Serving Richmond and Madison County
Replace an unused bathtub with a walk-in shower in your Richmond home.
Richmond, Kentucky
If the tub never gets used, it is taking up the best space in the bathroom. We convert tubs to walk-in showers for Richmond homeowners, usually within the same footprint, with tile walls, a proper shower pan and a glass door or panel.
In newer Richmond homes, the primary bath often has both a tub and a small shower. Converting the hall tub or combining the two gives you a shower you will actually use.
Older Richmond homes often have a cast iron tub in the only full bath. We remove it carefully and update the drain and valve while the wall is open.
What’s included
Old tub and surround taken out cleanly.
Plumbing moved and brought up to date.
Tiled or solid-surface base.
Waterproofed and tiled to the ceiling.
Doors or fixed panels.
