The WaKeeney crew we send takes the old bathtub out, seals the new door in and tests it full, all over Trego 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.
Safe bathing setups with low step-in thresholds let you enjoy your daily wash without any scary slips. You do not have to worry about losing your balance on slick porcelain anymore. Because of this, staying independent in your own home becomes a breeze.
Maybe you feel a bit nervous every time you step over that high barrier of your current setup. Honestly, that is totally normal because standard setups are downright hazardous for folks with stiff joints. Our local crew helps you swap that old hazard for a secure, leak-free basin that features a swinging door.
By getting a free quote from our team, you can plan this project without any stress. We come right to your house to measure your space and explain the process. This lets you make an smart choice without spending a single dime upfront.
Traditional deep basins require you to perform a balancing act on one wet foot. To make things worse, slick surfaces wait on the other side of that high wall. This dangerous setup causes thousands of nasty falls every year among homeowners.
Installing a leak-proof swinging door basin solves this issue by letting you walk right inside. Once you step over a tiny three-inch threshold, you simply shut the door and seal it tight. After that, you sit down on a raised, slip-resistant seat that keeps you stable.
On top of these safety features, these units offer deep soaking depths that soothe sore muscles. You get to submerge your torso in warm water while sitting upright. Which means you get the therapeutic benefits of a hot tub right inside your private bathroom.
To help you visualize how these units compare to standard setups, here is a quick breakdown of what you get:
| Feature | Standard Setups | Our Secure Sealed Units |
|---|---|---|
| Step-In Height | 14 to 18 inches | Under 4 inches |
| Seating | None (must lie down) | Contoured, raised bench |
| Safety Grab Bars | Rarely built-in | Integrated heavy-duty bars |
| Drainage Speed | Slow gravity drain | Fast-pump assist options |
Many folks worry that their current plumbing cannot handle a new accessible hydrotherapy unit. Luckily, our experienced technicians know exactly how to retro-fit these advanced systems into existing spaces. We carefully evaluate your hot water tank to ensure you have enough capacity for a deep soak.
Sometimes your pipes need a little bit of upgrading to allow rapid draining. This matters because you do not want to sit shivering while waiting for the water to empty out. Our high-speed drain systems pull water out of the basin in under two minutes.
Additionally, we inspect your floor joists to guarantee they can support the weight of a filled unit. Since these structures hold a lot of water, sturdy support underneath is absolutely critical. We reinforce the subfloor if we find any soft spots or old water damage.
Every home has a unique layout, which is why we offer several door configurations. You can choose a door that swings inward to save bathroom floor space. Alternatively, outward-swinging doors offer the easiest entry for wheelchair transfers.
Besides the door style, you can select models with heated backrests to keep you warm during the fill-up. This extra warmth keeps you cozy while the basin fills around you. It is a simple feature that turns a regular bath into a luxurious retreat.
For those who struggle with cold hands, easy-turn lever faucets make adjusting the temperature effortless. You will not have to struggle with stiff knobs that hurt your grip. Every detail is designed to make your routine as smooth as possible.
Our team works fast because we know you need your bathroom back in working order. Typically, we can remove your old basin and install the new secure system in just a couple of days. We protect your floors with drop cloths to keep your home clean throughout the project.
First, we carefully demolish the old cast iron or acrylic structure without damaging your walls. Next, we run new plumbing lines and align the drain precisely with the new unit. After leveling the new frame, we connect all the secure seals and test them thoroughly.
Finally, we finish the surrounding wall area with waterproof panels that match your style. This creates a clean, seamless look that keeps moisture from getting behind your walls. You get a beautiful, functional space that looks like it belongs in a high-end lodge.

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 WaKeeney.
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.
