CAN YOU GUARANTEE THE TUB OR SHOWER WILL FIT?

Yes. Before we make an official order, our team will perform a free estimate and measure your entire bathroom. Depending on our findings, we will have an approximate idea of what bathtub or shower will fit into the room. We like to ensure our customers that if necessary steps are taken, we can avoid any mishaps, such as fittings and final layouts. Not to mention, we have 22 different sizes and configurations to choose from. Therefore, there is a great chance we will find a tub or shower that suits your needs!

EXACTLY WHAT IS A WALK-IN TUB?

A walk-in tub is a bathtub that has been accommodated with accessibility options, e.g., a side door or cut-out that allows easy access. Often, these walk-in tubs are installed for persons with mobility issues, such as those in wheelchairs, those who use walkers, and those who have difficulties getting around. For those wishing peace of mind when walking into a tub, a walk-in tub might be an excellent fit for you! Additionally, we offer the option to convert an existing bathtub or install a new walk-in tub.

DO I NEED A WALK-IN SHOWER?

walk-in shower is a shower or tub that has been replaced or made accessible with different options. Most of the time, this means replacing a bathtub with a shower without a lip on edge, making it wheelchair accessible. It can also mean including seating or handrails for ease of accessibility. Overall, a walk-in shower ensures that those with mobility issues have a stress-free experience in the shower.

WHAT IS THE AVERAGE TIME TO INSTALL A TUB OR SHOWER?

This depends on the complexity of the job. For instance, new construction may take longer than a remodel, depending on the objective. Sometimes, a smaller shower installation may take half a day, but other, larger installations may take up to two days. Generally, installations can be completed in one to two days, but it is essential to talk with your contractor about specifications, alterations, and expectations before signing a contract.

WILL I HAVE A COLOR CHOICE?

Yes! This is the case for most options. While walk-in tubs only come in white, deep soakers and walk-in showers come in five different color choices. Additionally, there are 19 unique color choices for the surrounding wall, along with nine different patterns.
