Across Henry County, bathtubs that retired years ago give way to showers built in their own footprint.
Written quote at no cost, one callback, no chasing afterwards.
Maybe you feel like you are stepping over a mountain range every single morning just to get washed. That tall porcelain barrier does not just make your daily routine a workout, it also hogs a ton of precious floor space. We can help you swap that outdated basin for a sleek, modern walk-in washing area today. This simple upgrade instantly transforms your daily routine from a clunky chore into a fast and refreshing experience.
Suddenly your whole room feels twice as big. By removing that bulky, high-sided obstacle, you open up the visual flow of your layout. You also create a much safer environment for everyone in your household. We specialize in making this exact swap quick, clean, and totally hassle-free for local homeowners.
This layout change boosts your home value while giving you back your peace of mind. Think about how nice it will feel to just walk right in without balancing on one wet foot. It is the ultimate blend of safety and modern style. Our team handles the whole process from start to finish so you do not have to lift a finger.
Stepping over a wet, slippery ledge is a recipe for a nasty slip. Which means that replacing that deep basin with a low-profile entry pan drastically cuts down your risk of falling. On top of that, these modern setups are incredibly easy to scrub down. You will spend way less time on your knees fighting moldy grout lines and stubborn soap scum.
Let us look at how these two setups actually compare in your daily life:
| Feature | Your Old High-Walled Basin | Your New Walk-In Setup |
|---|---|---|
| Step-In Height | Usually 15 to 18 inches of awkward climbing | Practically flat or a tiny 3-inch threshold |
| Floor Space | Feels cramped and cuts the room in half | Opens up the floor and looks super spacious |
| Cleaning Effort | Hours of painful scrubbing on your knees | Quick wipe down with non-porous materials |
This handy comparison shows why so many folks are making the switch lately. You get a space that looks like a fancy hotel spa but works like a heavy-duty utility zone. Our team uses premium acrylics and solid surfaces that resist grime naturally. That means your new setup stays sparkling clean with just a quick rinse now and then.
Now think about how much water you actually save with a modern spray setup. Big deep vessels take forever to fill up, which drains your hot water tank and inflates your utility bills. Swapping to a high-efficiency wall spray keeps your water hot and your bills low. It is a win-win for your wallet and your daily comfort level.
We do not believe in boring, cookie-cutter bathroom designs. That is why we offer an amazing variety of custom wall panels, hardware finishes, and built-in accessories. You can choose gorgeous simulated stone patterns that look just like expensive marble without any of the annoying upkeep. This lets you design a space that matches your exact personal taste and style.
Adding a sturdy built-in seat or a handy corner bench is another fantastic option. This feature gives you a comfy spot to relax while you shave your legs or just let the warm water wash over you. We also install heavy-duty grab bars that blend right into the design so they look classy instead of clinical. You get all the safety benefits without sacrificing any of the visual appeal.
Storage is another huge benefit of our custom wall systems. We can build in recessed shelving nooks to hold all your shampoos, conditioners, and body washes. No more messy plastic caddies hanging from your showerhead or bottles cluttering up the floor. Everything stays organized, clean, and right at your fingertips whenever you need it.
You might worry that a major bathroom renovation will leave you without a washroom for weeks on end. Fortunately, our experienced crew has this down to a science. We take incredibly precise measurements of your existing space before we ever order a single part. This careful planning allows us to complete most of our installations in just a few short days.
We start by carefully removing your old cast iron or steel basin without damaging your surrounding walls. Next, we inspect the subfloor and the drain pipes to make sure everything is rock solid underneath. If we find any hidden water damage or old rotted wood, we fix it right then and there. You can rest easy knowing your new plumbing foundation is completely sound.
After the prep work is done, we install your new custom pan and waterproof wall panels. We seal every single joint with industrial-grade, mold-resistant silicone to guarantee a lifetime of leak-free performance. Finally, we mount your chosen hardware and clean up our workspace so thoroughly you won't even know we were there. You just get to jump in and enjoy your gorgeous new space immediately.

Count the baths your household actually ran last year. In most homes we visit, the honest number is somewhere between zero and three, and yet every single morning somebody swings a leg over fifteen inches of porcelain rim to stand up and shower inside a fixture built for lying down. The tub charges rent daily and works a few evenings a year.
Nothing dramatic follows from that. Nobody is in danger because a bathtub exists, and if long soaks are part of your week, keep the tub and enjoy it with our blessing. The case for the conversion is plainer: when the tub has become a shower tray with high sides, you are paying, in caution and in cleaning, for a feature you retired years ago.
The swap itself is smaller than most people picture. The supply lines, the drain and the alcove walls are already exactly where a shower wants them, which is why this is a job measured in days. We are not building a new bathroom; we are letting the one you have stop pretending it still gives baths.
The same alcove, photographed the way the week actually unfolds. Weather never delays this one; it all happens indoors.
Floors along the hallway get covered, the water goes off for a few hours, and the bathtub is cut free and carried out, tile flange and all. With the alcove stripped, the plumber moves the drain to where the new pan wants it and sets the new valve at shower height. By supper the room is bare, clean and ready.
