Replacing your shower involves a few key variables that change the total. The biggest factor is the scope of the demo—whether we are just updating the hardware or removing an old tub entirely. Your choice of materials, like tile versus acrylic, and the complexity of the plumbing adjustments behind the walls also shift the bottom line. Adding features like built-in seating, safety grab bars, or specialized showerheads will adjust your investment accordingly.
Our installation process involves tearing out the old unit, prepping the subfloor, and installing a modern, walk-in system. This is a great choice if you are looking to improve bathroom accessibility or simply want a more modern aesthetic. Because every home is different, costs change based on your specific material choices and demolition needs.
