A tub-to-shower conversion with us runs $23,000 to $28,000 and takes 3 to 4 weeks on site. That buys a new waterproofed walk-in shower with glass where the old tub was, built to the studs, with licensed plumbing. We do this work across Largo, Clearwater, Dunedin, Palm Harbor, Belleair, Seminole, Indian Rocks Beach, Madeira Beach and St. Pete Beach.
Every number here matches our bathroom remodeling page.
What Is Included
- The tub and surround removed and the walls opened to the studs.
- A real waterproofing system behind the tile and a shower pan sloped to the drain.
- A new shower valve and trim, moved if the layout needs it.
- Tile walls and floor, and a glass enclosure.
- Every shower we build is covered by our 5-year leak-free guarantee.
What Changes the Price
- Curbless, no-step entry adds $2,500 and up for the floor work it needs.
- A recessed niche runs $350, and a built-in bench $400.
- A vent fan where there is none today adds $800.
- Tile and glass choices. Large-format tile and heavier glass cost more to buy and to install.
Should You Keep a Tub?
If this is the only tub in the house and you plan to sell in the next few years, think about who buys homes on your street. Families with small children often want one tub. If you are staying, or there is a tub in another bathroom, a walk-in shower is the more useful room every day. We will tell you what we see at the consultation.
Permits
Moving a drain or a shower valve needs a permit. We pull it with the city, town or county that covers your address and build the inspection days into the schedule.
