Walk In Safely, Don't Risk The Climb
You shouldn’t have to risk a dangerous fall every time you want to shower. Your Calverton bathroom should work for you, not against you—especially as you get older.
That’s exactly what happens when we convert your existing bathtub into a walk-in shower. No more stepping over that treacherous 18-inch tub wall. No more white-knuckling the grab bar while you swing your leg over wet surfaces.
Instead, you get safe, easy access through a custom-cut opening that’s perfectly sized for your specific needs. The same shower space you’ve always had, just without the barrier that’s been turning your daily routine into a safety hazard.
Professional Tub Replacement Calverton, NY
Three Decades Of Getting It Right The First Time
We’ve been serving Calverton, NY and Long Island homeowners for over 30 years. We’re a family-owned business that understands what matters to local residents: quality work, fair pricing, and getting the job done when we say we will.
While other companies might take weeks or months to complete your bathtub replacement project, we typically finish tub to shower conversions in just one day. That’s because we’ve perfected our process through thousands of installations across Suffolk County homes just like yours.
You’re not just hiring contractors—you’re working with neighbors who’ve built our reputation on treating every Calverton home like it’s our own. When your median age is nearly 60, bathroom safety isn’t just a luxury—it’s essential.
Bathtub To Shower Conversion Process
Simple Process, Professional Results Every Time
We start with precise measurements of your existing bathtub. This isn’t guesswork—we measure exactly where the cut needs to be made to create the safest, most comfortable entry point for your specific situation and mobility needs.
Next, we carefully cut a section of your tub wall using professional-grade tools that ensure clean, precise edges without damaging your bathroom. The opening is then fitted with a custom-made panel that becomes structurally part of your tub—not just a flimsy cover-up that might fail later.
Finally, we install strategically positioned grab bars and convenient handheld shower fixtures for maximum safety and independence. The entire bathtub to shower conversion typically takes just a few hours, and you can safely use your new walk-in shower the same day.

Calverton Accessible Shower Solutions
What Every Calverton Conversion Includes
Every tub to shower conversion includes professional-grade safety features designed specifically for Calverton, NY homeowners. We install slip-resistant surfaces, properly positioned grab bars, and convenient handheld shower heads that make bathing safer and more comfortable for people of all ages and mobility levels.
Given Calverton’s demographics—with a median age of nearly 60 and many residents choosing to age in place—we understand that accessibility isn’t just about convenience. It’s about maintaining independence and dignity in your own home for years to come.
That’s why we don’t use cheap, one-size-fits-all inserts that might not fit your specific tub or safety needs. Instead, each bathtub replacement is custom-measured and fitted on-site to match your exact specifications. The result looks like it was always part of your original bathroom design, not an obvious modification that screams “medical equipment.”
How long does a tub to shower conversion take to complete?
Most tub to shower conversions in Calverton, NY are completed in just one day, typically within 3-4 hours from start to finish. We arrive in the morning, take final measurements, make the precise cut, install the custom-fitted panel and safety features, and clean up completely before we leave.
You can use your new walk-in shower the same day. There’s no waiting for materials to cure or dry, no multiple contractor visits, and no living without your bathroom for days or weeks like you’d experience with a full bathroom remodel.
The key is our preparation work. We measure everything during the initial consultation and prepare your custom components in advance, so when installation day arrives, we have everything needed to complete the job efficiently and professionally.
Will the conversion look obvious or match my existing bathroom?
The bathtub to shower conversion is designed to look like it was always part of your original Calverton bathroom. We custom-match the panel color to your existing tub, and our installation process makes the panel structurally part of the tub itself—not an obvious add-on.
Most visitors to your home won’t even notice the modification unless you point it out. The cut edges are professionally finished with smooth, sealed surfaces, and the panel integration is completely seamless. We’ve been perfecting this process for over 30 years, so we know exactly how to make it look right.
This isn’t like those obvious medical grab bars or institutional-looking accessibility equipment. It’s a professional bathroom improvement that happens to make your shower much safer to use while maintaining your home’s aesthetic appeal.
What if I want to reverse the conversion later?
The tub to shower conversion can be completely reversed if your needs change. We save the cut-out section of your bathtub during the installation process, and we can restore the tub to its exact original condition if circumstances require it.
The restoration process makes it look like the conversion never happened—no visible seams, patches, or repairs. This flexibility gives Calverton homeowners peace of mind, especially if they’re concerned about future resale value or changing family situations.
However, most of our local customers find the improved safety and accessibility so valuable that reversal becomes unnecessary. The conversion typically adds to home value rather than detracting from it, especially given our area’s aging population and the growing demand for accessible bathrooms.
How much does a tub to shower conversion cost compared to full bathroom remodel?
A tub to shower conversion typically costs a fraction of what you’d pay for a full bathroom remodel in the Calverton, NY area. While complete bathroom renovations can run $15,000-$30,000 or more, our conversions usually cost significantly less while delivering most of the safety benefits.
The exact cost depends on your specific tub configuration, size, and the safety features you want included. We provide transparent, upfront pricing during the consultation with no hidden costs or surprise charges later—something that’s often not the case with major renovation contractors.
Most Calverton homeowners find the conversion gives them 80% of the safety and accessibility benefits of a full remodel at roughly 20% of the cost. Plus, you avoid the weeks of disruption, construction mess, and daily inconvenience that comes with major bathroom renovation projects.
Is this safe for elderly residents or people with mobility issues?
Safety is exactly why most of our Calverton, NY customers choose this bathtub replacement option. Instead of stepping over a dangerous 18-inch tub wall, you’ll have a comfortable 4-inch step-through opening that’s much easier and safer to navigate, even with mobility challenges.
We install professional-grade grab bars positioned for optimal support based on your height and mobility needs, slip-resistant surfaces that provide secure footing, and convenient handheld shower heads that eliminate dangerous reaching or stretching during bathing.
Given that Calverton’s median age is nearly 60, we understand the critical importance of bathroom safety for residents who want to age in place. The conversion allows people to maintain their independence and dignity while dramatically reducing the risk of bathroom falls—the leading cause of home injuries for older adults.
Do you work with fiberglass, acrylic, and cast iron tubs?
Yes, we successfully convert all tub materials commonly found in Calverton, NY homes, including fiberglass, acrylic, steel, and cast iron bathtubs. Our process adapts to different tub types and configurations, which is why we do precise measurements during the consultation rather than guessing.
Each material requires specific cutting techniques and finishing approaches, but we have over 30 years of experience working with every type of tub found in local homes. Whether your bathtub is original to a 1960s ranch house or part of a recent bathroom update, we can safely convert it without damage.
The custom-fitted panels we install are engineered to work structurally with your specific tub material, ensuring a long-lasting, reliable conversion that won’t fail, leak, or deteriorate over time like cheaper, generic solutions might.
