The Cheneyville crew we send takes the old bathtub out, seals the new door in and tests it full, all over Rapides Parish. Bathing stays at home, where it belongs.
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.
Getting into a high-walled porcelain basin often feels like a dangerous mountain climb for your weary joints and aching muscles. You deserve a better way to scrub away the day without risking a nasty slip on those slick surfaces.
Installing a specialized entry-way basin provides you with total peace of mind and keeps your body feeling great. When you opt for this smart home improvement, you effectively remove the biggest hazard in your private washroom.
Most standard setups force you to lift your legs way too high just to enter the water. This awkward movement puts unnecessary strain on your hips and knees every single morning.
Replacing that old relic with a door-equipped model lets you simply step inside like you are walking through a doorway. Because you keep your feet firmly planted on the ground, the chance of tumbling backward drops to almost nothing.
Furthermore, these modern basins come with low thresholds that make entry a breeze for folks of all ages. You gain back your independence while keeping your bathroom aesthetic looking sharp and polished.
Having an integrated seat inside the basin means you can sit down while you wash your hair. This takes the pressure off your feet and lets you relax during your morning routine.
Since these tubs often feature deep soaking capabilities, you get the benefit of warm water covering your shoulders. This helps loosen up those tight muscles that bother you after a long shift at work.
Beyond the physical perks, you add significant value to your property by modernizing your primary washroom area. Future buyers will definitely appreciate the thoughtful addition of a accessible bathing space.
Living in this charming part of Rapides Parish means you value the quiet life and local connections we share here. With a modest population and a tight-knit vibe, everyone looks out for their neighbors when things get tough.
Managing your household budget is always a priority when you consider making updates to your living space. Even with the local median income around nineteen thousand dollars, smart home investments pay off in the long run.
Your home is your castle, so making it functional for the long haul is a very wise move. We serve the 71325 area with pride and dedication to ensure your setup works perfectly for your specific needs.
Starting this journey is simpler than you might imagine because we handle every single step of the transformation. You tell us what you need, and we show up to take precise measurements of your current space.
Once we know the dimensions, we help you pick out a model that fits your bathroom style perfectly. There is no need to worry about the heavy lifting because our crew manages the removal of the old unit.
Precision is the key to a leak-free experience, so we pay close attention to every pipe and connection. You will notice the difference in quality right away once we finish the job.
Everything begins with a friendly chat where we walk through your bathroom and listen to your concerns. You show us where the current plumbing is located, and we verify that the new unit will fit well.
Because we believe in transparency, we provide a free estimate before we ever pick up a single tool. You get the full picture of the costs so you can plan your finances without any sudden surprises.
Our team takes care to protect your floors and walls during the entire construction phase. You stay in control of the project while we do the heavy work behind the scenes.
Using high-quality seals and reliable hardware prevents common issues like water leaks or drainage problems. We test everything multiple times to make sure the water flows just like it should.
You receive instructions on how to keep your new unit clean without using harsh chemicals. Regular care ensures the surface remains bright and the door latch stays tight for as long as you live there.
Should you ever have a question about the operation of the handle or the drain, we are just a call away. We stand behind our work because we want you to feel confident in your decision.
Saving money is important, but you should never trade quality for a lower price tag on your bathroom fixtures. A cheap model might look fine at first, but it will likely give you headaches down the road.
Investing in a sturdy, well-engineered unit means you avoid expensive repairs and constant maintenance issues over time. You benefit from a durable solution that keeps your morning routine smooth and worry-free.
Think about the long-term ease of use that comes with a premium installation. You gain time, physical ease, and a beautiful space that you can actually enjoy using every single day.

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 Cheneyville.
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.