The base arrives first: an acrylic pan set dead level on a mortar bed, or a sloped, waterproofed floor when the plan says curbless. Then the walls close in, either grout-free panels bonded in a single afternoon or backer board ready for tile. Everything from here on is watertight before it is pretty.
The glass panel or door is drilled, hung and plumbed straight, the trim goes on, and the silicone lines are drawn last. Silicone wants a day to cure, so the first shower usually happens the following morning, which is exactly how we schedule the walkthrough.
Both are real showers in the same alcove. The difference is the entry, and what has to happen under it.
| What you weigh | Low curb | Curbless |
|---|---|---|
| What stands at the entry | A tidy threshold about 3 to 4 inches tall | Nothing. The bathroom floor rolls straight into the shower |
| Cost, installed | The friendlier bracket, most jobs land here | Roughly a third to a half more, the floor is rebuilt |
| What the crew rebuilds | The alcove only; the bathroom floor stays shut | Part of the bathroom floor, sloped and waterproofed |
| Water containment | The curb and glass do the holding | The slope and a linear drain do the holding |
| Suits best | Straight swaps on a budget and upstairs bathrooms | Wheels, walkers, and anyone planning to stay put for decades |
Undecided is a fine answer on the form. The site visit settles it with a tape measure, not a sales pitch.
Removal
Cut free, hauled out and off to recycling, with floors and doorways shielded on the way. The loudest hour of the conversion, and it wraps before most jobs have begun.
Plumbing
Tub drains sit at one end; showers drain where the pan says. We move what needs moving and swap the old valve for a pressure-balanced one.
The base
A level acrylic pan for most swaps, a mortar-built sloped floor for curbless plans. Either way it is tested with water before anything covers it.
The walls
Grout-free panels go up in an afternoon and wipe clean forever. Tile takes longer, costs more, and looks like whatever you can imagine.
The glass
A fixed panel keeps things open and easy to clean; a hinged door closes the warmth in. Both are tempered, both are set dead straight.
The finish
Shelving, the hand shower, clean caulk lines and a walkthrough. We leave the cure time in writing so the first shower is not a gamble.
| The job | Usual range | Inside the number |
|---|---|---|
| Standard tub-to-shower conversion | $3,100 - $5,600 | Tub out, low curb pan, wall panels, new valve, glass panel. |
| Curbless conversion | $4,900 - $8,800 | The floor is rebuilt flush and sloped to a linear drain. |
| Glass: fixed panel or hinged door | $450 - $1,400 | A single panel sits at the low end, a framed door at the top. |
| Walls: PVC panels or tile | $1,100 - $3,900 | Panels finish in a day; tile adds days and takes any look you want. |
| Tear-out only | $450 - $950 | The tub gone and the alcove left clean for another trade. |
| Small job minimum | around $2,400 | Even the simplest swap books a licensed plumber and a full crew. |
Wall condition, drain position and the glass you choose move every line. The visit pins the figure down, and the figure then holds.
A bathtub drains at one end through its own trap; most showers want the drain nearer the middle, or along one edge when the plan is curbless. Sometimes the existing trap is close enough to reuse and sometimes it has to travel a foot or two, which means opening a strip of floor. We can usually tell which from the basement or the crawl space during the visit, and the paperwork you sign already names which one you are getting.
Houses older than the seventies like to add a surprise: galvanized supply lines rusted nearly shut, a cast iron trap that crumbles at a touch, or framing that got damp decades ago and kept it quiet. None of it is rare and none of it is ruinous, but it is your call, not ours. When something like that turns up, work pauses, you get photographs and a price for the fix, and nothing is billed until you have said yes to it. A conversion should never be the job where the invoice writes itself.
QIs losing the only bathtub a resale mistake?
AAgents repeat one rule: a family house shows better with a tub somewhere in it. If this is your only tub and small children are in your plans, we put that on the table during the visit and you decide with open eyes. If another bathroom keeps its tub, or the buyers you expect are shower people, the argument evaporates.
QHow long do we go without washing?
AThe toilet and sink stay usable every evening, and the water is only off for stretches on day one. The shower itself is ready once the silicone cures, so figure on missing roughly three days of showers at home. Plenty of clients time the job before a weekend away.
QDoes all the old tile come off the walls?
AOn the alcove walls, yes, because the new waterproofing needs to start from the studs, not from forty-year-old grout. Tile outside the alcove stays put, and we cut a clean line where the two meet.
QCan the new shower use the tub drain?
AThe pipe itself is nearly always reusable; the position is the question. A low curb pan can often sit its drain within reach of the old trap. Curbless floors want a relocated or linear drain, and that difference is priced before demo, never discovered after.
QDo we need a permit for the swap?
AA like-for-like fixture swap usually rides on a simple plumbing permit, and moving the drain can add an inspection. We file whatever your jurisdiction wants and fold the cost into the written price.
QWhat if there is rot behind the tub?
AIt happens, mostly around the old tile flange. You get photographs the hour we find it, a firm price for the repair, and the choice to proceed or pause. The framing fix is usually a morning, not a remodel.
