The Goddard crew we send takes the old bathtub out, seals the new door in and tests it full, all over Sedgwick County. 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.
Maybe you slipped on the wet tile yesterday morning. That scary tumble reminds you that standard bathing gear becomes dangerous as we age. Fortunately, getting a secure soaking vessel added to your home changes everything.
Therefore, you gain total peace of mind during your daily routine. This simple upgrade lets you bathe independently without worrying about high basin walls. Consequently, your bathroom becomes a much safer space for everyone in the household.
Living right here in Sedgwick County means dealing with unique older housing styles. Many houses in our region feature cramped builder-grade bathrooms that require careful retrofitting. Because of this, custom placement is crucial for a snug fit.
With a cozy local population around 4,319 residents, neighbors appreciate trustworthy neighborhood contractors. Most homeowners here enjoy a median household income hovering near $70,625, making targeted home improvements very smart. This lets you boost your property value while directly improving your daily physical safety.
Standard tubs force you to lift your legs dangerously high. By contrast, a low-threshold soaking box eliminates that risky hurdle entirely. This lets you simply walk right through a swinging water-tight door.
Inside, you discover a built-in contoured seat designed for maximum coziness. Sitting down comfortably means you never have to struggle while washing your lower body. Furthermore, strategically placed grab bars give your hands something sturdy to hold onto.
| Feature | Direct Benefit |
|---|---|
| Low Door Threshold | Prevents nasty tripping accidents |
| Ergonomic Seating | Lets you relax without fatigue |
| Hydrotherapy Jets | Soothes aching joints naturally |
Adding hydrotherapy jets provides amazing relief for sore muscles after yard work. Such targeted water action melts away daily stress effortlessly. Meanwhile, quick-drain technology ensures you never sit shivering while waiting for water to empty.
Properties sharing the 67052 postal routing often have specific plumbing quirks. Older supply lines sometimes need upgrading before heavy modern fixtures can connect safely. Thus, hiring a knowledgeable local builder prevents costly water damage down the road.
Planning your renovation begins with a thorough measurement of the existing bathing alcove. Professionals check your subfloor integrity to ensure it supports a heavy filled basin. This vital step stops sagging issues before they even start.
Once measurements finish, you select your preferred acrylic color and door swing direction. Customizing these details matches your personal taste while keeping daily usage intuitive. Then, scheduling the actual swap takes only a couple of days from start to finish.
Homeowners often worry about messy demolition tearing up their entire hallway. However, experienced crews use protective floor coverings to keep dust strictly contained. This lets you live normally while the team works hard behind closed doors.
Another big concern involves lengthy downtime without a working bathroom facility. Fortunately, most standard retrofits happen within a single business day. Which means you can usually take a safe bath by that very same evening.
Worries about high costs also stop many people from upgrading sooner. Yet, viewing this project as an investment in your bodily safety changes the perspective. Furthermore, preventing just one serious fall saves you thousands in medical bills.
Arriving early on the scheduled day, technicians carefully remove your old porcelain shell. They inspect the exposed studs for any hidden mold or rot. This guarantees your new setup rests upon a solid and healthy foundation.
Next comes leveling the floor base so the appliance drains properly every time. Plumbers then hook up the mixing valve and secure the water supply lines. Finally, they test all seals thoroughly to guarantee zero leaks occur.
Cleaning up the work zone happens before the crew packs their tools away. You receive a complete demonstration on how the door latch and fast-drain mechanisms operate. This ensures you feel completely confident using your new gear right away.
Budgeting for a major home modification requires looking at flexible payment structures. Such financial flexibility lets you get the safety features you need right now.
Spreading payments out over several years makes top-tier safety equipment easily affordable. You avoid dipping into your retirement savings for unexpected house repairs.
Comparing different payment methods helps you choose the smartest financial path forward. Wise planning guarantees your investment brings joy rather than financial stress.
Keeping your new acrylic basin sparkling clean takes very little physical effort. Mild dish soap and a soft sponge wipe away soap scum instantly. Avoid harsh abrasive powders that might scratch the glossy finish over time.
Checking the rubber door seal once a year prevents unexpected water leaks. Keeping this gasket supple ensures a watertight barrier during every single bath. Simple maintenance habits like this extend the lifespan of your plumbing investment significantly.
Waiting until another close call happens in the bathroom is never wise. Proactive safety measures protect your independence for many wonderful years ahead. Now is the ideal moment to take control of your household environment.

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 Goddard.
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.
