One number reaches the people who fit the tubs. Say what the bathroom is like and we take it from there.
(844) 578-1861Take your time on the phone. Who does the bathing, how they get around today, the size of the bathroom and the doorways on the way in: that is all we need to set a date for the visit.
Stepping over that high barrier of your old washing basin can feel like climbing a mountain every single day. This struggle often turns a simple daily routine into a scary chore that leaves you feeling anxious. Thankfully, you can easily swap that dangerous setup for a secure, low-step bathing system that keeps you safe.
Suddenly, you do not have to worry about slipping on wet tiles while balancing on one foot anymore.
Our team visits your home to measure your space and plan a painless upgrade.
We focus on putting your mind at ease by creating a beautiful, accessible setup.
Because your peace of mind matters, we offer completely free in-home consultations to discuss your layout.
By choosing this upgrade, you gain a sense of true self-reliance while staying in the home you love.
You can finally look forward to a warm, deep soak without any of the usual stress.
To start, these specialized units feature a leak-proof door that allows you to walk right inside. This means you no longer have to hoist your legs over a slippery porcelain ledge. Instead, you just open the swinging portal, step across a tiny threshold, and sit down on a comfortable raised seat.
Additionally, we integrate heavy-duty grab bars and slip-resistant floors directly into the new design.
These safety features prevent dangerous falls before they even have a chance to happen.
On top of that, the fast-draining technology ensures you do not sit around freezing while the water empties out.
To help you understand the options, we compiled a quick guide on the different setups available for your home.
| System Feature | Concrete Benefit for You | Why It Matters |
|---|---|---|
| Low-entry threshold | No more high stepping | Prevents trips and falls |
| Contoured built-in seat | Sit safely while washing | Reduces fatigue and joint strain |
| Hydrotherapy jets | Soothing muscle relief | Eases chronic aches naturally |
| Fast-drain technology | Exit the basin quickly | No waiting in the cold |
Which means you get a custom-tailored solution that fits your physical needs and your existing plumbing.
Our skilled crew handles the entire swap from start to finish with minimal disruption to your daily life.
We clean up every speck of dust so you can enjoy your new sanctuary immediately.
Now, trying to tackle this kind of plumbing and structural project yourself usually leads to major headaches. Water damage from a poorly sealed door can ruin your subfloors and cost thousands to repair. Our seasoned local team knows exactly how to align these heavy units so they stay completely watertight.
Indeed, we understand the unique housing styles here in Archuleta County very well.
This local knowledge allows us to anticipate plumbing quirks in homes across the 81121 ZIP code area.
We always make sure your hot water heater can handle the volume of your new deep-soaking system.
Consequently, hiring us means you avoid the stress of permit filings and complex pipe rerouting.
We bring all the necessary tools and expertise directly to your doorstep.
You get a flawless result backed by a solid guarantee of workmanship.
Imagine relaxing in water that reaches up to your chest while you sit fully upright. This deep immersion provides therapeutic warmth that standard shallow basins simply cannot match. It helps soothe sore muscles and stiff joints after a long day of moving around.
Besides that, we can install heated backrests and air massage jets for a true spa-like feel.
These luxurious additions turn a basic hygiene routine into the highlight of your day.
You deserve to feel pampered while knowing you are completely secure in your own home.
To achieve this, we only use high-quality acrylic shells that resist mold and are incredibly easy to clean.
This durable material keeps its brilliant shine for years without requiring harsh scrubbing.
Which means you spend less time cleaning and more time enjoying your peaceful baths.
First, you must choose between an inward-swinging door or an outward-swinging door. An inward door uses the water pressure to help keep the seal tight and secure. However, an outward door makes it much easier to exit the basin in an emergency.
We help you evaluate your bathroom layout to see which door style fits best.
This personalized assessment ensures you never feel cramped or trapped in your space.
Our goal is to maximize your physical ease and daily safety.
Next, we must check if your current water tank can fill a larger vessel quickly. Sometimes, we recommend a high-recovery heater or a tankless system to keep the warm water flowing. This prevents the disappointment of running out of hot water halfway through your bath.
By assessing this beforehand, we guarantee a warm and cozy experience every single time.
We never cut corners or leave you with a system that underperforms.
Your daily satisfaction is our absolute priority.

Three ideas carry the whole invention. Once they make sense, the rest of this page is just detail.
You open the door, walk in on a dry floor, sit down and close it. Only then does the water run. Because the door swings into the tub, the water itself presses it against its seal: the fuller the tub, the tighter it holds. The design cannot forget to be shut properly.
An ordinary bathtub asks you to swing a leg over a wall some fifteen inches tall, on wet tile, usually while holding nothing sturdier than a towel bar. A walk-in tub asks for a small step, about the height of a stair riser cut in half, with a grab bar placed exactly where your hand goes looking for one.
The honest cost of the sealed door is that you sit while the tub fills and while it empties. Makers answer with fast drains, often two of them, that send the water away in a couple of minutes, and with heated seats and warm air so those minutes pass kindly. We time both on your own plumbing at the assessment.
We install walk-in tubs, so you might expect us to always recommend one. We will not. If you have not enjoyed a bath in twenty years, a walk-in shower may serve you better, and we will say so at your own sink. Here is the honest picture.
| The question | Walk-in tub | Walk-in shower |
|---|---|---|
| What bathing feels like | A full warm soak, jets if you want them | A quick rinse, standing or on a bench |
| Time it asks of you | Longer: fill, soak, drain | Minutes, in and out |
| Floor space needed | Sits in the footprint of the old bathtub | Wants a little more open floor to work well |
| Budget, installed | Higher, because the door and seal are precision work | Often lower for a simple conversion |
| Sore joints and tired muscles | Warm water and jets do real, daily good here | No soak, so none of the soak's relief |
| Who tends to love it | People who cherish their bath and mean to keep it | People who shower quickly and want easy cleaning |
The deciding question is usually the first row. If the answer to "do you miss your bath" is yes, the rest of the table tends to follow.
