What goes into the price of swapping a shower for a tub?
Cost factors for a shower-to-tub conversion in Sanford, FL, explained without the sales talk.
You have a walk-in shower or an old shower stall, and you want a tub again, maybe for bath time with the kids or for the day you sell. Before you call anyone, you want to know what moves the price. Here is that answer for a home in Sanford, in Seminole County.
Think of the job as a swap in one spot. The shower and its walls come out, and a Jacuzzi® tub goes in with a new surround. You choose how it looks. Because the work stays in the wet area, the floor, vanity and lights are left as they are. That keeps the job much smaller than redoing the whole bathroom.
The price comes from the space and your picks. A bigger or oddly shaped space can change it. So can the tub style, the base, the wall style and finish, and the fixture finish, whether that is Matte Black or Brushed Nickel. Extras such as a seat, shelves or grab bars add to it. There is no fair price until someone has seen the room.

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.
do i need a permit to change a tub to a shower
