Across Montague 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.
You probably stare at that high-walled tub every morning and wish for something more useful. Changing your outdated bathing setup into a modern walk-in station makes your daily routine safer and way more enjoyable.
Most folks living around the northern parts of the Lone Star State realize that bulky tubs take up too much room. Removing that heavy porcelain beast frees up floor space that makes the whole area feel bigger. Plus, you get a clean look that brings a sense of ease to your morning routine. It really changes the vibe of your entire house.
Often, people find that stepping over a tall rim becomes a huge chore as time goes on. Replacing that high barrier with a low-profile entrance stops you from tripping when you are just trying to get clean. This single change gives you lasting peace of mind every time you wash. You deserve a space that keeps you steady on your feet.
Living in a place like Montague County, Texas, means you appreciate the wide-open spaces and the quiet life. Even though the area has a spread-out population and varied zip codes like 76230 or 76265, your home remains your personal castle. Investing in your bathroom is a smart way to keep that castle looking sharp for years. It adds real utility that you can actually feel.
Beyond the practical perks, updating your wet area adds serious appeal if you ever decide to sell. Buyers look for modern updates that save them from doing the heavy lifting themselves. A sleek and open design shows that you take good care of your property. It turns a boring room into a highlight of your home tour.
Starting this project might feel like a big mountain to climb, but the right help makes it simple. First, we chat about what you want your new space to look like. You get to choose the wall patterns, the faucet styles, and even the type of storage you need. This lets you build a custom nook that fits your exact taste.
Next, the old unit comes out so we can check the plumbing behind the walls. We look for any hidden surprises that could cause trouble later on. Addressing these things now saves you from massive headaches once the new walls go up. Everything gets done right the first time because we know you value solid work.
Choosing the right surface for your new unit matters more than you might think. You want something that resists mold and keeps its shine without needing heavy scrubbing. High-quality acrylics or solid surface materials offer a sense of luxury that stays beautiful for a long time. They feel warm to the touch and hold up against soap scum perfectly.
Once you pick your materials, we install the base and the walls with precision. We seal every edge so that water stays exactly where it belongs. This prevents leaks that could damage your flooring over the coming years. You gain a dry and secure area that works flawlessly every single day.
Adding features like grab bars or built-in seats makes your experience much better. These additions might seem small, but they increase the utility of the space by a lot. Imagine sitting down while you rinse off after a long day of work. It turns a quick wash into a moment of pure relief.
On top of that, you can add recessed shelves to hold your soap and shampoo. No more bottles cluttering up the floor or sitting on the rim of a tub. Everything stays organized and within reach while you enjoy your morning rinse. This creates a tidy environment that makes you feel ready to tackle the day ahead.
People often worry about the cost of big renovations, but we keep things honest. We provide a free estimate so you know exactly what to expect before anyone picks up a tool. There are no hidden fees or weird surprises waiting for you at the end of the job. You get a clear plan that fits your wallet.

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.
