"Customer service and workers were so nice and patient. Installed a whole new bathtub, shower, and vanity all within 2 days! Even came to ask me about little details that I wouldnâ t have even thought about myself. Will recommend to anyone who needs bathroom work done."
"From the initial sales call to the installation their follow-through was 100% perfect. The 2 men who installed the walk in shower were clean and did a fast/perfect installation. I highly recommend his company."
"I love my new walk-in shower!!!! The team of people who met with me and did my shower installation were very professional and pleasant to work with. I have recommended Imagine Remodel to all of my family members and I would definitely use them again. Plus the price was HALF of what some bigger big box companies were trying to sell me on even though they offered the same product. I'm very impressed!!"
Tub Shower Conversion questions, answered by experts
There are many benefits of converting a tub to a walk-in shower, including:
Increasing home value (if there’s another tub in the house)
Taking up less space and improving bathroom space flow
Making bathrooms look larger
Improving home safety by removing a major trip-and-fall hazard
Easing showering for those who benefit from more accessibility
Saving money on water bills
You can find out what type of shower valve you have by checking the manufacturer’s name and the valve’s serial number or model number. That information should be located on the back of the shower trim. You can use the name and number to do a quick online search to figure out which type of shower valve you have.
You need mortar or a premanufactured pre-slope product under a shower pan liner. Some shower pans are pre-sloped, but they still need a base underneath them to support the pan’s structure and the weight of the person using the shower. Installing a shower without a pre-slope creates a high risk of pooling water, leaks, and the breakdown of the shower’s support structure.
Experts use innovative designs and techniques to maximize your space, creating the illusion of size while enhancing functionality.
In short, it depends. When it comes to accessibility, a roll-in shower is easier to enter than a walk-in bathtub because it doesn’t have the extra step required to access the bathing area. On the downside, walk-in showers can be less safe for seniors who struggle with standing or balancing. Parents of young children may also prefer walk-in bathtubs for their ease of bathing children who don’t yet know how to clean themselves.
