to the sales rep. she was told that the items that she had chosen were not available in the correct configuration to fit into the space, nor in the ordered color; although he had made numerous phone calls to verify what was ordered at the time of contract and taken all the measurements. She advised him to cancel the order and return her money 11/5/09.

The former owner, David ** contacted her daughter (me) on 12/4/09 after no response to numerous phone calls/messages and specifically a threat to report them. After hearing the problem, he agreed that the current owner, Mr. Terry ** needed to 'make things right'.

In January, after hearing nothing from Mr.G., a complaint was filed with the Better Business Bureau, although WV Re-Bath never responded to 2 requests from the BBB, a new representative set up an appointment for January 18, 2010 for he and Mr. G. to resolve the problem. At 3p.m. on the 18th, they called and canceled the appointment. At that point, a full refund check was demanded within 7 working days to be sent by registered mail. Nothing has been received and no response from 3 calls/ messages to the main office in Arizona. Further action is being taken and my mother has had to live with an unsafe bathroom because she can't afford to get someone else to do it. She has had her savings wiped out.

Contract signed on October 31, 2009. Paid 50% up front. I was told due to so many jobs before me it would be 10 weeks. I have contacted the answering but the owner will not return my calls. Also, the corporate office in Mesa, Arizona. I talked to Amy. No results. They promised to call but never do. I must take legal action to hopefully have my money returned. I live on a fixed income and this has caused me great stress. I had to seek medical help due to my blood pressure. This company needs to be investigated.

We had our tub removed and had a stand up shower installed. It was supposed to take 1 day maybe 2. Three days later, we still were without a shower. There was not suppose to be any caulking around the walls and base, but there is caulking all the way around, seamless shower walls, my foot. Now we have water leaking out onto the bathroom floor and behind the walls into the basement. We have called and no one will answer the phone. We leave messages and no one will call back. If you are considering ReBath, please reconsider. This is the worst mistake we have ever made for our home.

well 8 days later they left with a job that was so poorily done and not finished their bathroom is a mess they had to hire an electrician the elec. was supposedly included to come out so they would have a light in treir bathroom we have taken pics and on planning a civilsuit one unlicensed person was sent to do the job and after my parents paid 2500.00 we said no more they put a regular 200.00 bathtub in i hope nobody else uses their service

I was charged $175.00 to have the shower door placed where it belongs, where I was told it would go, where they are all placed in the showroom and I was yelled at and treated rudely by the owner Jennifer B. after spending $8,000.00 They refuse to refund the extra $175,00 and told me to take them to court. The also lied to the BBB saying many things that were not true. I have detailed records and photos....I PRAY THAT THIS IS THE LAST OF IT!

Now back to Rebath, they are no longer in business. They never had a plumbing license and the franchor in Az, a lovely person named Hedi, says we are in just screwed. They might be willing to fix the plumbing leak. The insurance company says we will need to get Rebath to pay for their mistake so collect from their insurance company. But you know the rest of the story Rebath didnt have insurance.

Their supposed 'lifetime' warranty is garbage!! I got liners installed in 2001. One of them has been pulling away from the tub and looks horrible. I have trying since June to get this liner replaced (one of their service guys actually saw the liner and said, "The liner needs to be replaced!").

Second, they claimed they gave me a 5-year-warranty back in 2001! Um, wrong again. I had a copy of the actual LIFETIME warranty that I also faxed and mailed over to them.

I have current complaints on file with both the BBB and Attorney General's office. DO NOT do business with this company, unless you want to be stuck with a rotting, useless liner in a few years.

A week and a half ago I had a free home estimate from Rebath sales rep Carrie & Rob. They gave my no brochures or other material indicating the price quoted. They spent alot of time badmouthing competitors. Someone from the office called to follow up & left a voicemail on my home phone. I am not interested in going with ReBath, so I did not return the call.

Today the same person called my cell phone. I answered and told him "I am not going with you, Goodbye" and I hung up (I was with a client at the time). When I returned home, there was a message from this same male on my home phone stating "Hi Robin, thanks for returning my call and hanging up on me."

First of all, I never returned any call to him. I hung up the phone after I said goodbye & that I'm not using ReBath. This display of unprofessionalism and immaturity is one of the reasons I will NEVER use this service. If the office/sales staff act this way I wonder what their other service people are like. This is disgraceful!

on 10/10/08 signed a contract to have our bathroom done after sales rep measured, reviewed and settled on a price. 3 days later the company owner called and said that bill made a "math mistake" and the job went from $6178.00 to $11,339.00!!! After much yelling on my part he graciously brought price down to $8146.00. I stood firm and said we had a signed contract with a %50 deposit on my credit card. They never processed the deposit, but refused to honor the original contract. I do not have anything in writing from them denying the contract, just verbal. I thought that they had to follow through with the original contract, am I wrong?