We cut it free, shield the floors along the hallway and carry it out gently. Most old bathtubs are gone from the house before lunch.
Walk-in tubs are built to travel through ordinary doorways. Every door on the route gets measured at the assessment, so delivery day holds no surprises.
Your supply lines usually stay where they are. We fit the new valve, the hand shower and the quick drain, and check that your water heater can fill a proper soak.
The door is the heart of the tub, so it gets the slow, careful hour: aligned, adjusted and closed on its seal until the gap reads even all the way around.
When your tub has hydrotherapy, the pumps go in quiet, the lines are purged, and every control lands where a seated bather reaches it without leaning.
Panels and trim close the sides and the caulk lines are drawn clean. Then the tub is filled to the very brim once, and we watch the seal earn its keep.
We would rather tell you this before you fall in love with a tub. A walk-in tub is a home improvement, not medical equipment, and it is paid for out of the household budget the way a new roof or a rebuilt porch is. Anyone who tells you otherwise on a first phone call is selling harder than they are listening.
We make no claim about what any plan, programme or agency might do on your behalf, and we will not guess for them. Those questions belong to the people who administer them, and their answer is the only one that counts. Ask them directly, and ask before you commit to anything, including anything of ours.
What we can do is make the asking easy. Your quote arrives itemized, every line explained, so whoever needs to see it gets a precise document instead of a vague promise. That is the whole of what we control, and we would rather hand you that than a hopeful sentence about somebody else's money.
You tell us who bathes and how they get around, the rough size of the bathroom and how the tub would travel in. A few minutes on the phone, and a date for the visit.
We come to your home, measure the bathroom and every doorway on the route, and listen. No van full of tubs at the curb, no clipboard theatrics, no hurry.
A written quote follows, with each line explained in plain words: the tub, the work, the removal of the old one. Show it to your family. Sleep on it as long as you like.
One crew, one to three days. The old tub out, the new one plumbed, sealed and tested full. Your water is off for hours at a stretch, never for days.
Before we leave, we go through the door, the seat, the drain and the controls with the person who will actually bathe, until every part of it feels ordinary.
| The project | Usual bracket | What sits inside it |
|---|---|---|
| Walk-in soaker tub, installed | $4,000 - $8,000 | The tub, the door, removal of the old bathtub and the full fitting. |
| Hydrotherapy tub with jets | $6,000 - $12,000 | Water jets, warm air or both, with the pumps and controls they need. |
| Bariatric or wide-door tub | $7,000 - $14,000 | Wider seats and doors on a reinforced frame, sized at the assessment. |
| Removing the old bathtub alone | $450 - $1,200 | Folded into the lines above; priced apart only if you stop there. |
| Dedicated electrical circuit | $400 - $1,000 | Heated seats and pumps want their own breaker when the panel has no spare. |
| Walk-in tub and shower combo | $8,000 - $15,000 | One unit that soaks and showers, for households that want both. |
Your bathroom, your plumbing and the tub you choose set the final figure. That is exactly what the assessment is for.
| The feature | What it is | Why it counts |
|---|---|---|
| Low threshold | A step of about four inches into the tub | The climb over a bathtub wall is where most bathroom falls begin. Removing the climb removes the moment. |
| Seat at chair height | A molded seat near seventeen inches, like a dining chair | Sitting down and standing back up stay easy on knees and hips, with no lowering to the floor of a tub. |
| Grab bars where hands land | Fixed bars at the door and beside the seat | Balance never has to depend on a towel bar that was only ever meant to hold towels. |
| Textured floor and seat | Slip resistance molded into the tub surface itself | Wet feet keep their grip without rubber mats that curl, slide and grow things. |
| Anti-scald valve | A mixing valve that caps how hot water can arrive | Skin grows thinner with the years. The valve keeps a hot surprise from ever reaching it. |
You do sit in the tub while it fills, so the wait is real: usually a few minutes, depending on your water pressure and your heater. Many bathers spend it with the warm air running or the hand shower on their shoulders. At the assessment we run your own faucet and give you an honest minute count for your own bathroom, not a brochure number.
The door only opens once the water is gone, so the drain matters. Fast drain systems empty most tubs in about two minutes, and heated seats and warm air keep the chill away while they do. We will tell you plainly which tubs drain fastest on your plumbing around Arboles.
The door seals the way a ship's hatch does: the water itself presses it shut, so a good seal gets tighter as the tub fills. Every tub we fit is filled to the brim and watched before we call the job finished, and the seal carries the maker's warranty. If it ever weeps, we come back, and the trip costs you nothing.
Nearly always, because walk-in tubs are designed to travel through ordinary hallways and door frames. We measure the whole route at the assessment, front porch to bathroom. If a doorway is genuinely too narrow, you hear it from us at your kitchen table, never on delivery day.
Yes, and it happens all the time. We can hold the assessment while you are there in person, on the phone or on a video call, and the written quote goes to whoever is helping with the decision. The walkthrough at the end is always done with the person who will actually bathe.
No. We measure, we listen, we leave a written price, and your house is your own again. Some families decide that week and some take a season. The figure holds as written, and nobody from our side will camp on your phone line.
