"Our tub/shower conversion to walk in shower went great and we are pleased with the outcome. Our installer, Walter and Oscar, were professional, able to answer any questions and very easy to work with."
"Getting a walk in tub is expensive no matter who you use. My experience thus far is with installation only and I must say my install went great. It has been over a month and no issues with my tub so I cannot comment on repair process with American Standard."
"I am so appreciative of Matt, he came to disconnect my sinks for a countertop update . He also gave me his opinion concerning plumbing in my showers. He went out of his way to answer questions. Cardinal also put in my furnace and air conditioner and always professional. Big shout out to Matt! Thank you!"
"I had Kegonsa plumb a 1/2 bathroom a couple of months ago and they were fantastic. However, I wanted to leave another glowing review.

"We were looking to replace our old bathtub and were pleased to find out that we could use a tub insert instead of replacing the entire tub. Exterior Pros provided us with a new looking bathtub in one day. They came took measurements and put the new liner in our tub. My kids came home and thought we actually replaced the old tub with a new one. Love the work and the *new tub* lol."
"We really appreciated working with Steele Home Remodeling. His bid was comprehensive and detailed. He provided unique design ideas for our space and helped us get the most out of our basement. Phill and his team provide quality work with an eye for small details that make the project and space come to life. I have already recommended him to family and friends looking for basement remodels."
"Cotton and his crew were so adaptable and easygoing that any changes in plans were no problem. Their expertise put me at ease when unexpected changes happened because of COVID19. I would have no hesitation to hire them for another project and highly recommend Cotton."
Tub Shower Conversion questions, answered by experts
In most cases, you can remove your showerhead without turning off your main water supply. You just need to make sure your shower isn’t on before you screw off the showerhead. That said, you may experience a small trickle of leftover water in the pipe.
If you have an older showerhead, it may be a good idea to turn off the main water supply because this job can put pressure on the pipes. If you have a shower shut-off valve, it will be hidden somewhere in a nearby access panel.
If you have an alcove in your bathroom, you don’t necessarily need to install an alcove tub. You can choose a drop-in tub and fit the frame to the alcove. This allows you to get a more custom or spa-like look. Think cultured marble or tiling for the frame versus the simpler look of acrylic or fiberglass with an alcove tub.
A roll-in shower is a popular bathroom remodel for seniors that includes a large, open space that's larger than your standard shower, a smooth, beveled slope no higher than half an inch to allow wheelchairs to enter, shower handrails to assist with support, anti-slip coating, and a shower bench for sitting. Some roll-in showers have other features like shelving, storage, and hand shower arm extensions or slide mounts.
Per the International Code Council, walk-in shower floors should have a minimum slope of 1/4-inch per foot (or a 2% slope) towards the drain. The slope should be no steeper than 1/2-inch per foot (or a 4% slope). This helps safely direct water into the drain rather than all over your bathroom.
Plumbers replace shower pans, shower liners, drains, and drain traps. But if you want to tile over your pan, you’ll need to call in a tiler after the plumber installers the pan. Alternatively, you may be able to hire a shower installer to complete the entire job from start to finish.
