You probably feel tired of stepping over that high, slippery wall every single morning just to wash up. It feels like a daily hurdle course in your own home, which is why swapping that old basin for a modern, walk-in option makes so much sense. By making this smart change, you instantly open up your room and create a much safer environment for everyone in the household.
When you choose to upgrade, you get rid of outdated fixtures that gather grime in hard-to-reach corners. This means you will spend way less time scrubbing on your hands and knees. Instead, you get a clean, open area that fits your daily routine perfectly without any of the hassle.
We want to help you make this transition as smooth as possible by offering a completely free on-site estimate. Our friendly local team will visit your home, look at your current layout, and give you a detailed plan without any pressure. You can easily request your zero-cost quote today to start planning your dream setup.
Think about how much space that old, dusty cast-iron or acrylic beast actually takes up in your small room. By removing it, you unlock precious square footage that makes the entire area feel much larger and more breathable. This simple update brings a sense of modern roominess and cozy convenience that your old setup simply could not provide.
Safety is another huge benefit that you cannot afford to ignore as the years roll by. Slipping on wet porcelain is a real danger, but a low-threshold entry option keeps your feet firmly on the ground. This peace of mind is priceless, especially if you plan on staying in your home for a long time.
To help you compare your options, we put together a simple table showing how these two setups stack up against each other:
| Feature | Old Traditional Basin | Modern Low-Step Entry |
|---|---|---|
| Entry Height | Usually 14 to 18 inches high | Only 3 to 5 inches high |
| Cleaning Effort | High, lots of deep bending | Low, simple wipe-down walls |
| Safety Level | Risky, easy to lose balance | Very safe, non-slip surfaces |
Now, you can clearly see how making this upgrade saves you time, effort, and potential physical strain. Our team specializes in these quick, durable transformations that fit your lifestyle. We invite you to reach out for a free quote so we can show you what is possible in your home.
Perhaps you are wondering about the mess and the noise that comes with a major home improvement project. Our crew works hard to keep the dust contained and finishes most jobs much faster than you would expect. We take care of the heavy lifting, from hauling away the heavy old cast iron to sealing the new walls.
During the process, we inspect the underlying wooden structure for any hidden water damage or mold that might have gathered over the decades. Fixing these hidden issues early protects your home from rot and expensive future repairs. This thorough approach ensures your new setup stays solid and beautiful for many years to come.
Once we prep the subfloor, we install high-quality, water-resistant backer boards and your choice of beautiful wall panels or custom tile. This gives you a highly durable surface that resists mildew and water leaks. To get a clear picture of how this fits your budget, ask us for a free estimate today.
You can choose from a wide variety of materials like durable acrylic sheets, modern solid surfaces, or classic ceramic tile. Acrylic is incredibly popular because it has no grout lines, which means you never have to scrub moldy cracks again. This saves you hours of tedious chore time every single month.
On the other hand, tile offers a timeless look that lets you customize the colors and patterns to match your personal style. Whichever material you prefer, we make sure it is sealed perfectly to keep moisture out of your walls. Let us discuss these options at your home during a free consultation visit.
Adding a few smart accessories can turn a simple wash area into a highly functional, secure, and relaxing space. Installing solid grab bars gives you extra leverage and balance when you are soapy and wet. These bars do not have to look institutional anymore, as they come in gorgeous finishes like brushed bronze and matte black.
You might also want to include a comfortable built-in bench or a fold-down seat for a more relaxed washing experience. This lets you sit back and enjoy the warm water without any fatigue. We can easily customize these features to fit your exact physical needs and preferences.

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 Myton 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.
