Best Custom Electrical Work in Phoenix AZ
I hate my bathroom shower. I hate it with the white hot burning flames of a thousand suns. I spent a huge amount of money on this shower expecting an ADA type roll-in shower suitable for bathing a patient in a wheelchair. Nothing is as promised, and it looks and functions even worse as time goes on. Avoid Dreamstyle Remodeling at all costs. This has been the worst experience my husband and I have ever had with any home company in 35 years of owning many homes and rental properties. The shower is difficult to clean, dangerous, and uncomfortable for anyone to use. It is so inefficient that bathing my husband now has to include an extra 10 minutes of squeegeeing water back up the ramp onto the shower base. There are numerous failures; serious dangerous design flaws, failing caulk, and maintenance issues as well. These people act like experts, but I can now see the things they recommended were never going to work. The design was flawed to begin with. things that I specified in the plans were either changed during the construction or completely ignored. Water runs out of the shower and pools on the floor. A care giver wall that is 6 inches higher than was specified, so I have to stand on a 6 inch stool. I have slipped and fallen off that stool countless times. The materials are not what i expected, hard to clean and so fragile.The shower base is far thicker material than I was led to believe. When we met with the designer he inexplicably did not have a sample of the shower base material. If I had seen the shower base material first, I never would have chosen this company. They talked about a transition strip but it is really a ramp. It will never give you a comfortable level-entry shower. The base material is very thick, heavily textured and easily damaged. Maintenance is a nightmare. It always looks filthy, even after scrubbing with a brush. It is easily damaged just from dropping bottles of shampoo on it. The shower base is so much thicker than regular tile that it needs a ramp to adjust for the higher level. My husband is a quadriplegic, and rolling him into the shower up the ramp always puts lateral movement on his neck and head, and it causes pain no matter how slowly I go.Not only was nothing in the shower was done to the original specs as agreed upon, I now know I paid at least triple (300%) more than I would have paid a regular tile guy.After every shower, I have to squeegee a large amount of water that runs out of the shower and pools in the middle of the floor. When I called the company and BEGGED them to open the drain they covered over, (the drain that was under the tub and is still there) they refused to do so. As a matter of fact the quickest response ever from this company was the letter threatening legal action and a lien on my house. While I was calling and leaving messages begging for a simple hole to be cut, they were sending legal letters.This shower looks horrible, the base is chipped and dirty looking even after scrubbing. Not only was the caulking job the messiest I have ever seen when the shower was first completed, the caulk now has failed in numerous places. In order to sell this house I will have to rip out everything this company touched and re-do it all correctly. So much time and money absolutely wasted. Calling Dreamstyle Remodeling created a never-ending nightmare for me and my family.
