Maybe you are wondering how a deep, seated basin with a sealed door actually fits into your existing layout.
Well, these specialized units are designed to slide directly into the footprint of your standard old five-foot basin.
This clever design saves you from having to tear down entire walls or reconfigure your whole floor plan.
Because of this smart engineering, the conversion process is surprisingly fast and clean.
Naturally, our crew takes care of matching the new drain locations with your current pipes to prevent any future headaches.
You get a seamless transition that looks like it was always meant to be there.
On top of that, we make sure the structural support underneath is rock solid before we seal anything.
Which means your new unit will never shift, squeak, or flex when you step inside.
Our local installers take great pride in doing this job once and doing it right.
To help you understand the different options we offer, here is a quick breakdown of what you can expect:
| System Feature | Concrete Benefit for You | Installation Complexity |
|---|---|---|
| Low-Step Entry | Eliminates tripping hazards completely | Standard integration |
| Contoured Seating | Allows you to sit upright safely while washing | Built into the mold |
| Hydrotherapy Jets | Soothes sore muscles and improves circulation | Requires electrical hookup |
| Fast-Drain Technology | You do not have to sit cold waiting for water to empty | Requires specialized plumbing |
When we talk about upgrading your washroom, we are focusing on heavy-duty fiberglass or acrylic shells reinforced with stainless steel frames.
These durable materials resist scratches and are incredibly easy to wipe down after each use.
This lets you spend less time scrubbing on your knees and more time relaxing.
Additionally, the door seals use pressure-molded silicone that actually gets tighter as the water level rises inside.
So you never have to worry about a single drop leaking onto your bathroom floor.
It is a foolproof system that keeps your home dry and safe from mold.
But what about the actual plumbing work required to feed these deep basins?
Usually, we need to upgrade your faucet valves to allow a faster flow rate so you are not waiting forever for the water to warm up.
We handle all of those behind-the-scenes adjustments during the setup process.
First, you need to think about whether you want air jets, water jets, or just a simple soaking setup.
Each option offers a different level of physical relief, especially for stiff joints and tired backs.
We help you choose the exact configuration that matches your daily routine.
Secondly, the placement of grab bars and handheld showerheads must be customized to your height and reach.
Which is why we measure everything carefully before securing any hardware to the walls.
You get a highly personalized setup tailored specifically to your body.
Lastly, we can install heated backrests that keep you warm while the basin is still filling up.
This simple addition makes a massive difference on chilly mornings.
You will feel cozy from the very second you step inside.
Now, let us talk about how we actually get this done in your home with minimal disruption.
First, we come out to look at your current setup and take precise measurements of your doorways and halls.
This ensures we can bring the new unit in without damaging your walls.
After that, we carefully remove your old heavy cast-iron or steel tub and dispose of it properly.
Then we inspect the subfloor for any hidden water damage or rot that needs fixing.
We never cover up a problem, ensuring your home remains structurally sound.
Finally, we secure the new unit, hook up the waste lines, and test every single seal twice.
This rigorous testing ensures you have absolutely zero leaks when we leave.
You can trust our attention to detail because we treat your home like our own.

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 Portland.
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.