I signed a contract with Re-Bath of Connecticut dated 5/5/09 to have my upstairs bathroom renovated. The installation date on the contract is 7/2/09. I paid a deposit of $2,365, which is 50% of the price, up front. The sales rep said there might be a slight delay due to an office move, but the job would be done at the latest by the end of July.

It is now August and Re-Bath still has not even scheduled the job. Further, they moved and did not provide a valid new address or phone number. I went to the supposed new address, and it is the 2nd floor of a 2-family house. The phone number had a recording "you have reached a restricted number." I also went to their old address -- which is still given on their website as their address -- and it is vacant.

I faxed the corporate office of Re-Bath in Arizona, also left messages for them, but did not get a reply. I went in person to the insurance company whose Certificate of Insurance Re-Bath has. The insurance company verified that they insure Re-Bath but tried to call while I was there and could not get ahold of Re-Bath either.

Today I got a phone call from Re-Bath's scheduling clerk Grace. She told me they are now located at North Haven, CT 06473 with phone -1600 (her number showed up on my caller ID as 1601). She says she still does not have a ship date when the materials for my job will be trucked to Connecticut from Re-Bath's facility in Arizona. I asked "when did you order the materials?" and she could not tell me a date. She said she didn't know whether the office in Arizona had received the order because she does not have a confirmation from them.

In the meantime on my answering machine I got a call from "Amy" in the Arizona office, merely telling me the new Connecticut phone number and advising me to call there to get my problem resolved. According to the CT Dept. of Consumer Protection, under Connecticut law if it is 30 days past the scheduled date and substantial work has not been done, I have the right to cancel the contract and demand that Re-Bath refund my payment.

From what Grace told me today, no substantial work has been done: she did not have any confirmation from the Re-Bath materials fulfillment center that they had received her order. No materials have been delivered to the job site. Furthermore, the CT Dept. of Consumer Protection says the language of Re-Bath's contract is in violation of CT law, as contractors are required to give a definite start date and completion date, not an approximate date as their contract says.

I have sent a certified letter (also by regular mail) to both of the "new" addresses demanding refund of my $2,365.00 deposit by 8/17 or else I will take further action. I have also filed complaints with the CT Dept. of Consumer Protection and the Better Business Bureau of CT.

October 2008, started the contracts and ordering of materials for remodeling of 2 bathrooms at a cost of $7000 with receiving a 10% cash discount. We paid all of the money up front because the owner seemed genuine and the corporation had been around for years. January 2009, told materials were in and the contractor began demolition on the first bathroom. The contractor replaced some drywall, got the shower pan down and put up the cement board in the shower. He also took down half of a wall between the shower and the vanity that was going to be replaced with glass. The contractor was slow to get any work done and he didnt work full days.

Then the contractor just stopped showing up. The owner Mr. Dave F, of Monument, Colorado, gave the excuse that the contractor was sick. David showed up a couple of days to paint the bathroom walls and cabinets. He appeared to come clean and said that his contractor wasnt really sick. The real reason for the delay was that his contractor of 8-years took everything out of his warehouse and ran off with it. I was told that Id get $1000 discount due to the issues and inconvenience, but never received it.

February 15, 2009 Mr. Dave F sold the company to the Denver office. We were told by Mr. F that Rebath corporate would take over and complete the work. I called corporate office and after many messages later finally got a hold of someone who sent out a husband and wife team to assess where we were in the process around April 2009. They work for Am Bath, which remodels hotels and motels. They told me that Mr. F left 80 other families in Colorado Springs in various states of bad remodels. He gladly took their money without remorse. Dave was also performing jobs he was not qualified to do, such as installing new cabinets, plumbing, and countertops, which was what he was scheduled to do in my second bathroom that fortunately he didnt start on. My re-evaluation by Am Bath was in April 2009 and now it is late July 2009 without a phone call from them stating when my bathroom will be started.

I started this process 9 months ago and I am out $7000. My family of six cannot use the shower because it has been demolished. I am down to one bathroom. My upstairs bathroom remodel was not started. All I ask is for Rebath to either give me my money back (preferred) or finish the job in a timely matter, but being timely isnt a quality that they embrace.

