Tub Conversion Process Holbrook
One Day, Zero Drama
First, we measure your existing tub space and discuss what you want from your new shower. We’ll show you glass door options, explain the process, and give you a detailed quote that covers everything.
Installation day starts with protecting your floors and surrounding areas. We remove your old tub, prepare the space, and install your new shower base and walls. Everything is custom-fitted to your specific measurements – no generic, one-size-fits-all inserts.
The final step is installing your custom glass shower door. We test everything, clean up completely, and walk you through your new shower. Most conversions are finished and ready to use by the end of the day.

Holbrook Bathroom Conversion Details
What You Actually Get
Your tub to shower conversion includes everything needed for a complete transformation. We install a new shower base, waterproof wall system, and custom glass door – all designed to fit your existing space perfectly.
For Holbrook homeowners, this means no structural changes to your bathroom. We work within your current plumbing and electrical setup, which keeps costs down and installation time to a minimum. The materials we use are specifically chosen to handle Long Island’s humidity and temperature changes.
You also get grab bars, a handheld shower head, and slip-resistant flooring as standard. These aren’t expensive add-ons – they’re part of creating a shower that’s actually safer and more functional than what you had before.
How long does a tub to shower conversion take in Holbrook?
Most tub to shower conversions in Holbrook are completed in a single day. We start in the morning and typically have you using your new shower by evening.
The exact timing depends on your specific bathroom layout and any unexpected issues we might find once we remove the old tub. However, we’ve been doing this for over 20 years, so surprises are rare.
We protect your home during the process and clean up completely when we’re done. You won’t have a construction zone in your bathroom for weeks – just one day of work and you’re back to your normal routine.
What does a bathtub to shower conversion cost on Long Island?
Tub to shower conversions in the Holbrook area typically start around $1,795 for a basic conversion with all necessary components included. The final cost depends on the glass door style you choose and any additional features you want.
This is significantly less expensive than a full bathroom remodel, which can cost $15,000 or more. You get a completely transformed bathroom for a fraction of the cost because we’re working with your existing plumbing and space.
We provide detailed quotes that break down exactly what’s included, so there are no surprises. Most homeowners find the investment pays for itself through increased home value and the daily convenience of a properly functioning shower.
Will a shower conversion work with my existing Holbrook home plumbing?
Yes, our tub to shower conversions are designed to work with your current plumbing setup. We don’t need to move pipes or make major structural changes to your bathroom.
The new shower base connects to the same drain as your old tub, and we use the existing water supply lines. This is why we can complete most installations in a single day – we’re not rebuilding your bathroom from scratch.
Before we start any work, we’ll assess your specific plumbing situation and let you know if there are any issues that need to be addressed. In our 20+ years serving Long Island, we’ve rarely encountered situations where the existing plumbing couldn’t support the conversion.
Are walk-in showers safer than bathtubs for older adults?
Walk-in showers are significantly safer than traditional bathtubs, especially for older adults or anyone with mobility concerns. The biggest safety improvement is eliminating the high step-over required to get into a bathtub.
Our shower conversions include grab bars, slip-resistant flooring, and handheld shower heads as standard features. These aren’t expensive add-ons – they’re built into every installation because safety is the primary reason most people make this change.
For Holbrook residents who are aging in place, this conversion often means the difference between staying in their home safely and needing to consider other living arrangements. It’s an investment in independence that pays dividends every single day.
Do I need permits for a tub to shower conversion in Holbrook?
Most tub to shower conversions in Holbrook don’t require permits because we’re not changing your bathroom’s footprint or moving plumbing lines. We’re essentially replacing fixtures in the same location.
However, permit requirements can vary depending on the specific work being done and local regulations. We’ll let you know during our initial consultation if your particular situation requires any permits.
When permits are needed, we handle the application process for you. We’ve been working in Holbrook and throughout Long Island for over 20 years, so we know the local requirements and have established relationships with the relevant departments.
What happens to my old bathtub during the conversion?
We remove your old bathtub completely and dispose of it properly as part of our service. This includes disconnecting it from the plumbing, cutting it into manageable pieces if necessary, and hauling it away from your property.
The removal process is done carefully to avoid damage to your bathroom walls or flooring. We use protective coverings throughout your home to prevent any mess or damage during the removal and installation process.
You don’t need to worry about disposal fees or finding someone to haul away the old tub. It’s all included in our service, and we leave your home cleaner than we found it. Most homeowners are surprised how much more spacious their bathroom feels once that bulky old tub is gone.
