Is JLH going to be sealing your kitchen's/bathrooms' countertops and backsplashes? I assumed sealing would come standard, but was informed that JLH will be delivering the homes in Pacifica San Juan unsealed!
 
Whatever with that. What I want to know is, for a $1M plus home, are you getting a plastic/fiberglass tub in the secondary baths or are they giving you the quality cast iron ones?
 
Good question - to be completely honest with you, I haven't really checked. Gosh...I may sound totally clueless...but I've just noticed that they're white tubs...seems to be the same ones in all of the model homes I've viewed.
 
I just spent thousands of dollars to replace a too-small bathtub. (Had to rebuild the platform).

Many very high-end tubs are made of acrylic.

Why do you like cast iron more? I know it's tradition, but why?
 
I see.

Mine isn't jetted, because we did not have a dedicated circuit ready.

Most of these tubs come both ways (jetted and not), so people definately buy them. And they're not cheap.

To each his preference.
 
It's nothing personal. My shower is fiberglass and it cracked in the pan after only 4 years. Hence, I have a bias. What's interesting is that Warmington uses cast iron, but Lyon does not - even in its $1M + homes.
 
Not sure.

I may have this wrong, but I thought cast iron draws the heat out sooner.
 
From what I've read, acrylic tubs are preferred because they:

- are stronger, yet lighter than cast iron tubs (which will require more floor support)

- preserve heat longer than cast iron tubs
 
Self-pedicure is good. Several of my patients recently have complained of fungal infections resulting from pedicures - maybe at less than ideal salons, but nonetheless, fungal infections - ewww.
