Bathtub Enhancements

Bathtub Enhancements

Bathtub liners and wall surrounds are outstanding answers if you have an extremely worn, damaged, rusted, or otherwise abused bathtub. The bathtub will have a whole new life without having to be demolished and replaced, and the work can normally be completed in less than a day's time and perhaps even in a few hours!

Replacing a bathtub is very expensive, time consuming, and messy. A liner system saves you thousands of dollars as well as time and many headaches. The workmen are bonded and specialized technicians and are not just ordinary handymen; they are well-experienced bathroom remodelers.

Bathtub Liners

The liner can redeem even the most severely damaged tub. Manufactured from quarter-inch solid-core vinyl, it fits over the existing tub, is practically invincible to physical damage, provides a high-gloss finish, is easy to maintain, is HUD tested and approved, and can last 20 years or longer.

The liner does not crack, peel, chip, or stain, and no paint or offensive and dangerous chemicals are used.  Each installation includes a new overflow and drain fixture and silicone caulking. The tub is ready for use the very next day!

Wall Surrounds

They are an excellent alternative to messy grout and tile. The material used is similar to the bathtub liners and has the same durability. Available are simulated-tile and flat-panel models, with the former retaining the classic tile look while eliminating the hassles of maintaining grout, which means no more flakes, chips, or mildew. 

A surround can fit over the walls, cover all the way from the floor to the top of the tile, or to the ceiling, or be on both walls and ceiling.  Any existing water damage or leaks are repaired free of charge by the technicians before installation. Again, no harsh chemicals are used, and the bathroom is ready to be used the next day.

Porcelite Enterprises is proud to be the only North America company that manufactures and also does not outsource but installs its own custom-made liners and surrounds. Every make and model of bathtub is included in their inventory of more than 100 molds. Their facility in Beltsville, Maryland, has served the Washington DC//Baltimore area since 1961.

The entire design and manufacturing process from your first phone call or consultation to the measurements and initial estimate to the actual installation occurs within one week and not the four to six weeks of their competitors. The timing depends on the configuration of the bathroom since no two are alike. Money is saved because there is no extra cost by middlemen and that double markup, and downtime is kept to a minimum.

 

Keys to Getting a Good Night's Sleep

Few things in life are more important than sleep. When you are sleep-deprived, it's hard to find joy as you go about your day, and it's even more difficult to accomplish your work and personal tasks. If you want to improve your sleep quality, keep these important tips in mind.

Prepare Early

The time to start preparing for a good night's sleep is long before you turn out the lights. Experts recommend that you don't consume any caffeine after dinner, and stay away from heavy, fried foods in the hours leading up to bedtime. In addition, the blue light emitted by your phone or computer screen signals to your body that it's time to wake up, not time to sleep. If possible, power off those devices an hour or so before bed to start winding down.

Create the Right Environment

Unless you're one of those lucky people who can fall asleep anytime, anywhere, you need to create the proper environment to signal to your body that it's time to sleep. Keep your bedroom at a cool, comfortable temperature, and find bedding that keeps you cool all night. Your bedroom should feel like a retreat from the craziness of the rest of the world, so try to keep potentially stressful items like work folders out of there. Many people find that aromatherapy, such as diffusing lavender, is an excellent way to create an environment that encourages restful sleep.

Increase Comfort

If you find that you are tossing and turning during the night, or if you tend to wake up sore and achy, what you are sleeping on might be a big part of the problem. It's important to have quality, supportive mattresses and pillows to get the type of sleep that you need. There are plenty of mattress stores in Mesa AZ that offer a huge variety of products, but you need to find the type of mattress that meets your body's specific needs.

If you mattress doesn't feel soft enough, a pillow top mattress might be an excellent choice for you. These mattresses provide abundant softness while also providing support. When you visit the mattress store, don't be afraid to lie down and try out the mattresses! Testing them out is a great way to find the right levels of softness and support.

By implementing these ideas, you can enjoy a good night's sleep tonight, and wake up rested and ready to tackle the day!
