"Nick was the best! Very friendly and replaced the overflow and Ptrap for the bathtub under the house since we had a pretty big leak. It was a great job, quick and very reasonably priced. When I thought my cat went under the house, Nick even came back to check for me! He was extremely helpful and I would definitely recommend him!"

"Huft was able to schedule me within a week (it was a busy time for everyone). The technician came when scheduled and replaced a broken part quickly. I felt that the fee was fair and there was no attempt to sell me additional services. I really appreciated the professionalism of the technician."

"I called Top Tier Plumbing when I needed plumbing done in my Master Bathroom. Taylor, the owner came and was extremely professional and knowledgeable. He changed a shower valve for me, installed a new toilet, and changed out 2 faucets. The work was completed very quickly, but he didn't skip any steps, the work was Top Tier lol. I highly recommend Tayler and Top Tier for any plumbing projects you might have."

Bathtub Replacement questions, answered by experts

The average cost to convert a tub to a shower is around $3,000, but prices can range from $1,000 to as high as $15,000. A more typical range is between $1,200 and $8,000. The final cost depends on several factors, including the amount of plumbing work required, the size of the shower, and the type of materials and fixtures chosen. A prefabricated shower stall is a more budget-friendly option, while a custom shower with features like luxury tiles, unique tiling, smart technology, or accessibility features will be at the higher end of the cost spectrum.

Start by gutting the old fixtures and features that need to be removed, such as the tile, vanity, and flooring. You may benefit by removing the toilet, even if you intend to use the same one. Next, install the new shower or tub, followed by the flooring, and then the drywall, which you should then paint. After that, install your new cabinets, vanity, countertop, sink, and faucet, in that order. Replace your light fixture next. Lastly, reconnect the toilet.

Installing a drop-in tub yourself is possible, especially if you’re replacing your existing tub with a new one of the same size. If you’re replacing a different type of tub, you’ll need to build the structure to hold the new drop-in tub and finish the exposed sides. The structure must be sturdy enough to hold the tub when it’s filled with water, and you’ll need to seal it. If any plumbing work is required, it’s best to call a licensed plumber who installs bathtubs.

The diverter valve in your bathtub is responsible for diverting water between your tub spout and your shower head. If water comes out of both at the same time, you have a faulty diverter valve. You can have a plumber replace this for you, or you can replace it yourself if you have some experience working with plumbing fixtures.

Of the two most common and affordable bathtub materials, acrylic is notably better. Though fiberglass is cheaper, it is also more prone to scratching, chipping, fading, and cracking. Acrylic holds up better to wear and tear, cleaning, and sun exposure; the slight cost increase is usually worth the increased longevity.
