Xpress Bath has remodeled hundreds of bathrooms in New York City.  Unlike other parts of the country, New York City bathroom remodeling projects have their own unique sets of issues.  Truth be told, most New York City bathrooms are very similar in size, configuration and materials historically used.  However, what has changed dramatically over the past 15 years are the type of materials used, fixtures available and methods of installation.  At Xpress Bath, we are constantly investigating new materials and methods of installation tailored specifically for our New York Metro customers.  As every New Yorker knows, time is a precious commodity.  At Xpress Bath, we have engineered processes to get your bathroom remodeled as efficiently as possible.

One example of materials evolution that has benefited our New York City customers is the use of acrylic wall liners and tub and shower surrounds instead of ceramic tile.  Although we continue to install a large amount of ceramic tile flooring, we have seen a shift toward modern acrylic wall materials that simulate the look and feel of tile or marble in the wet area of the bath or shower. Unlike some less attractive acrylic products offered by Bathfitter or Rebath, Xpress Bath carries a wide array of wall systems made of acrylic and other modern materials that reproduce the look and feel of modern tile, marble and granite in a maintenance free substrate.  In addition to providing a durable and maintenance-free finish, these modern materials can be installed very quickly and at a much lower cost than conventional ceramic tile, marble or granite.  The efficient installation of these materials at a lower cost is of high value to our Metro New York City, New Jersey and Westchester County bathroom remodeling customers.

Although Xpress Bath’s acrylic simulated tile and marble wall systems are installed at a lower cost than conventional tile and marble, the materials are NOT cheap.  In fact, modern acrylic bath materials are higher quality than most ceramic tile without the detrimental maintenance issues associated with porous grout used in ceramic tile installations.  Although the material cost for these modern bath systems is higher than ceramic tile, the total cost of installation is lower than ceramic tile due to the labor savings during installation.  The speed of installation allows Xpress Bath to install a complete bathroom in as little as three (3) days as opposed to two (2) weeks.  This speedy installation at a lower cost than tile is of high value to our New York City customers that often only have one (1) bathroom.  Below are a couple of examples of modern wall finishes provided and installed by Xpress Bath.
