First of all, safety is the biggest reason to make this change. Standard basins feature tall rims that require a big, awkward step to get inside. When you replace that barrier with a low-threshold entry, you eliminate a major tripping hazard. This simple modification keeps you independent in your own home for many years to come.
Actually, the visual transformation will absolutely blow you away. Removing that old, heavy tub structure makes your entire room look twice as large. This change creates a clean, spa-like atmosphere that makes your morning routine feel like a vacation. On top of that, your new wall panels will be incredibly easy to wipe down.
Additionally, this upgrade adds serious value to your property. Most modern home buyers actively look for accessible, walk-in stalls rather than deep basins they will never use. Which means you are investing in your future equity while enjoying a much better daily wash. Our team makes the entire transition quick, affordable, and completely stress-free.
To give you a better idea of how these two setups compare, we created a handy table below:
| Feature | Old High-Walled Basin | Modern Walk-In Setup |
|---|---|---|
| Step-In Height | Usually 14 to 18 inches high | Only 1 to 3 inches high |
| Cleaning Effort | Requires scrubbing deep grime on your knees | Simple wipe-down with non-abrasive cleaner |
| Space Utilization | Bulky and crowds small rooms | Opens up floor space and looks airy |
To begin, our skilled team visits your house to take precise measurements of your existing layout. We discuss your favorite style choices, color schemes, and safety accessories like grab bars or built-in benches. Because we plan everything down to the millimeter, we avoid any unexpected surprises during the actual physical labor.
Next, we carefully remove your old cast iron or acrylic basin without damaging the surrounding walls or flooring. Our crew inspects the exposed subfloor and plumbing pipes to ensure there is no hidden water damage or mold. If we find any rot, we repair it immediately so your new installation sits on a rock-solid foundation.
After that, we install the durable new floor base and hook up the drains. We then mount the gorgeous, moisture-resistant wall surrounds and seal every single joint with premium, mold-resistant silicone. Finally, we install your brand-new showerhead, glass doors, and any custom shelving you requested. The result is a sparkling, watertight oasis that you will love showing off to guests.
Naturally, you want your updated room to reflect your personal style. We offer a wide variety of wall patterns, including realistic faux stone, classic subway tile, and modern solid colors. This lets you achieve the look of expensive masonry without the nightmare of scrubbing grout lines every single weekend.
On top of that, we can add incredible utility features to maximize your physical wellness. For example, installing a sturdy, fold-down bench allows you to sit comfortably while you wash your hair. Adding a handheld wand with adjustable spray patterns gives you total control over your washing experience. These small details provide unmatched convenience and coziness during your private time.
Moreover, we focus heavily on high-quality hardware that stands the test of time. Our heavy-duty glass doors glide smoothly on their tracks without wobbling or leaking water onto your floor. We only use commercial-grade fixtures that resist tarnishing, rusting, and mineral buildup. You deserve a setup that functions flawlessly day in and day out.
Budgeting for home improvements can feel a bit scary, especially with the rising cost of living. In our beloved town of Oilton, Oklahoma, where the median household income sits around $33,438, we know that every single dollar counts. That is why we work hard to keep our pricing fair, transparent, and highly competitive.
Unlike massive national corporations, we do not believe in pushy sales tactics or hidden fees. We provide a highly detailed, itemized estimate upfront so you know exactly where your hard-earned money is going. This honest approach has made us a trusted favorite across the entire 74052 ZIP code area.
Ultimately, doing this job right the first time saves you thousands of dollars in potential water damage repairs down the road. A leaky DIY project or a cheap, poorly installed unit will eventually rot your joists and ruin your drywall. By trusting our experienced local professionals, you get peace of mind and a gorgeous result that lasts for decades.
How long does the actual installation take from start to finish? In most cases, our skilled installers can complete the entire physical transition in just one to two days. This rapid turnaround time means you will not have to deal with messy construction crews invading your home for weeks on end.
Can we install these modern walk-in units in small bathrooms? Absolutely, because these setups actually save space and make tight layouts feel much more open. We customize the base pans to fit your exact footprint, ensuring a perfect fit even in cozy historic homes.
What kind of maintenance is required to keep the new space clean? You will be thrilled to know that our non-porous acrylic walls do not harbor mold, mildew, or soap scum. All you need is a quick spray of mild cleaner and a squeegee wipe to keep everything looking brand new.
Now is the perfect time to stop struggling with an old, unsafe, and ugly bathing setup. You deserve a beautiful, modern space that keeps you safe and makes your home feel like a luxurious retreat. Our friendly crew is ready to bring your vision to life with minimal disruption to your daily routine.

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 Oilton 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.