Due to my wife's leg problems we had do a tub to shower conversion at the cost of $7000.00. They did not anchor the base solid. The base now bounces like a trampoline and you lose your balance when you have to move around. It is very unsafe. They have been here twice to look at the problem and both times they agreed there is a problem. The installer and the Re-Baths main office does not return phone calls. This has been going on for 5 months.

I am afraid my wife is going to lose her balance and fall through the glass doors.

Gave Rebath a 50% deposit in August of 2008 to do the hall and master bathrooms. They ordered a 36 shower base instead of the 38 base that was currently in the bath. They discovered this after they demolished the existing shower. They tried to fool me into thinking they could make this the same size as the old shower. I would not accept this and told them to order the correct size. They also damaged the ceiling in the kitchen below the bathroom. Then they did a sloppy patch saying they would fix it later. Now I no longer had a working bathroom. They told me they would rush order a new shower base and doors.

After 5 weeks and no calls I phoned them. I was told they would call me in 1-2 weeks. Still no call 2 weeks later. I called them and was told the boss was out of the office. Left my name and number for him to call back. Never called back. At this point 7 weeks later called Corp.HQ in Tempe AZ. They took the info and opened a complaint file and nothing else happened. I gave them over $5100 as a deposit and they are not getting back to me. I sent them a certified letter. Now I have hire a new contractor to fix their damage and have to take them to small claims court for the deposit and repairs to the bathroom and kitchen.

BTW they are not cheap. The cost for 2 very small bathrooms only doing the tub shower and walls was just under $20,000. They hit you with outrageous costs when they come to your home to reset toilets and vanities that they needed to remove to put up their walls. Do yourself a favor and get real tiles. The cost is about the same.

While removing the shower drain the worker damaged the ceiling directly below this in my kitchen. This was a brand new ceiling installed when I remodeled the kitchen 5 years ago. The ceiling split and bulged open. I was sitting directly under there and just moved out of the way in time as I thought to myself that the ceiling might come down the way he was pounding away above me. Then they demolished the master bath. After demo they realize they had the wrong size. They started to build out the walls of the shower to compensate for their mistake and I stopped them immediately when I saw what they were doing.

They ripped everything down, removed their tools and have never returned. They left the sink in the hall bathroom unfinished after lying about what they had done to switch the doors and drawers around because of the interference with the water valves. They charged me $625 and told me they would finish the job the next day. Of course they didn't but they got that money plus I paid over $5100 in deposit money for the master bath that they left ruined. Terrible, terrible customer service. I am a single woman and feel they took advantage of this situation. They are preditors in my view. Stay away from rebath.

I called ReBath to come and remodel my bathroom. Rebath was very slow at returning my call and when ReBath finally Did return my call, ReBath was rude on the phone. ReBath finally came to the house only to have ReBath send an arrogant ReBath representative. The ReBath salesman wanted $7000 to remodel my bathroom. I asked about a local competitor and the ReBath guy proceeded to bash the competition, never a good sign. They then pressured me to sign with ReBath, needless to say I didnt sign with ReBath.

On the ReBath.com web site, I typed my zipcode to find the installation contractor in my area. ReBath is a franchise business located in Arizona that supplies acrylic tub and wall liners. Weatherly had the franchise to sell and install ReBath for my area. I signed a contract 5/15/08 for installation of Re-Bath, and wrote a check for $1,750 payable to Re-bath.

On 7/7/09, I called Glen (of Weatherly) to ask how the order was coming along. He stated that they had not yet ordered the parts because they were having trouble getting the money together. I immediately called Re-Bath and spoke with Heidi. Re-bath had no record of me. I faxed my contract to Re-Bath, and was told that Weatherly ceased being an authorized installer as of 6/10/08. I called Glen Carwile and demanded my money back. He said OK. The next day, I got a voice mail from Kevin of Weatherly. I called him back late afternoon. He said Glen tells me you're having concerns about the contract. I stated that Glen said that parts had not yet been ordered. He stated Glen doesn't know.

Then I brought up the termination of Weatherly's franchise agreement on 6/10/08. He said Weatherly cut off Re-Bath (not Re-Bath cut off Weatherly), and I replied that I didn't see what difference it makes. The situation is the same. Weatherly can no longer install Re-Bath. Kevin of Weatherly stated that he could complete his contracts. I've complained to the BBB, Fairfax County Consumer Protection Services, and Virginia Board of Occupational and Professional Licensing. Fairfax County sent him my complaint with 10 days to reply, and he did not reply. A second letter with 7 days to reply just went out.

My $1,750 check payable to Re-Bath was cashed by someone other than Re-Bath. No acrylic liner has been ordered. No work has been done.

I called them today again and waiting for them to call me back.
