Mr. Bath, your Covington, Louisiana-based bathroom remodeling company serving homeowners across the Gulf South, has been named to Qualified Remodeler's Top 500 list for 2026. The recognition places Mr. Bath among the nation's largest and most respected remodeling companies, a list that collectively generated $26.9 billion in remodeling revenue during 2025 across firms specializing in everything from full-service renovation to kitchen and bath replacement.
For a locally rooted small business built around bathroom transformations, earning a spot on a national ranking of this size is a significant milestone. It reflects years of steady growth, consistent customer satisfaction, and a reputation that has spread well beyond the company's home base on the Northshore.
About Mr. Bath
Mr. Bath is a Covington-based bathroom remodeling company known for fast, high-quality tub and shower installations. The company is a BBB-accredited business with an A+ rating, has been recognized as a HomeAdvisor "Top Rated" provider, and works with Sentrel, a manufacturer that has itself earned Inc. 5000 recognition. Mr. Bath is led by principal Chris Franzo, who has built the company around a simple promise: deliver premium bathroom remodels without the months-long timelines that homeowners have come to expect from traditional renovation projects.
Rather than positioning itself as a general contractor handling every room in the house, Mr. Bath has focused specifically on bathrooms, allowing the team to move quickly, control quality closely, and specialize in the products and installation methods that matter most for tubs, showers, and full bath conversions.
Services Offered
Mr. Bath's service menu is built around speed and customization, giving homeowners a range of options depending on their budget, timeline, and accessibility needs.
- New bathtub installations
- Bathtub replacement and full bathtub remodels
- Walk-in and custom shower installation
- Tub-to-shower conversions
- ADA-compliant and accessible bathing solutions, including walk-in and barrier-free showers
- Design consultation and personalized bathroom planning
- Flexible financing options and product warranties
Every project is backed by manufacturer warranties and supported by an in-house team that manages the process from the initial design consultation through final installation, rather than handing projects off to a rotating group of subcontractors.
Service Areas
Mr. Bath serves homeowners throughout South Louisiana, with a service footprint that includes Covington, New Orleans, and Lafayette, along with the surrounding Northshore and Southeast Louisiana communities. This regional focus allows the company to maintain quick scheduling and consistent crew quality across every job site, rather than stretching resources across a sprawling multi-state territory.
Reviews and Reputation
Mr. Bath's reputation is built on a combination of third-party accreditation and consistent, positive customer feedback. The company holds an A+ rating and accreditation from the Better Business Bureau, a distinction that reflects sustained business integrity and a track record of resolving customer concerns professionally. It has also earned HomeAdvisor's "Top Rated" designation, a status reserved for contractors who consistently deliver strong customer experiences.
Customer reviews frequently highlight the same themes: a smooth process from first phone call through final walkthrough, installers who are friendly and efficient, and finished bathrooms that exceed expectations. Homeowners often single out individual crew members and designers by name, a small but telling sign of a company where customer relationships, not just transactions, drive repeat referrals and word-of-mouth growth.
Why Mr. Bath Was Chosen as a Top 500 Qualified Remodeler
Qualified Remodeler has tracked the country's largest remodeling and home improvement companies since 1978, and its Top 500 list has become one of the industry's most closely watched benchmarks. According to the publication's editorial team, companies are evaluated against a consistent set of criteria, including installed remodeling dollar volume, total years in business, industry association membership, industry certifications, industry awards, and community service.
Qualified Remodeler's own analysis of this year's list notes that TOP 500 firms tend to share several common attributes, including strong revenues, a commitment to customer service, insightful sales techniques and strong customer loyalty, and that these attributes are what set list members apart. Mr. Bath's inclusion reflects that same combination: sustained revenue growth built on genuine demand rather than one-off projects, a business model designed around customer convenience and speed, and a reputation for follow-through that shows up consistently in reviews and BBB standing.
For a company headquartered in Covington rather than a major metro hub, landing on a national list dominated by large multi-market operators is a meaningful statement about how far Mr. Bath's reputation has traveled. It signals that the fundamentals the company has emphasized since day one, fast turnarounds, transparent pricing, and dependable installation crews, have scaled without diluting the customer experience that built the brand in the first place.
What This Recognition Means for Louisiana Homeowners
For homeowners in Covington, New Orleans, Lafayette, and the surrounding Northshore communities, this recognition offers an added layer of confidence when choosing a bathroom remodeling partner. A Top 500 placement isn't awarded for a single great project; it reflects sustained performance across an entire year of work, verified against objective financial and operational criteria rather than self-reported testimonials alone.
Combined with its A+ BBB rating and HomeAdvisor Top Rated status, Mr. Bath's Top 500 recognition rounds out a reputation built on three independent forms of validation: regulatory accreditation, customer review platforms, and now, industry-wide performance ranking. For anyone weighing a bathroom renovation in South Louisiana, that combination is worth factoring into the decision.
