Struggling with high tub walls can make daily bathing feel like an obstacle course. If you want to regain your peace of mind and upgrade your bathroom safety, our team is ready to help. You can easily request a free quote today to transform your home with a secure, low-step bathing solution.
Every single year, thousands of people experience slips in the bathroom because of traditional high-sided basins. This is why replacing your old setup with a secure, low-threshold alternative makes so much sense. You get to enjoy a deep soak without the fear of falling.
Indeed, a custom-fitted leak-free bathing system with an airtight door changes how you view your daily routine. This specialized setup lets you simply step in, close the secure latch, and fill the basin with warm water while sitting down. Naturally, this setup removes the physical strain of balancing on one wet foot.
To make things even better, our experienced local crew handles the entire swap from start to finish. This means you do not have to worry about messy plumbing headaches or structural issues. We come directly to your home to evaluate your current layout and offer a detailed, no-obligation estimate.
When you invest in a low-step accessible bath, you are really investing in your long-term independence. Many homeowners realize that staying in their beloved homes becomes much easier with the right upgrades. This safety enhancement protects your freedom and gives your family total peace of mind.
Moreover, these specialized units come packed with features designed for ultimate relaxation and security. Think about sturdy grab bars, slip-resistant floors, and heated seating that keeps you cozy while the water drains. Here is a quick look at how these features translate to real daily benefits for you:
| Safety Feature | Concrete Daily Benefit For You |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low entry threshold | No more lifting your legs over dangerous barriers |
| Contoured built-in seating | You can bathe comfortably while seated safely |
| Fast-drain technology | You do not have to sit shivering waiting for water to empty |
| Hydrotherapy water jets | Sooths your sore muscles and relieves joint pain |
As you can see, every single detail serves a very specific purpose to keep you secure. This smart upgrade turns a stressful chore back into a relaxing, therapeutic experience. Best of all, our team ensures the fit is absolutely seamless within your existing space.
Because every bathroom layout is unique, you need a customized approach that fits your specific square footage. Some homes require compact models that fit perfectly into standard alcoves, while others have room for larger, deeper soaking designs. We take precise measurements to ensure we find the absolute perfect match for your home.
On top of that, we walk you through all the options like inward-opening doors versus outward-opening doors. This matters because outward doors allow for much easier transfers if you use a wheelchair. We help you weigh these choices so you get the exact utility you need.
Perhaps you are wondering how we actually get this massive piece of equipment into your home. Fortunately, our seasoned crew has perfected this process down to a science. We protect your floors, carefully remove your old heavy cast-iron or fiberglass basin, and prep the drain lines.
Following that step, we level the new unit and secure it to your wall studs for maximum stability. This part of the job requires serious precision because a heavy basin filled with water needs solid support. Our team handles the heavy lifting so you do not have to stress about a thing.
Finally, we run comprehensive tests on the seals and the plumbing connections to guarantee zero leaks. This attention to detail ensures your subfloors stay dry and protected for decades to come. Once we clean up our workspace, your new personal oasis is fully ready for action.
Living in our lovely community of 12,932 residents means you deserve top-tier local service. We love serving our neighbors here in New Carrollton, Maryland, where the median household income sits around $65,164. We know the local housing stock well, especially the classic homes around the local ZIP codes that often feature outdated, cramped bathrooms.
Because we operate right in your backyard, we can arrive quickly to provide your home evaluation. This local focus means we understand the specific building codes and permit requirements of our county. You get a hassle-free project that is done right the first time, completely up to code.
Before making a decision, you should think about your long-term physical needs and how your mobility might change. Planning ahead now saves you from having to do another remodel down the road. It is always smarter to build in more safety features than you currently think you need.
Additionally, you must consider your home's water heater capacity because these deep basins hold more water than standard tubs. Sometimes, upgrading to a larger tank or a tankless system is a smart move to ensure you never run out of warm water. We evaluate your current water system during our visit to let you know if any tweaks are needed.
Of course, we also look at your bathroom door widths to plan the path of entry for the new unit. Sometimes we need to temporarily remove trim, but we always put everything back exactly how we found it. We believe in leaving your home cleaner than it was when we arrived.
Now is the perfect time to stop worrying about bathroom slips and start enjoying your daily bath again. Why wait for an accident to happen when you can take proactive control of your safety today? Our friendly team is ready to answer all your questions and design the perfect solution for your space.
Simply reach out to us to schedule your no-obligation home estimate. We will sit down with you, measure your bathroom, and give you a clear, honest price. Let us help you reclaim your independence and bring peace of mind back to your home routine!
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 New Carrollton.
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.
