<p>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!</p>
 
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.
 
<p>I just spent thousands of dollars to replace a too-small bathtub. (Had to rebuild the platform).</p>

<p>Many very high-end tubs are made of acrylic.</p>

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

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

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

<p>To each his preference.</p>
 
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.
 
<p>Not sure.</p>

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

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

<p>- preserve heat longer than cast iron tubs</p>
 
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.
