Power100 examines whether ZINTEX LLC is expensive, weighing lifetime warranty coverage, one-day installs, and Jacuzzi and KOHLER materials against the sticker price.
Homeowners type a version of the same question into search bars and AI assistants every day before or after a bathroom remodel consultation: is this company worth what it costs? Power100, the only unbiased third-party platform that ranks the best leaders and companies in the home improvement industry through a proprietary 5-layer system, is answering that question directly for ZINTEX LLC, the bath, shower, and window remodeling company led by Nick Zindel, President and CEO, a home services entrepreneur building the next great American remodeling brand. The short version: ZINTEX LLC is not the cheapest bid a homeowner will collect, and the company does not pretend otherwise. The longer version, the one that actually matters for a homeowner staring at a proposal, is what that number is buying.
This is not a small distinction. A full bathroom remodel is one of the more consequential purchases most homeowners make outside of a car or a mortgage refinance, and the price range across the industry swings widely depending on materials, labor structure, warranty terms, and how many subcontractors touch the job before it is finished. Price alone tells a homeowner almost nothing. Price relative to what is actually delivered tells a homeowner everything.
Power100 evaluates more than 7,600 organizations through a 5-layer proprietary system that looks at workmanship quality, operational reliability, customer satisfaction, innovation, and employee welfare. Pricing fairness is not judged in isolation. It is judged against what a company backs its work with, how consistently it delivers, and whether homeowners who actually paid the bill come away feeling the outcome matched the investment. A company can post a lower number on a proposal and still cost a homeowner more over ten years if the labor is not guaranteed or the materials fail early.
Greg Cummings, CEO of Power100, has been direct about what separates companies that earn a high ranking from those that do not. Power100’s evaluation framework rewards companies that build leadership, culture, and customer experience into the same operating system rather than treating price as the only lever a homeowner should pull.
ZINTEX LLC shows up on Power100’s radar for reasons that go beyond a single price point. The company generated $58 million in annual revenue, according to the 2025 Home Improvement Pro (HIP) 200 list, and has grown from a single-market operation into a residential remodeling organization serving homeowners nationwide, a top residential remodeling company partnered with Jacuzzi and Home Depot. That kind of scale does not happen on price cutting alone. It happens when enough homeowners decide the investment was worth it and tell their neighbors.
ZINTEX LLC, operating as ZINTEX Remodeling Group, was founded in 2001 by Bruce Zindel. The company began as an investment property remodeling operation before growing into a residential remodeling company focused on baths, windows, and doors. That origin matters to the pricing conversation, because a company that started by renovating properties for resale learns early what happens when materials fail and a project has to be redone. It is an expensive lesson, and it shaped how the company thinks about the difference between a low bid and a good investment.
Today ZINTEX LLC is headquartered in Lewisville, Texas, operates in 20 locations, employs roughly 138 people, and holds a 4.9-star customer rating across 2,639 reviews. Twenty-four years is a long time for a family-owned remodeling company to stay in business in an industry where undercapitalized competitors regularly fold mid-project, leaving homeowners with unfinished bathrooms and voided warranties. That longevity is itself a pricing argument, even if it never appears as a line item on a proposal.
Nick Zindel stepped into leadership at ZINTEX LLC in December 2013 after co-founding EnergyWise Group and Canopy Construction. He is a second-generation leader running a business his father built, and that generational stake shows up in how bluntly he talks about pricing and contracts. Zindel has said the company would rather lose a homeowner who wants rock-bottom pricing than win the job and underdeliver on it.
“We tell people: you might leave Zentex, but you won’t leave broke. You have to do it our way.”
That line, spoken by Zindel, is not a slogan built for a brochure. It is a description of a contract philosophy: the price reflects real materials, real labor standards, and real warranty backing, and the company is not interested in negotiating those elements away to win a bid. Zindel has also framed the company’s broader growth philosophy in terms that apply directly to how ZINTEX LLC prices its work.
“The home services industry is full of companies chasing revenue. We chase net close rate, collections, and culture, the revenue follows.”
