The Princeville crew we send takes the old bathtub out, seals the new door in and tests it full, all over Peoria 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.
Every single day we take our mobility for granted until a simple task like stepping over a high porcelain barrier starts feeling like climbing Mount Everest. This is why we specialize in setting up those specialized, leak-free high-walled bathing units that let you just open a swing door, walk right inside, and sit down on a comfortable raised bench. If you are tired of slipping around on slick tiles or worrying about losing your balance, our team comes directly to your home to measure your space and hand you a complete price estimate without charging you a single dime.
Indeed, safety should never feel like a luxury that you cannot afford. By choosing to upgrade your washroom with a secure, low-threshold soaking system, you instantly protect yourself from the scary prospect of dangerous falls. This means you can keep living independently in the home you love for many years to come.
Naturally, we know that choosing the right setup can feel a bit overwhelming at first. Because of this, our friendly local technicians take the time to explain every single detail, from the hydrotherapy jets to the quick-drain technology, ensuring you get the exact setup you need.
When you decide to transition from a standard shower basin to an easy-access deep-soaking system, the actual logistics of the project require careful hands. First, we carefully extract your old heavy cast-iron or acrylic basin without destroying the surrounding drywall. After that, our professional team inspects the exposed subfloor to make sure no hidden water damage or mold will ruin your new investment.
Then, we upgrade your existing drain pipes and water lines to accommodate the rapid-fill faucets that these tall units require. Which means you will not have to sit there shivering while waiting for the warm water to rise. Finally, we slide the new heavy-duty fiberglass shell into place, leveling it perfectly so the watertight seal on the door functions exactly as it should.
To help you understand how this physical transformation works, here is a quick breakdown of what our team handles during the job:
| Installation Stage | What We Do | Your Concrete Benefit |
|---|---|---|
| Demolition | Careful removal of old tub and wall surrounds | No mess left behind for you to clean up |
| Plumbing Prep | Upgrading drains and installing high-flow valves | Fast filling and draining times |
| Shell Placement | Securing the leak-proof door unit and leveling | Zero leaks on your bathroom floor |
| Final Sealing | Applying commercial-grade silicone and trim | A beautiful, clean finish that lasts |
On top of that, we always make sure to clean up every speck of dust before we head out the door. This lets you enjoy your brand-new, secure washing area immediately without having to lift a broom.
Living in a cozy, close-knit community of about 2,073 residents means we look out for our neighbors. In this beautiful corner of Peoria County, many of our classic homes feature older, cramped bathrooms that were simply not designed with aging in place in mind. By upgrading your home with a secure, slip-resistant step-in basin, you are investing directly in your own physical freedom.
With a local median household income of around $56,250, we know that every dollar you spend on home improvements has to count. That is why we focus on durable, American-made products that do not require constant maintenance or expensive repairs down the road. We proudly serve everyone throughout the local ZIP code of 61559, bringing our mobile showroom right to your driveway.
Consequently, you do not have to drive out to a big box store to guess what might fit in your house. We bring the samples, the measurements, and the answers directly to your kitchen table, keeping the entire process relaxed and completely stress-free.
First and foremost, the built-in contoured seating inside these deep-soak systems prevents you from having to lower yourself all the way down to the floor. This minimizes the intense strain on your knees and hips, making your daily routine feel like a relaxing spa visit instead of a strenuous workout. Additionally, the heavy-duty grab bars are strategically bolted into the wall framing to give you solid leverage whenever you stand up.
Moreover, the non-slip textured floor pattern keeps your feet planted firmly even when the surface is covered in slick soapy water. This eliminates the need for those ugly, moldy rubber mats that never seem to stay in place anyway. To top it off, the extra-wide door opening allows you to swing your legs in and out without any awkward twisting.
Now, think about how much nicer it will be to wash away the day without a single worry in your mind. Our high-wall units provide the ultimate combination of security and deep-tissue relaxation through optional warm-water air jets.
Nobody wants to sit around in a cold, wet basin waiting forever for the water to empty out after a relaxing bath. Because of this, we install specialized high-capacity dual drains that pull the water out of the basin in under eighty seconds. This clever mechanism allows you to open the airtight door and step out onto your bathmat while you are still feeling nice and warm.
This lets you avoid the dreaded post-bath chill that often happens with standard plumbing setups. It is a simple feature, but it makes a massive difference in how much you will actually enjoy using your new system daily.
Perhaps you are worried about the door leaking and flooding your bathroom floor. To prevent this, our manufacturers use heavy-duty pressure seals that utilize the natural weight of the water to press the door gasket tighter against the frame. This smart design ensures a absolute watertight seal that is backed by a lifetime warranty, giving you total peace of mind.
So, you can splash around as much as you like without ever seeing a single drop of water escape onto your drywall. It is engineering at its finest, wrapped in a clean, modern package.
Since every single body is shaped differently, we do not believe in a one-size-fits-all approach to bathroom safety. For instance, we can install heated backrests that keep your upper body warm while the basin is still filling up with water. This luxurious touch keeps you cozy from the very second you sit down.
On top of that, you can choose from various aromatherapy and chromotherapy lighting options to turn your bathroom into a true sanctuary. These gentle, colored LED lights help soothe your mind and relax your eyes after a long, busy day. Which means your daily wash becomes the absolute highlight of your evening routine.
But wait, there is more! We also offer hand-held shower wand extensions that allow you to rinse your hair and wash hard-to-reach places without having to stand up or bend over. This puts you in complete control of your hygiene with minimal physical effort.
We realize that letting workers into your home can sometimes feel like a bit of an intrusion. Because we respect your space and your time, our installers always show up on time, lay down protective floor cloths, and treat your property with absolute respect. We do not use pushy sales tactics or try to force you into buying upgrades that you do not actually need.
Instead, we listen to your specific physical challenges and find a setup that fits both your body and your budget. We believe in old-school honesty, which is why our written estimates show the exact breakdown of labor and materials with zero hidden fees. What we quote you is exactly what you pay, plain and simple.
Ultimately, our goal is to make your home safer so you can live with confidence. If you are ready to explore your options, we are ready to drive out to your home in Princeville, Illinois, and help you plan this life-changing upgrade.

Our friendly team is standing by to answer your questions, look at your current plumbing layout, and design a custom solution just for you.

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 Princeville.
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.
