Not sure a walk-in tub is right? Here are the other choices
Ways to skip the climb into the tub, including walk-in showers, for homes in Fort Pierce, FL.
Maybe you noticed it first, or maybe your son or daughter did: the slow, careful way you step over the tub wall now. You live in Fort Pierce, and the fix you keep hearing about is a walk-in tub. Before you decide, you want to know what else could work for you.
What makes a tub hard is the height of its side. To get in and out, you have to balance on one leg for a moment. A walk-in tub answers that with a door and a seat. Still, if you rarely take a bath, a tub with a door may be more than you need. There are other ways to get rid of that step over the wall. The right answer depends on how you like to bathe, not on what an ad shows.
The choices come down to three. A walk-in shower with a low or barrier-free entry. A tub-to-shower conversion, where the tub comes out and a shower takes its place. Or a built-in seat and grab bars in the shower you use. Each one is quoted in the home. What it costs depends on your space and what you pick, like the base, the walls, a seat or grab bars.
Spend a few days paying attention to how you bathe. Note where you reach for something to hold. Note whether you would rather sit. Then call Love Your Bath for a home visit. The designer comes to you, listens, and puts together a custom plan with options and a free quote. You pick the colors, finishes and safety features. Giana S. wrote that "David H. was very professional and did an awesome job installing our new walk-in shower."
Afterward, you step into the shower instead of over a wall. Installs take in as little as one day, and only rarely run to a second. One Fort Pierce shower replacement from 2025 has smooth Alabaster walls, Brushed Nickel fixtures and a dual bypass door. Yours is built from your own picks, down to the color of the base and the finish on the fixtures.
What people in Fort Pierce say
"David H. was very professional and did an awesome job installing our new walk-in shower."
"We are very pleased with the bathroom renovation done by Jodeci. This man did not even take a break for lunch and worked until 6 p.m. both nights he was here. Our renovation became more complicated due to the Cast iron bath tub and the age of our house. Jodeci didn't flinch just kept working. So glad we chose Love Your Bath"
"Cant say enough about the young lady that remodeled our shower. She was fantastic. Efficient, courteous, friendly, punctual and knew her job to a T. Wish she was available for any other projects I might desiderata to do. What an asset she is to her company and profession."

cost to remove a bathtub and make a walk-in shower
We take out the tub and put in a low-threshold or barrier-free shower in the same space, so you are not paying to move walls or plumbing in most homes. You pick the base, walls, seat and grab bars with a designer at home and get a free quote for the whole job.
least expensive way to replace a shower
The lowest-cost way to get a real new shower is to replace just the shower: a new base and wall system installed over a cleaned-out space, with no full gut. That is what we do with Jacuzzi® shower systems, and most jobs take as little as one day.
