Maybe you are tired of tripping over that high porcelain ledge every single morning. That heavy old basin takes up so much space in your bathroom and you probably cannot remember the last time you actually took a soak. By swapping that outdated basin for a sleek and open walk-in stall, you instantly create a safer and much more spacious bathroom.
This smart remodel makes your daily routine feel like a breeze. Our local team visits your home to look at your setup and we give you a detailed free estimate on the spot. If you live in the capital of the Chickasaw Nation, you know how important it is to have a home that works for your lifestyle.
Imagine stepping into a bright, airy space instead of climbing into a slippery, deep well. This simple change completely upgrades your daily routine. Let us help you make your bathroom safer and much more enjoyable today.
Honestly, those old-fashioned deep basins are real space hogs. Most of them collect dust, laundry, or random toiletries because nobody has the time for a long soak anymore. When you replace that bulky setup with a modern, low-profile basin, you reclaim valuable square footage in a tight room.
Besides saving precious space, safety is a massive factor for many homeowners. Slipping on wet porcelain is a major hazard, especially as we get a little older or look after family members. A flat, textured floor with a very low threshold keeps everyone in the house safe and independent.
On top of that, cleaning a flat wall system is infinitely easier than scrubbing nasty grout lines on your hands and knees. Modern non-porous acrylic surrounds resist mold and mildew effortlessly. You will spend less time scrubbing with harsh chemicals and more time enjoying your beautiful home.
Let us talk about the money part because we know every dollar counts. In Johnston County, where the median household income sits around $28,287, making smart investments in your property is incredibly important. You want to make sure every dollar you spend actually boosts your home value and improves your daily life.
Investing in this specific type of bathroom remodel offers a fantastic return on investment. Buyers love modern, accessible bathrooms, which means your home becomes much more attractive if you ever decide to sell. We keep our prices competitive so you do not have to break the bank to get the high-quality upgrade you deserve.
To help you plan, we put together a quick comparison table showing how these two bathroom setups stack up against each other.
| Feature | Old High-Walled Basin | Modern Walk-In Stall |
|---|---|---|
| Required Space | Very bulky and restrictive | Open and customizable |
| Safety Level | High tripping hazard | Low-threshold and secure |
| Maintenance | Hard to scrub and clean | Wipe-and-go acrylic walls |
| Water Usage | High volume per soak | Efficient and fast draining |
First, we start with a friendly in-home visit to chat about your ideas. We measure your existing space, check out the plumbing, and help you choose the best colors and fixtures for your budget. This initial consultation is completely complimentary, meaning you get a detailed quote without spending a single dime.
Next comes the demo day, which we handle with the utmost respect for your home. We carefully remove the old cast iron or fiberglass structure without damaging your surrounding walls or floors. Our crew cleans up every bit of debris so you do not have to worry about a mess.
Then, we install the new leak-proof pan and connect it to your existing drain system. We seal everything tight using top-grade plumbing materials to prevent any future water damage behind your walls. Finally, we install your gorgeous new wall panels, sturdy grab bars, and modern fixtures.
Now, you get to have some fun choosing the look of your new space. You can go for a clean, modern white look or choose panels that look exactly like expensive stone or subway tile. Since there are no real grout lines, you get the beautiful look of tile without any of the high-maintenance scrubbing.
We also offer a variety of helpful accessories to make your daily routine even better. You can add built-in corner shelves for your shampoos, a comfortable fold-down seat, or stylish matte black hardware. These small details let you customize the space to match your exact needs and taste.

Because we serve the entire 73460 ZIP code, our trucks are always nearby and fully stocked with quality materials. We do not believe in high-pressure sales tactics or hidden fees. Our goal is simply to give you a honest, fair price and outstanding craftsmanship that lasts for decades.
Choosing a local contractor means you get personalized service and quick response times. We know the local building codes inside and out, which ensures your project is completely safe and fully compliant. You can rest easy knowing your home is in caring, experienced hands.
Trying to tackle this kind of plumbing project by yourself can quickly turn into a massive headache. Water damage is incredibly expensive to fix, and a single minor leak behind a wall can rot your subfloor over time. Our professional crew ensures every single connection is perfectly tight and fully water-tested before we pack up.
We also make sure the subfloor beneath your new pan is completely level and strong. Older homes often have slightly sloped floors, which requires careful preparation before placing the new base. We handle all these hidden challenges so you do not have to worry about a thing.
Are you ready to finally transform your cramped, outdated bathroom into a spacious oasis? We make the entire process incredibly simple, starting with a completely free, no-obligation estimate right in your home. We sit down with you, look at your space, and give you a clear price that fits your budget.

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 Tishomingo 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.
