Shower-to-Tub Conversion in Rockledge: A Tub Where Your Shower Is

A shower-only bathroom can feel like it is missing something when grandkids come over, or when you just want a long soak. If you live in Rockledge, Brevard County's oldest city, this page walks through how a tub takes the place of your shower, start to finish.

Here is what the work looks like. The shower comes out of its space, and a new Jacuzzi® tub goes in, either a classic alcove tub or a deep-soaking tub. A new wall surround goes up around it. You pick the wall color and pattern, the base and the fixture finish. Grab bars, a slip-resistant surface and built-in seating can make the tub easier to get in and out of. In Rockledge, we have replaced three showers, and the looks ran wide: smooth Platinum walls with Chrome fixtures in 2025, and Champagne walls in a random stone pattern with a fold-down seat in 2023.

Rockledge sits along the Indian River and dates to 1887, which makes it the oldest city in Brevard County. Rockledge Drive is lined with century-old oaks and old homes. Neighborhoods like Virginia Park and Kings Grant were built from the 1960s to the 1980s. None of that sets the price on its own. What matters is your bathroom, so take a close look at the shower you have now: its size, its walls and how easy it is to step in and out.

Each tub is priced in your home, because no two bathrooms are alike. The size and layout of the space, the tub, the base, the wall style and finish, and the fixture finish all play a part. Extras such as shelves, a seat or grab bars add to it. You only pay for the wet area, the tub or shower space, not floors or cabinets. The free quote covers both the product and the installation.

It starts with a call to set up a design visit, with all homeowners there. A Love Your Bath designer listens to what you want and builds a custom plan with options and a free quote. Jeremiah S. wrote, "They really listened to our wants and went above and beyond to make us happy!" After that, you choose the tub, colors and fixtures. On install day, the crew removes the shower, sets the tub and puts up the new walls, in as little as one day, though some installs take a second day.

When it is finished, the bathroom has a tub again, and the rest of the room is just as you left it. The kids can splash, you can soak, and the new walls wipe clean. If you still wonder about cost, permits or whether the swap is wise, those answers are just below.
