Enrique and his crew did an outstanding job painting the exterior of my house and shed, stained a deck and replaced 2 windows. They were professional, punctual, and the quality of work exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend Custom Kitchens by Lopez for any home improvement project.

Enrique and his team are real professionals. I initially hired him to do some interior painting. He repaired the walls, ceilings and painted everything beautifully. The work was so impressive that I hired him for additional projects. His attention to detail is remarkable and his pricing is very fair.

A tub to shower conversion in NJ often starts around $6,000-$12,000 for a simpler replacement, $12,000-$25,000+ for custom tile and frameless glass, and $20,000-$40,000+ when the project includes curbless entry, major plumbing changes, premium fixtures, or full bathroom upgrades. The exact quote depends on the room, waterproofing, tile, glass, and plumbing scope.
Yes. Custom Kitchens by Lopez removes outdated bathtubs and installs walk-in showers with waterproofing, tile, low-threshold or curbless entries, niches, benches, fixtures, and glass enclosures where appropriate.
Many tub-to-shower conversions take one to three weeks depending on demolition, plumbing, tile layout, waterproofing cure time, glass measurement, and inspection requirements. A custom tiled shower usually takes longer than a simple insert replacement.