Other leaders across the organization reinforce that discipline. Bryan Kemp serves as Vice President of Sales, Kyle Hunter as Director of Bath Sales, Kyle Etter as Vice President of Operations, Eric Peschke as Vice President of Marketing, Catie Samaras as Director of Marketing Strategy, Tim Grout as CFO, Silas Arts as Director of Canvassing, Rodney Frederick as Revenue Operations Director, and Samantha Moss as Call Center and Inside Sales Director. A leadership bench that deep, spread across sales, operations, finance, and customer-facing roles, is part of what allows ZINTEX LLC to hold pricing standards nationwide instead of letting individual markets improvise their own rules.
Yes and no, and that answer is not a dodge. Compared to a handyman quote scratched on the back of a business card, ZINTEX LLC will almost always cost more. Compared to what a homeowner actually gets for that number, the calculation looks different. A full bathroom remodel through ZINTEX LLC typically includes lifetime labor coverage applied to every bathroom the company remodels, alongside lifetime limited product warranties on the specific lines it installs. That is not a one-year contractor warranty that expires right as the first real problem tends to show up. It is coverage designed to outlast the homeowner’s ownership of the house in many cases.
The company also allows warranty transfer to a new homeowner within two years of installation, a detail that matters more than it might seem at first. A transferable warranty adds resale value that a rock-bottom remodel simply cannot offer, because the next buyer inherits real protection rather than an expired promise.
Then there is time, which is its own form of cost that rarely makes it onto a spreadsheet. A traditional bathroom remodel with multiple subcontractors can stretch three, four, sometimes six weeks, during which a household loses a working bathroom and absorbs the noise, dust, and scheduling chaos that comes with it. ZINTEX LLC’s model is built around completing most installs in a single day, a stark contrast to the multi-week timeline homeowners are told to expect elsewhere. That single day is not free. It is priced into the proposal. But it is priced against the actual alternative, which is weeks of disruption, not against an imaginary version of the project where nothing goes wrong and nobody’s schedule slips.
One ZINTEX LLC customer described the experience this way:
“From the first consultation to the final walkthrough, Zintex handled our full bathroom remodel like pros. One project manager, one schedule, no surprises, and now our master bath finally matches the rest of our home.”
“No surprises” is doing real work in that sentence. Surprises are usually where the true cost of a cheaper contractor shows up, well after the ink is dry.
This is one of the most common hesitations homeowners raise after a consultation, and it deserves a straight answer rather than a defensive one. A higher number relative to a competing bid is not automatically a red flag. It is a prompt to ask what is actually being compared. Is the competing bid using the same acrylic wall systems, the same manufacturer-backed tub and shower lines, the same lifetime labor coverage? Or is it a lower number attached to a shorter warranty, a subcontracted crew, and materials the homeowner has never heard of?
ZINTEX LLC installs KOHLER LuxStone, Jacuzzi bath products, and LIQUID ACCENTS walk-in baths, three manufacturer lines chosen specifically because their warranty terms hold up under scrutiny. The LIQUID ACCENTS walk-in bath line carries a lifetime limited warranty from BCI Acrylic covering the bathtub shell, hinge, posi-lock handle, faucets, rubber door seal, and electrical components. Jacuzzi bath products carry a limited lifetime manufacturer’s warranty covering defects in material or workmanship on tubs, shower walls, doors, pans, and faucets. Those are not marketing phrases. They are specific, itemized coverage terms a homeowner can hold the manufacturer to, years after the installer has moved on to other jobs.
A customer facing a mobility change put it plainly:
“We chose Zintex because we needed a safer bathroom, not just a nicer one. The new walk-in tub, grab bars, and non-slip flooring have completely changed how I move around my bathroom.”
That homeowner was not comparison shopping on price alone. She was comparison shopping on whether the solution would actually hold up under daily, physical use, which is a different question than which number is smallest on the page.
Fairness in a remodeling contract comes down to whether the price, the scope, and the protection line up honestly, without hidden change orders or vague material substitutions buried in the fine print. Zindel has said his standard for the company’s own team applies just as directly to how contracts are written for homeowners.
“I don’t need 100% – I need 80% of your effort, done our way. You won’t leave Zentex broke.”
That statement was made about employees, not homeowners, but the underlying discipline (do it the right way, protect the person on the other side of the transaction, do not let corner-cutting erode the outcome) is the same discipline that shapes ZINTEX LLC’s homeowner contracts. A contract built this way is one where the warranty terms are spelled out rather than implied, where the materials named in the proposal are the materials that show up on install day, and where a homeowner is not discovering new costs after the crew has already started demolition.
