"Converted tub to shower, 1 day installation! Professional from start to finish, it was very smooth working with them. I appreciated how thorough and transparent they were in regards to pricing and timeline of the whole project. Not the cheapest of the contractors I got quotes from but their labor and materials came with warranty and 1 day installation was worth the cost. Plus, their quote was still a bit cheaper than other well known national brands that offer similar service. Highly recommend Renken!"
"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."
"A wanted bathroom with tub changed to a shower. The price was what I expected until the rebates they have cut thousands. Will contact them again for future renovations."
"We recently used David Turner's company to remodel our master bathroom, and I couldn't be happier. I can be a particular, sometimes demanding client, and to top it off, I was working with him remotely from Alexandria, so there were many phone conversations and pictures exchanged with David who was onsite in Shepherdstown keeping me apprised of progress. David was on top of everything. He went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect and regularly came up with ideas for how to do things better that aligned well with the vision I had for the room. In addition to solid construction, he paid a lot of attention on prep work to ensure the rest of the house was protected during construction. He was highly responsive, and the end result is beautiful. I can't say enough positive things about this experience."
"Craig and his team were awesome. They remodeled our bathroom for less than half of what we were quoted by the other companies. They did a great job and they were very efficient and fast to get the work done. I can't say enough about the guys at RCH Construction. My family and I are very grateful. Recommend 100%"
"If you want it done right, call Top Leader Construction. Ilan goes that extra step to make sure EVERYTHING is correct. He built a deck for us and a ramp. Plus he put grip bars in the shower. Everything looks professional and really, perfect. Everything went smoothly and he did exactly what he said he would do. It was by far, the best remodel I have ever experienced. No problems, no glitches. I plan to use them again and again."
"It went really well. I needed two large rooms done (removing carpet and installing laminate floors I had already purchased). I had put in a request on Angie’s for a quote and I received a call right away. Mario was able to come over the same day and give me an estimate. It was almost half of what I had received from other floor install companies. They were able to schedule me in right away. And the job was done in one day. The floors look great! No complains."
Tub Shower Conversion questions, answered by experts
A walk-in shower without a door is referred to as a barrier-free shower or doorless walk-in shower. This feature makes the shower more accessible for people with disabilities, but it can also be attractive for minimalist designs because of the clean lines. A doorless walk-in shower also means one less surface to clean, but they can have downsides like splashing water and a lack of privacy, so do your research first.
A professional ensures correct installation, avoiding leaks and water damage while guaranteeing compliance with local building codes.
It depends on your or your loved one’s needs. One grab bar will do if you only need help getting in and out of the shower. You might need two: one near your shower’s entrance if you need help getting in and out of your shower and another to help you move around inside it.
Walk-in showers aren’t necessarily better. It depends on your circumstances. On the one hand, they’re more accessible—especially for people who use a wheelchair. They also take up less space than bathtubs and are ideal for small bathrooms. On the other hand, some families may need a bathtub to bathe young children and pets.
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.
