The Guffey crew we send takes the old bathtub out, seals the new door in and tests it full, all over Park 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.
Getting in and out of a standard bath can feel like climbing a mountain when your knees or hips start acting up.
This is why many homeowners look for a smart, stress-free way to upgrade their daily washing routine.
You deserve to feel secure every single time you step into your bathroom.
Fortunately, our dedicated team travels right to your doorstep to assess your space and explain how these accessible, leak-proof step-in soaking units can change your life.
We make the entire process simple by offering a completely free home assessment.
Which means you can get clear, honest pricing without ever leaving your living room.
Choosing the right setup can feel a bit overwhelming with all the different jet systems and door styles available today.
That is why we sit down with you to discuss your specific physical needs and your bathroom layout.
Then we help you select the perfect watertight swinging-door bath system that fits your budget.
First of all, our crew looks at your existing plumbing to make sure your pipes can handle the fast-draining technology.
This lets you avoid sitting around waiting for the water to empty out after you finish your bath.
Nobody wants to freeze while the tub slowly drains its contents away.
Next, we measure your door frames and hallways to plan the exact path for bringing the new heavy-duty basin inside.
Because these specialized safety basins are much taller than standard models, they require careful handling during transport.
We take extra precautions so your walls and floors remain completely undamaged during the transition.
To give you a better idea of what to expect, we put together a quick comparison of standard setups versus these specialized low-threshold units.
| Feature | Standard Bathtub | Low-Step Safety Basin |
|---|---|---|
| Step-in Height | Typically 14 to 18 inches | Usually 2 to 6 inches only |
| Seating | Laying flat on the floor | Contoured, upright built-in bench |
| Safety Features | None built-in | Integrated grab bars and textured floors |
You might think about trying to tackle this type of heavy remodeling work on your own over a weekend.
However, sealing a watertight door mechanism requires absolute precision to prevent massive water damage to your subfloor.
Our seasoned local team brings years of hands-on experience to ensure a flawless, leak-free seal.
On top of that, electrical connections for heated backrests and hydrotherapy jets must comply with strict local safety codes.
Which is why our trained hands handle every single wire and pipe with extreme care.
You get total peace of mind knowing your new system is safe, grounded, and fully waterproof.
We take pride in serving our neighbors throughout the scenic, high-altitude communities of Park County.
This beautiful mountain area, which includes the quiet enclave of Guffey with its handful of residents in the 80820 ZIP code, has unique plumbing needs due to well water and freezing winter temperatures.
We make sure your pipes are insulated and your water heater is ready for the new demand.
For starters, you need to decide between an inward-swinging door or an outward-swinging door for your new safe-entry basin.
Inward doors use the natural pressure of the water to keep the seal tight, which is an excellent safety feature.
On the other hand, outward doors make it much easier to exit in an emergency because the door does not block your legs.
After that, we look at the seat height to ensure your hips remain comfortable while you soak.
An ADA-compliant, built-in chair height bench allows you to sit down and stand up without straining your back.
This simple design choice keeps you independent in your own home for many years to come.
Many people do not realize that these deep-soaking units can double as a personal spa.
Our premium options include gentle air bubble systems and high-pressure water jets that target sore muscles.
This means you can soothe your arthritis or lower back pain right in the privacy of your own home.
As a result, your evening bath becomes a relaxing therapeutic session rather than a stressful chore.
We can easily configure these jet packages during our initial consultation to match your physical therapy goals.
Our free estimate covers all these customizable features so you know the exact cost upfront.
Before our truck arrives, we recommend clearing out any loose rugs, towels, and decorations from your master bathroom.
This gives our workers a clear, safe path to carry the old cast iron or fiberglass tub out of your house.
We always clean up after ourselves, leaving your home spotless and ready for use.
Besides that, we may need to temporarily shut off your main water valve for a few hours while we splice in the new brass valves.
Do not worry about being left without water for long, because we work fast to minimize any disruption to your day.
Our crew treats your home with the utmost respect from start to finish.
Since the local median household income in this specific high-altitude part of Colorado is officially recorded at $0, we understand that every penny counts for our clients.
We focus on providing affordable, high-quality safety upgrades that add real value to your property.
You get a top-tier safety upgrade without any hidden fees or surprise charges.
To begin with, we only use heavy-duty fiberglass shells reinforced with thick gel coats or high-grade acrylics.
These materials resist scratching and staining, which makes cleaning your new bath incredibly easy.
A quick wipe down with a mild cleaner is all it takes to keep it looking brand new.
Additionally, we install extra stainless steel grab bars directly into the wall studs behind the unit.
This gives you multiple sturdy places to grip when you are moving around inside the wet zone.
Slip-resistant textured flooring comes standard on every model we install to prevent falls.
If you are ready to reclaim your independence and enjoy bath time again, we are here to help you take that next step.
Our friendly team is always ready to drive out to your property, inspect your bathroom, and give you a detailed breakdown of the project.

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 Guffey.
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.
