If you want to swap that old, dusty basin you never use for a spacious walk-in stall, you are in the right place. Our team helps you transform your daily wash routine into a quick, refreshing experience. You deserve a modern setup that actually fits your lifestyle instead of wasting space.
To make things even better, we offer a completely free estimate right at your home. This means you get precise pricing without any pressure or hidden fees. Since you probably want to save time and water, making this smart switch brings immediate benefits to your daily routine.
Actually, nobody really has time for long baths anymore in our busy world. Most people just want to jump in, get clean, and get on with their day. By choosing a modern walk-in enclosure, you instantly open up your layout and make the room feel twice as big.
Now, think about how much easier it is to clean a flat pan compared to scrubbing grime off those high, curved walls. You will save your back from those painful bending angles every single weekend. Which means you get to spend your Saturday doing things you actually enjoy.
On top of that, stepping over a high ledger can be downright dangerous when your feet are wet. Removing that obstacle reduces the risk of slips and falls for everyone in your home. This gives you total peace of mind every time you wash up.
| Current Setup | New Upgrade | Main Benefit |
|---|---|---|
| High-sided cast iron tub | Low-profile slip-resistant pan | Super easy entry and safety |
| Hard-to-reach plumbing faucet | Handheld wand with slide bar | Targeted rinsing and simple cleaning |
| Moldy shower curtain | Seamless glass door panel | Bright space with zero mildew build-up |
First, we carefully extract your old cast iron or acrylic basin without ruining the surrounding drywall. Our crew takes special care of your floors during this messy demolition phase. This lets us inspect the underlying wood structure for any hidden water damage or rot.
After we ensure your subfloor is dry and strong, we install a modern acrylic base pan. This heavy-duty foundation directs water straight down the drain without any pooling issues. Then we apply high-grade waterproof barriers to keep your walls bone dry for decades.
Eventually, we customize your wall surrounds with beautiful, grout-free panels that mimic natural stone. You get the gorgeous look of marble without the nightmare of scrubbing dirty grout lines with a toothbrush. Your neighbors will surely notice the incredible difference.
Living in this beautiful part of the Lone Star State means dealing with hard water that leaves nasty mineral deposits. Because we know the local water quality so well, we recommend non-porous surfaces that resist staining. Our materials stand up to the tough municipal supply found across the local region.
Whether you live near the historic courthouse or out in the quiet rural areas, we bring our mobile showroom to your driveway. We proudly serve the entire local territory, which covers about 1,138 square miles of rolling hills and pecan orchards. Our team knows every backroad in this friendly county of about 5,730 residents.
If you reside in ZIP codes like 76877 or 76825, you probably know how hard it is to find reliable local contractors. We make sure to arrive on time and treat your home with absolute respect. Our solid reputation relies on honest communication and doing the job right the first time.
When you decide to update your bath space, you also boost your overall property value. Buyers today actively look for modern, accessible wash areas rather than outdated soaking basins. This makes your home much more attractive on the local real estate market if you ever decide to sell.
To customize your new stall, we can add a sturdy built-in bench or corner shelves for your shampoos. These handy additions keep your soaps organized and off the floor. You will love having everything at arm's level without bending down.
Besides the convenience, we also offer beautiful sliding glass doors that glide open with just one finger. This eliminates the need for sticky plastic curtains that always cling to your legs. Your entire washroom will feel brighter and much more inviting.
If you plan on staying in your home for years to come, planning ahead is a very smart move. Installing heavy-duty grab bars provides excellent stability whenever you feel a bit off-balance. These bars blend beautifully into the design without looking like a sterile hospital room.
Moreover, a low threshold entry point makes life incredibly simple if your mobility ever changes. You can easily roll or step right in without any awkward lifting. This ensures you maintain your independence and stay in your beloved home much longer.

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.
