Ready for the bathtub to go and a walk-in shower to take its spot?
What removing a tub for a walk-in shower involves in Vero Beach, FL, and what the quote depends on.
You stand in the tub to shower, and stepping over that side has stopped feeling safe. You picture a shower you can simply walk into. Whether you are near Riverside Park, off State Road 60 or out toward A1A, the questions are the same in Vero Beach: what does the job take, and what will it cost?
Taking out a tub for a walk-in shower is what installers call a tub-to-shower conversion. The tub is removed, and a Jacuzzi® shower base and walls go into the same opening. The front edge of the new base is low or barrier-free, so there is no wall to climb. Grab bars and a built-in seat can be added where they help. Diane L. called the finished walk-in shower "spectacular, far above what I imagined."
The job is limited to where the tub sits. The floor, the vanity and the rest of the bathroom are not part of it. What it costs depends on what you choose and the space you have: its size and layout, the base, the wall style and finish, the fixture finish, and extras like a seat, shelves or grab bars. Every conversion is quoted in your home, and that free quote covers the product and the installation.
This week, sit down and sketch out the shower you would like. Do you want a door, or an open entry? A seat? Bars on one wall or two? When the list feels complete, reach out to Love Your Bath to set a design visit at your Vero Beach home. A designer comes over, listens to your wants, and builds a custom plan with options and a free quote. The company asks that all homeowners be present for it. If sales pressure worries you, Marti K. wrote that "The sales process was no pressure."
Afterward, you walk where you used to climb. One 2024 Vero Beach shower replacement has herringbone Alabaster walls, Matte Black fixtures and no door at all, just an open way in. Installs take as little as one day, and some jobs run into a second day, so your bathroom is back in use soon.
What people in Vero Beach say
"Just had our walk in shower done by Love Your Bath, it is spectacular, far above what I imagined. Jose Castro was our installer and he is the best. He was meticulous, cleaned up after, and kept things on track as he and his helper kept the project going. The shower is just beautiful and I don’t have to clean grout anymore. Thank you Jose and Love Your Bath for a job well done. Could not be more pleased. Diane L."

Other things people in Vero Beach ask
alternative to a walk-in tub for the elderly
The most common alternatives are a walk-in shower with a low or barrier-free entry, a tub-to-shower conversion, and adding a built-in seat and grab bars. Each one removes the climb over the tub wall. A designer can show you all of them side by side at home and quote the one that fits.
least expensive way to replace a shower
The lowest-cost way to get a real new shower is to replace just the shower: a new base and wall system installed over a cleaned-out space, with no full gut. That is what we do with Jacuzzi® shower systems, and most jobs take as little as one day.
