Written quote at no cost, one callback, no chasing afterwards.
Maybe you feel tired of stepping over that high, slippery ledge every single morning just to wash off. If you face this daily struggle, you are definitely not alone because many homeowners want to swap their old, deep basins for a modern, walk-in option. Fortunately, our team can help you transform that outdated bathroom layout into a spacious oasis with a fast and painless upgrade.
By making this simple switch, you instantly create a safer environment that feels much bigger and looks incredibly sleek. Furthermore, our skilled local crew specializes in tearing out those dusty, unused deep tubs and replacing them with beautiful, low-profile pans. You deserve a setup that fits your actual lifestyle, which is why we always offer a completely free estimate right at your doorstep.
Because we live and work in this beautiful mountainous region of Wyoming, we know exactly what local homes need to stay functional during freezing winters. Actually, we proudly serve the entire area, including scenic spots near Jackson and all the surrounding valley communities under the shadow of the Grand Tetons. If you want to breathe new life into your home, just reach out to us for a friendly, no-pressure assessment of your space.
When you stop to think about it, how often do you actually take a full bath these days? Most busy folks just want a quick, hot spray without the hassle of cleaning a giant, unused basin that collects dust and soap scum. Consequently, choosing to remodel this area gives you a massive boost in daily convenience while making your entire bathroom feel twice as large.
This smart change also keeps you safe from nasty slips and falls, which frequently happen when you try to balance on one wet foot. Indeed, installing a low-threshold entryway provides a seamless transition that anyone in your family can use without fear. On top of that, we use high-quality, non-porous materials that resist mold and mildew, so you will spend way less time scrubbing on your hands and knees.
To help you weigh your options, we put together a simple comparison table highlighting the massive benefits of making the switch:
| Feature analyzed | Your Old Deep Basin | Our Modern Walk-In Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Safety Level | High risk of slipping while stepping over the tall edge | Very low step-in height with slip-resistant flooring |
| Maintenance Needs | Hard to reach corners and constant grout scrubbing | Wipe-clean acrylic walls that resist mold growth |
| Visual Appeal | Bulky look that eats up precious floor space | Sleek, open design that makes the room look huge |
Naturally, every single home has different structural needs, which is why we never use a one-size-fits-all approach. For instance, we carefully measure your existing alcove to ensure the new base fits perfectly without requiring expensive plumbing relocation. This means you get a gorgeous, customized upgrade without the massive headache of a full-scale, months-long demolition project.
First, we sit down with you to discuss your vision and look at different wall patterns and hardware finishes. After you pick your favorite look, our professional installers get to work protecting your floors before we carefully remove the old porcelain or cast-iron fixture. Surprisingly, we often complete the physical swap in just a couple of days, meaning your life won't be turned upside down.
Next, we inspect the underlying wood and pipes to make sure there is absolutely no hidden water damage or rot behind the drywall. If we find any soft spots, we repair them immediately so your new setup stands on a rock-solid foundation. Afterward, we install the heavy-duty pan and secure the beautiful, waterproof wall panels to create a tight seal that keeps moisture out of your walls.
Finally, we mount your chosen fixtures, including adjustable showerheads, sturdy grab bars, and maybe even a comfortable built-in bench for ultimate relaxation. Once we finish the clean-up, we walk you through the completed project to ensure you love every single detail. This attention to detail guarantees that your new space offers incredible peace of mind and cozy satisfaction for decades to come.
Since everyone has unique tastes, we offer a wide variety of wall designs that mimic high-end stone, classic subway tile, or modern smooth marble. Because these panels lack traditional grout lines, you get the gorgeous look of luxury stone without any of the annoying maintenance. This lets you enjoy a beautiful bathroom that looks brand new every single day with just a quick wipe down.
To make the space even more functional, you can add recessed shelving caddies to hold all your favorite shampoos and body washes. Which means you can finally throw away those rusty, hanging wire baskets that always slide off the pipe and spill your bottles. By customizing these little details, you create a personalized zone that works perfectly for your morning routine.
As we get older, our joints sometimes do not cooperate as well as they used to, making high steps a real physical challenge. By lowering the entry barrier to just a few inches, you protect your independence and make daily hygiene completely stress-free. Additionally, we can install secure, color-matched grab bars that blend beautifully with your hardware rather than looking like a cold hospital room.
If you want extra reassurance, we also offer fold-up seating options that provide a stable place to rest while you wash. This thoughtful addition ensures that everyone from young kids to grandparents can use the space safely and comfortably. Ultimately, investing in these protective measures now saves you from costly accidents down the road.
Living in Teton County, Wyoming, means dealing with unique seasonal challenges, from dry summer heat to heavy winter snowpacks.

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.
