I just purchased a house and need to do a full bathroom remodel of a 9×6 family bathroom. Does anyone have any opinions or advice on which is the better deal with regards to time and money … A general contractor/Home Depot or one of those bathroom showrooms which claim to be a one stop shop? I am looking for a pretty standard remodel - tile floor, double vanity sinks, tiled bath and shower combo area.

My parents are looking to replace their old tile & grout with something else. One contractor recommended replacing the old tile/grout with a 3-piece acrylic unit, and putting down an acrylic liner over the old tub & replacing the fixtures. Another contractor recommended putting up cement board, covering with new tile, and replacing the tub & fixtures. The second guy said he quit using the acrylic because it didn’t work well (leaky, adhesive would come undone after a few years, etc.). Personally, I don’t want to deal with cleaning the tile and grout, but if the acrylic is going to fall off the wall in 5 years, I don’t want to go that route either. Anybody have any knowledge of which is the better system?
- P.S. - We’re not interested in getting fancy w/ the design; just plain boring white will be going up either way. Thanks!

I’m looking at my options for granite countertops in my kitchen as I am remodeling. Opalescence seems nice and is on the cheaper end as well. Any thoughts on the value of that specific type of granite or alternative recommendations would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