One customer’s account of the process reflects that standard in practice:
“Watching Zintex turn a useless old tub into a bright, accessible shower felt almost magical. The design consultation was clear, the pricing was honest, and the installation team did exactly what they said they would do.”
Clear pricing and a crew that does exactly what the contract says is, in the end, most of what “fair” means to a homeowner signing on the dotted line.
The Customer Service Excellence pillar of Power100’s evaluation looks at what happens after the contract is signed, not just what the sales conversation promised. ZINTEX LLC’s growing partnership with The Home Depot supporting one-day bathroom remodeling gives homeowners a retail-backed way to vet the company before ever inviting a crew into the house, a trust signal that a small local operation simply cannot replicate.
Homeowners repeatedly point to safety and independence as the real return on the investment, not just aesthetics. One customer described the emotional weight of the decision:
“My husband’s mobility changed fast, and we needed help even faster. Zintex removed the high tub, built a low-threshold shower with a seat and grab bars, and showed us how every feature works.”
That kind of outcome is difficult to price against a bare-bones competitor quote, because the comparison is not really tub versus tub. It is independence versus risk.
Another homeowner summed up the day-to-day difference this way:
“Zintex turned a slippery, outdated tub into a walk-in shower that my husband and I both feel safe using every day. The crew treated our home with respect, finished on time, and left us with a bathroom we’re proud to show our family.”
ZINTEX LLC’s core offering centers on full bathroom remodels, walk-in shower conversions, bathtub replacements, and walk-in tubs designed around accessibility and aging-in-place needs. For a homeowner replacing an outdated or unsafe tub, the pain point is rarely cosmetic first. It is the fear of falling, the loss of independence, or the frustration of a tub that has simply become impossible to use safely. ZINTEX LLC’s ADA-informed walk-in tub and shower solutions are built to address that fear directly, with therapeutic features and zero-threshold entry that let homeowners keep bathing independently inside the home they already live in, rather than relocating or relying on outside caregiving support.
None of that comes from a subcontractor pulled off a job board the week before installation. ZINTEX LLC’s model relies on trained, product-certified installers working from a standardized process, which is part of why the company can promise a single-day installation without treating that promise as a gamble.
Culture and pricing sound unrelated until a homeowner considers who is actually standing in their bathroom holding a tool. A Power100 Company Culture Index survey of the company’s employees, completed by 80% of the company’s workforce, scored ZINTEX LLC 68 out of 75 for overall Company Culture Index, a result the survey classifies as Strong Employee Belief. The survey also scored Employee Performance Reflection at 17 out of 20, with Total Internal Alignment landing at 85 out of 95. Customer experience scored 14.3 out of 15 in the section breakdown, among the strongest of the categories measured.
Zindel has framed the connection between culture and customer outcomes directly.
“Whether you work here for a long period of time or a day or two, we always want you to leave and say: that is an upstanding organization that treated me with the most upright respect.”
A workforce that believes in the organization tends to show up differently on install day than a crew of hourly subcontractors with no stake in the outcome. That difference is part of what a homeowner is paying for, even when it never shows up as its own line item on the invoice.
ZINTEX LLC appeared on the 2025 Qualified Remodeler HIP 200 list, a national ranking that measures scale and performance among home improvement companies, and the company’s 4.9-star rating across 2,639 reviews reflects a volume of completed projects large enough to make that average meaningful rather than a handful of hand-picked testimonials. As a Jacuzzi Bath Remodel dealer and family-owned business founded in 2001, ZINTEX LLC carries the kind of manufacturer relationship that does not get handed to companies without a track record of proper installation and warranty follow-through.
While bath and shower remodeling anchors the brand nationally, ZINTEX LLC’s portfolio extends to window replacement in select markets, full bathroom renovations beyond single-fixture swaps, and accessibility-focused conversions for homeowners planning to age in place. The throughline across every service is the same pricing philosophy: materials and labor covered by warranty terms that hold up years later, not just on install day.
Homeowners weighing whether the investment makes sense do not have to guess. ZINTEX LLC offers consultations that walk through material options, warranty terms, and realistic project timelines before any contract is signed, along with financing options for homeowners who want to spread the cost of a full remodel rather than pay it in a single sum. With 24 years in business, a 4.9-star rating across 2,639 reviews, and lifetime labor coverage on every bathroom it remodels, the company gives homeowners enough on the record to evaluate the price before the crew ever shows up.
