"Bernard and Jonah did a excellent job on taking out the tub and installing the shower would recommend them to all my friends and family they were very friendly and answered all my questions"
"Gorgeous work!! Friendly and confident workers. We are SUPER happy with our new bathtub and shower wall. We loved our sales rep, and the installer was great too. They were both very understanding of our hectic home with three kiddos ?? we only had a shower stall in our main bathroom before the install, so we are really enjoying the deep soaker bathtub with kids! A lot less splashing on the floor. So thankful for all of the hard work put into this for us!!"
""We couldn?t be more pleased with the shower replacement. From start to finish, the crew was professional, friendly, and respectful of our home. They kept the work area neat every day and delivered a beautiful, high-quality bathroom. A+ service all the way!""
"I chose Secure Bathing to do two things: 1) install a chair lift; 2) replace my old shower with one that would be easily accessible for someone with mobility issues. This company is very easy to deal with, and their prices beat other estimates by quite a bit. Their installation team is THE BEST !!! I can't say enough good about them. They were professional, friendly, respectful, accommodating, and were very careful to clean everything up after they finished the jobs. The completed bathroom project is amazing, and turned out better than I expected. I would hire them again in a heartbeat. Thank you!"

"In preparation for winter, I contracted for a roof inspection to be performed. Jason Lance nailed down shingles that were lifted up by the wind, and secured the nail heads with caulk. He also caulked around exhaust pipes on the roof. Furthermore, he reinstalled tw pieces of siding that had fallen off. He also caulked around the sump pump exhaust. Jason did provide before and after pictures of his work. In providing a cost estimate for bathroom exhaust fans replacement, he demonstrated his knowledge in home ventillation systems, due to his previous experience in home construction."
"I had a total bathroom remodel. The bathroom was gutted, new floors, bathtub and shower, cabinets, toilet, fixtures. They helped me pick everything out, and the job was completed in the time frame that was given me. The price that was quoted to me initially was also the same amount that I had to pay. The workers were punctual, friendly, experienced, and neat. I love my new bathroom and would recommend this company to my friends. I also had a kitchen remodel that turned out beautiful with this same company before my bathroom."

Bathtub Replacement questions, answered by experts
Yes, $5,000 is a healthy budget for a DIY bathroom renovation. It can go a long way in making the space more accessible and stylishly spa-like. Providing you stick to modest materials and don’t make any major plumbing or structural changes, you can upgrade fixtures, retile, and add some stylish bathroom accessories and savvy storage solutions to maximize the space.
It is possible to install a two-in-one unit that has both a shower and a walk-in tub so you can still have both in smaller bathrooms or provide a showerhead for those in the household who prefer taking showers. You’ll hear these referred to as walk-in tub and shower combo units. Keep in mind that these combo units can take up more space than a standard shower or tub, and you’ll most likely need to hire a pro to install one.
Persistent leaks, outdated styles, or surface damage are indicators for a replacement.
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.
