Walk-In Showers in St. Augustine: An Easy Step In
How a walk-in shower works in a St. Augustine, FL home, what the price depends on, and what the visit is like.
Maybe you walk the brick streets downtown with no trouble, yet the step into your own tub has started to feel tall. Or you are planning ahead for a parent in St. Augustine. A walk-in shower trades that climb for a low, easy step in, with a seat and a bar to hold.
A walk-in shower here is a Jacuzzi® shower system with a low or barrier-free entry. You pick the walls, the base and the fixture finish, then add a built-in seat and grab bars where they help. Shelves can be added too, along with the seat. In St. Augustine, the jobs come to three: one shower replacement, one bathtub replacement and one walk-in tub. The shower, done in 2025, has smooth Sandshell Beige walls and Chrome fixtures. Since tubs and showers are both part of the work, you can weigh either one for your home before you decide.
St. Augustine was founded in 1565 and is the oldest continuously inhabited European-founded city in the contiguous U.S. It is the St. Johns County seat, home to the Castillo de San Marcos, its 17th-century Spanish fort, and to brick streets downtown. The median age is 48.7. None of that tells you how your own bathroom is laid out, so check a few things. Is the tub the only shower? Does anyone need to sit to wash? Where would a grab bar help?
A walk-in shower is quoted in your home after the space is seen. The price rests on whether you want a shower or a tub, the size and layout of the space, the base, the wall style and finish, the fixture finish, and add-ons like a seat, shelves or grab bars. Product and install are both in that quote. Floors, vanities and the rest of the room stay out of it. Installs take as little as one day. A second day is needed rarely.
It starts with a call to Love Your Bath to set a time. All homeowners are asked to be at the design visit. The designer listens, then builds a custom plan with options and a free quote. Ask anything you want while the designer is there. Beayteza V. called Derrick Pemberton "a great Design Consultant and friendly." Once you pick colors and safety features, an install date is set. On the last day, the crew goes over every detail with you.
Afterward, the morning routine gets easier. You step in without lifting a leg over a tub wall, sit if you like, and keep a hand on a bar. Giana S. wrote that David H. "did an awesome job installing our new walk-in shower." The grout-free walls help reduce mold and mildew buildup, too. The questions below cover cost, tub removal and other options in more detail.
Common questions about walk-in showers in St. Augustine
What people in St. Augustine say
"David H. was very professional and did an awesome job installing our new walk-in shower."
"Was professional from beginning to end. The sales rep was knowledgeable about his product. From there the company stayed in regular contact with me advising of timelines with product ordering, permits, etc. Once the installation date was set, a wonderful installer named Angie came and completed the demo and installation single handedly. She was professional, neat and obviously experienced in what she was doing. The company even went over and above driving to a distribution center in Orlando early morning to pick up a special drain needed for my installation to be completed on time. All in all I would recommend this company to anyone looking to remodel."
