Does your old tub take up way too much room while nobody even uses it for soaking anymore? Changing your heavy porcelain basin into a sleek walk-in bathing space will make your mornings feel much smoother.
Getting rid of that clunky basin provides more floor space for you to move around without bumping your elbows. This upgrade works wonders for small bathrooms found in houses near the 83101 zip code area. You get a modern look that makes the whole room feel bigger and brighter immediately.
Most folks living in Lincoln County find that their bathtubs just collect dust and laundry piles over the years. By installing a custom stall with glass doors, you gain a sense of ease that a deep tub simply cannot provide. You save precious time every single day because you no longer need to navigate over high slippery walls.
Think about the safety side of things because stepping over a tall rim becomes tough as time moves on. A low-threshold entry lets you walk right in without any risk of tripping or losing your balance. This small change adds a high level of coziness to your daily routine while keeping your home value climbing upward.
Starting this project involves removing the heavy unit that currently occupies the most important wall in your bathroom. Our team carefully strips away the old tile and outdated plumbing to ensure the area stays dry and sturdy. You want a solid foundation for your new features, so we check for any hidden moisture damage underneath the floorboards.
Next, we install high-quality waterproofing materials that stop leaks before they even think about starting. This step gives you peace of mind knowing that your walls will stay pristine for many years. You can choose from various materials like subway tiles, stone slabs, or durable acrylic panels that look great.

Adding personal touches makes the room truly yours, from the shower head pressure to the built-in storage niches. You might want a rainfall head that mimics a gentle storm or a handheld sprayer for easier cleaning. Everything we do focuses on making your life simpler and more enjoyable inside your own house.
Picking the right hardware finish will tie the whole design together, whether you prefer brushed nickel or matte black. You get to decide exactly where the shelves go so your soap and shampoo stay right within reach. This level of customization ensures that every inch of the space serves a real purpose for you.
Budgeting for this job requires looking at the quality of materials and the complexity of moving your pipes. Since the median household income in this part of Wyoming sits around sixty-two thousand dollars, you need options that fit your financial plan perfectly. We always provide a free estimate so you know exactly what to expect before any tools hit the floor.
Hidden costs usually happen when people try to do the plumbing work themselves without knowing the local codes. You avoid these headaches by having a seasoned hand do the heavy lifting from start to finish. We handle all the messy demolition and debris removal so you do not have to lift a finger during the process.
Many homeowners worry that removing the tub will hurt their home value if they sell later on. However, buyers in this town usually prefer a functional walk-in stall over an unused tub that takes up space. You are creating a feature that appeals to a wide range of people who value convenience above everything else.
On top of that, you can always include a small bench or seat if you still like to sit down while you wash. This feature offers a level of relaxation that feels just as good as a soak in a tub. You get the best of both worlds without the bulky footprint of a standard basin.
Clearing your bathroom of all personal items helps our team get to work much faster once we arrive. You should also consider where you might need to wash during the few days when the plumbing is disconnected. Planning ahead makes the whole renovation experience much more pleasant for your family members.

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 around Kemmerer 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.
