Need a new shower but not a whole new bathroom?
A plain look at keeping a shower job small, for anyone weighing walk-in showers in Ocala, FL.
Your old shower is worn out, but the thought of weeks of torn-up tile in your Ocala home makes you put it off again. You want a real new shower and a clear idea of the job before anyone sets foot inside. The good news is that the work can stay inside the shower itself, without touching the rest of the room.
What you are really asking is how small the job can be. A full remodel pulls up floors, swaps the vanity and strips the walls, and each of those steps adds days and more trades. Replacing only the shower is a different job. The old shower comes out, and a new Jacuzzi® base and wall system goes into the same space. Your floor, sink and cabinets stay right where they are.
No honest price fits every shower, because no two bathrooms are the same. The price depends on what you pick and on your space: the size and layout of the shower, the base, the wall style and finish, the fixture finish, and extras like a seat, shelves or grab bars. The quote covers the product and the installation together. Most installs take as little as one day, and a second day is needed rarely.
This week, do not sign up for a full gut job just because the old tile looks rough. Instead, book a visit with Love Your Bath and say up front that you want to keep the job simple. A designer visits your Ocala home, listens to what you want, and builds a custom plan with options and a free quote. Plan the visit for a time when every homeowner can be there, since all owners are asked to join.
Once it is done, you have a new shower and the rest of the room looks just as you left it. You step in over a low entry, and the grout-free walls stay easy to clean. Elizabeth T. said it well: "Couldn't even tell that they worked in the bath was so clean when they left." We have replaced two showers and one bathtub in Ocala.

"Remodeled a walk-in shower stall. Job completed in 1 1/2 days. *** *. did a fabulous installation. Knowledgeable, experienced, courteous, efficient. Would recommend the company and this particular installer to anyone wishing bathroom remodeling work."
"Triston Saxton was the installer of our Jacuzzi shower system. He was phenomenal!! Though the job took one extra day, he was so kind and patient with explaining the reasons, he was also very neat and courteous while working. He even came back later to adjust the door after we had issues with it, after installation was completed. I would recommend Tristan and the team at Love Your Bath!"

Other things people in Ocala ask
alternative to a walk-in tub for the elderly
The most common alternatives are a walk-in shower with a low or barrier-free entry, a tub-to-shower conversion, and adding a built-in seat and grab bars. Each one removes the climb over the tub wall. A designer can show you all of them side by side at home and quote the one that fits.

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.
