The Harbor Heights crew we send takes the old bathtub out, seals the new door in and tests it full, all over Broward 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 as we get older or deal with stiff joints.
Which is why installing a specialized, low-threshold bathing unit with a secure door makes so much sense for your daily routine.
These smart setups let you step right in without lifting your legs over a dangerous porcelain barrier.
Suddenly, you do not have to worry about slipping on wet tiles while balancing on one foot.
This simple change transforms your daily wash from a stressful chore into a highly relaxing ritual.
You deserve to feel completely secure and independent in your own home every single day.
Our dedicated local team specializes in setting up these accessible soaking systems right in your existing layout.
By requesting a home evaluation, you get a clear picture of how easily we can convert your space.
We come directly to your house to measure everything and give you a detailed plan without any pressure.
These unique sealed-door basins are designed with incredibly low entry thresholds that sit just inches off the floor.
This means you simply open the leak-proof door, walk right in, and sit down on a comfortable, built-in elevated seat.
Once you are safely inside, you close the door, seal it tight, and let the warm water fill up around you.
Many models also come equipped with soothing hydrotherapy jets that target your sore muscles and aching back.
This warm water therapy helps ease arthritis pain and improves your circulation while you just sit back and relax.
Because of this built-in seat, you never have to struggle to stand back up from the very bottom of a deep tub.
To give you a better idea of how these systems compare to traditional setups, here is a quick breakdown of the main differences.
| Feature | Standard Bath Setup | Accessible Sealed-Door Unit |
|---|---|---|
| Step-in Height | Typically 14 to 18 inches high | Usually only 2 to 6 inches high |
| Seating | None, you must sit on the floor | Built-in, ADA-compliant raised bench |
| Safety Level | High risk of slipping and falling | Very secure with grab bars and non-slip floors |
| Therapy Options | Basic soaking only | Air and water massage jets available |
Choosing this upgrade is truly an investment in your long-term safety and personal freedom.
Our skilled technicians handle the entire swap quickly, often in just a couple of days, so your routine is barely disrupted.
We make sure every pipe, drain, and seal is perfectly aligned to prevent any future headaches.
Attempting to install one of these heavy, specialized units on your own can quickly turn into a plumbing nightmare.
These systems require precise leveling, heavy-duty structural support, and advanced sealing techniques to ensure they never leak a single drop.
On top of that, your existing water lines and drains usually need to be relocated or widened for faster filling and draining.
Our experienced crew knows exactly how to navigate the trickiest plumbing scenarios without damaging your walls.
This level of expertise means you get a flawless finish that looks beautiful and functions perfectly for decades.
We also take care of disposing of your old, heavy cast-iron or fiberglass basin so you do not have to lift a finger.
Living in this beautiful corner of Broward County means enjoying a relaxed lifestyle, and your bathroom should reflect that peace.
We love helping residents in our local community of under three thousand people stay safe in their homes.
You can choose from a wide variety of sizes and shapes that fit seamlessly into the standard footprint of your old shower.
This means we do not have to tear down your entire bathroom just to fit this new, secure system in place.
We can add heated backrests, handheld showerheads, and quick-drain technology so you do not have to sit around waiting for the water to empty.
These custom additions ensure that your new setup perfectly matches your physical needs and aesthetic preferences.
You get to design a space that looks like a high-end spa while secretly being a fortress of safety.
We walk you through every single option during our initial visit to make sure you get exactly what you want.
First, we start with a friendly consultation in your home to look at your current plumbing layout.
This allows us to give you an incredibly accurate estimate and answer any questions you might have about the process.
We believe in complete transparency, which is why we never hit you with hidden fees or surprise costs down the road.
Next, our team carefully removes your old fixture and inspects the subfloor for any hidden water damage or rot.
We then reinforce the floor to handle the weight of the new unit filled with water and install the new plumbing lines.
Finally, we slide the new system into place, secure all the seals, and test every single feature before we declare the job done.
This meticulous attention to detail ensures your home remains dry and protected from mold or water damage.
You can rest easy knowing that every connection was made by a skilled professional who cares about your safety.
We clean up our workspace so thoroughly that you won't even know we were there, except for your gorgeous new bath.

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 Harbor Heights.
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.
