Home / Bathroom / Tub-to-Shower

Tub-to-shower conversion, step in, not over

Replace an old bathtub with a walk-in shower that is easier to use, easier to clean and makes the room feel bigger.

Conversions

More space, easier access

Most tubs sit in a standard alcove, which makes a great walk-in shower. We remove the tub, adjust the drain and valve, waterproof and tile the new shower.

A low curb or curbless entry makes it easier for everyone, including older family members.
