WHAT?

That was my thinking also but wanted to see what other suggestions might be available. I hate the crap. Takes forever to get a good coat of paint on and takes more paint to do so. Also want to put crown molding up but it would look like a$$ on walls with this texture.

The only other thing that may be happening is that your washer isn't spinning enough to get rid of excess water after the final rinse.
Check you lint trap by running it under some water. Some fabric softeners will leave a film on the trap that is invisible to the naked eye.

How much should I expect to pay for tearing out an old tub/shower unit and installation of a new one?

What's the complete scope of work, Saul? Based upon what little information you've provided my best guess is $750-2000. Plus materials.

as an old plumber i can say this with confidence. it may cost a little, it may cost alot. but whatever the case may be, it'll cost you.

by the way, don't skimp on quality. buy a good product.you'll thank yourself down the road.

Uh...i'm not sure what details I need here. I'd actually prefer to rip out the tub and put in a shower door + wall.

So what you're saying is you want a walk-in shower instead of a tub?

You want a crappy plastic one piece unit or are you looking to do a halfway decent shower unit with tile?
