  • What is the CleanCut Step?

We remove a portion of the front side of the bathtub to add step-in accessibility. Conveniently, it configures from a step-in to a full bath in seconds with a plug insert. The CleanCut step provides individuals, particularly the elderly or the handicapped, a safer entry into a bathtub/shower area.

  • What can I do to update countertops?

    We can resurface an existing countertop or install a new one. When resurfacing, several different colors are blended together to create a dimensional stone look finish that is applied over an exsiting countertop. If a new countertop is what you desire, we can install a solid surface or quartz countertop. Both are non-porous and resist stains, mold, and bacteria. In addition, both are extremely durable and easy to clean.
