Shower-to-Tub Conversion in St. Augustine: Soak Again
How turning a shower into a soaking tub works in St. Augustine, FL, from the first visit to the finished walls.
If you live in St. Augustine and keep wishing for a bath instead of a quick shower, you are not being picky. Maybe a soak is how you like to end the day, or small children are around more often now. Either way, the stall shower you have does not fit the way you live.
St. Augustine, founded in 1565, is the oldest continuously inhabited European-founded city in the contiguous U.S. Your bathroom does not need to be anywhere near that old for this job to make sense. A shower-to-tub conversion takes out the shower and sets a genuine Jacuzzi® tub in the same spot. Then a new wall surround goes up in the style you choose. You pick the wall type and color, the base and the fixture finish. Past work here includes a walk-in tub with Windstorm walls and a bathtub replacement with Chrome fixtures, both in 2025.
The median age in St. Augustine is 48.7 years. Whatever your own age, think about getting in and out of a tub ten years from now, not just today. A tub can come with slip-resistant surfaces, grab bars and built-in seating. If stepping over any tub wall is already hard, a walk-in tub with a low-threshold entry and an easy-to-open door may suit you better. Maria C. wrote that her designer helped her be "safe while enjoying a tub bath."
There is no flat price, because no two bathrooms are the same. The quote depends on the size and layout of the shower space, the tub you choose, the base, and the wall style and finish. Your fixture finish counts, and so do extras like a seat, shelves or grab bars. For a walk-in tub, the tub size and the features you add make the difference. The free quote covers the product and the installation, and the work stays in the wet area.
It starts with a visit at your home, and all homeowners are asked to be there. The designer listens to what you want and builds a custom plan with options and a free quote. You choose the colors, finishes and safety features. Next, a Love Your Bath crew puts in the tub and the walls. Installation is done mainly by their own crews, so one company is accountable from start to finish. Then you run your first bath.
When it is done, you have a tub you can ease into at the end of the day. The walls are a color you picked, and the grab bars sit where you wanted them. If cost, permits or resale are still on your mind, each has its own answer below.
