"Brett just finished our tub to walk in shower conversion and we are thrilled. The old tub and enclosure was not senior friendly and now we have a new, beautiful, safe, walk in shower. Our installer, Brett, was fantastic.
He checked with us every step of the way, understood what we wanted and was very respectful of our home. Brett, William, Rick and everyone at Bath Expo have been wonderful to work with."
"I purchased a home with an outdated bathroom. It had an odd shaped tub/shower combo that was pink. I wanted to convert to walk in shower. I got four in house estimates from companies advertising on Google. But I called J R Bath because they were at a home show near my house. Jeremy came and gave me great ideas and a fair price. He advised that my shower may not be installed until Sept. It is August and my new shower is done! I live it. Evan did total job himself. Total removal of old tub into perfect shower in less than three days. He did amazing job. Very satisfied with my experience."
"Bath Fitters end product was fine...but had to comeback for a full second day to redo shower walls not installed quite right. No extra charge but took a day out of my life. I am pleased with the final result"

"Our installer was on the job at the time we agreed upon. He was very personable, knowledgeable, and did a great job. Our tub to walk in shower conversion has made life much easier and safer for my husband. We love it!"
"This experienced father-and-son duo completed a nearly complete bathroom remodel and did a wonderful job. The project was a challenge, requiring the removal and replacement of the drywall on three walls before installation of a new tub and surround, toilet, floor covering, and baseboards while working around the existing vanity. The investment was very reasonable, and they were a pleasure to have in my home. Highly recommend."
"Chris with Friesen Family Renovations, LLC was very professional and thorough in the work he has completed. He installed a new screen door, replaced my tub stem and faucet, repaired my subfloor in the kitchen and installed brand new LVP flooring to replace old and water damaged flooring. He also mounted a television for me, and did some drywall repairs as well. I would recommend this business to anyone looking for quality and dependable work!"

Tub Shower Conversion questions, answered by experts
A stall is a basic shower that's smaller than a walk-in shower. A stall usually only has room for one person to stand and turn around. Walk-in showers are often large enough to walk around in or fit more than one person. And thanks to their large size, walk-in showers often don't require a curtain or door to block stray water.
The amount of space needed depends on the size of the shower. For the standard 32-by-32-inch walk-in shower, you’ll need about 50 square inches. The International Residential Code requires a minimum of 24 inches of space in front of a walk-in shower’s entrance. That said, the National Kitchen & Bath Association recommends 30 inches of clearance, which is a bit more comfortable for most people.
Ideally, you’ll have enough room to open your doors and cabinets without interfering with your shower. This may not be possible in a smaller bathroom.
You can install a shower pan liner over plywood using the steps outlined above. However, before pouring the mortar pre-slope or installing a premanufactured slope product, check the condition of the plywood. The subfloor should be stable, level, and free of rot or other damage. You’ll need to repair damaged sections before pouring the mortar.
A hard-to-turn shower handle is usually caused by corrosion or mineral buildup, which clogs the assembly and creates friction inside the valve. Remove the handle and look for signs of corrosion—rust-colored build-up—or mineral accumulation—white build-up. For corrosion, replacing the shower handle is your best bet. For mineral build-up, soak the handle in a solution of water and white vinegar (2:1) for an hour before reinstalling it.
Shower pan replacement costs depend on the size and shape of the pan and whether you install it or hire a shower installer. On average, replacing a shower pan costs around $1,620, but costs range between $900 and $2,300. Hiring an experienced pro helps ensure that the installation is done correctly and your shower won’t leak.
