How much does it cost to turn your tub into a shower?
Plain answers on what sets the price of a tub-to-shower conversion in Orlando, FL, and how to get your own number.
Climbing over the tub wall has started to feel like work, and a shower you can step into sounds right. Before you call anyone in Orlando, though, you want to know if it fits your budget. That is a fair thing to want, and there is a reason the real number only comes after someone sees your bathroom.
The cost is hard to pin down online because no two tub spaces are the same. A tub-to-shower conversion takes out the tub and puts a low-threshold Jacuzzi® shower in its place. The work covers only that wet area. Your floors and vanity are not part of it. So the price comes down to the shower you choose and the space it fills, not a whole new bathroom.
A few things move the price most. One is the size and layout of your tub space. Others are the base, the wall style and finish, and the fixture finish you pick. Extras like a seat, shelves or grab bars add to it too. For a sense of the choices, one 2024 shower replacement in Orlando paired smooth Midnight Storm walls with Matte Black fixtures. As for time, installs take in as little as one day, and some take a second day, rarely.
This week, jot down what matters most to you. Maybe it is a seat, a grab bar or a certain fixture color. Then call Love Your Bath and set up the free design visit. Every shower is quoted in the home, so this is where your real number comes from. Ask everyone who owns the home to be there. Trish D. from Orlando wrote, "The free in home design consultation was very informative and fun". Skip guessing from photos online. Your own space sets the price.
Once you have the quote, you know the number for your bathroom, with the shower and the installation both in it. You can think it over at your own pace. If you go ahead, the tub wall you climb over today becomes a low step into a shower, with a seat or grab bars right where you want them.
What people in Orlando say
"We converted our garden tub to a huge walk-in shower. The men who did the conversion were very good. Matt and Philip were professional, efficient, and friendly. They did an excellent job. They were respectful of our property and made certain we were happy with their work before they left. So happy with our new shower."
"Our experience with Jacuzzi was very professional, no pressure, and up front open communication with all points covered. Pricing was very competative and the sales rep did not play any games. The product is superior to another bath we changed and less expensive. We should have called Jacuzzi the first time."
"We had a great experience with Love your bath. Theykept me updated on when materials would be here and scheduled my install as soon as the knew it arrived. David H the installer was on time, very professional and pleasant he was very neat put cloths down on the floor and covered the counters. He completed the install on time. Love the shower install, they may be a bit higher than other companies, but you can’t beat the lifetime warranty and it’s transferable. Highly recommended!!"
Other things people in Orlando ask
is it a good idea to convert a tub to a shower
Think about who uses the bathroom today and in the next few years. A walk-in shower is easier and safer to step into. A tub matters more to families with small children. If the home has another tub, converting one is rarely a problem. Our designer will talk it through with you before you decide.
