Tub To Shower Conversion

A bathroom remodel is the chance to make your existing space work for you, improve functionality and it also gives you a chance to introduce new solutions that are better suited for you and your family. If you have decided to renovate your bathroom there certainly are things that you can consider before you replace the tub with a shower.

You must first consider who is using this bathroom? If anyone in the household has mobility issues, replacing the tub with a shower and adding functional safety accessories like grab bars and shower seats are the best solution for easing their daily life. Conversely, bathtubs can be preferred by some parents of young children as managing bathtime for kids in a shower might be a challenge.

One reason you may consider to convert your tub to a walk-in shower is that it is both a practical and stylish way to update your bathroom. Glass doors and seamless acrylic walls can add a fresh look and make a space that has felt drab, seem brand-new again.

Another thing to consider is a tub to shower conversion cost. Bath Fitter costs depend on many factors, including the state of the existing structure, plumbing or other cosmetic upgrades needed, as well as materials and services that are chosen. Fortunately, our end-to-end control of the process from manufacturing to installation means that we can deliver a high-quality product that is affordable and, most importantly, guaranteed for life.

Before you convert your tub to a walk-in shower it also might be important to consider maintenance and cleaning. Cleaning and effort required for the bathtub can often be an issue for people as bending over a bathtub may be more difficult for individuals with limited mobility than wiping down the glass of the shower enclosure.

Both showers and bathtubs have their advantages and disadvantages, so before you get involved in tub-to-shower replacement, it is important to decide which features are the most practical for you and your lifestyle - do you like to take long baths or prefer to take showers? Do you have family members that might have different needs? Will your needs evolve over time?

Ultimately, deciding to convert your tub to a shower is a decision that only you can make. Whether you decide to go with a conversion or would prefer a tub over tub remodel, Bath Fitter has a solution that is custom-made for your needs.
