Glass Shower Doors Huntington Station NY
Long Island Family Business You Can Trust
We’ve been serving Huntington Station families for decades at OMG Shower Doors. We’re not some big corporate chain that shows up, does the work, and disappears.
As a family-owned glass company, we understand what Long Island homeowners actually need. We’ve seen how many of the homes built in the 1960s have bathtubs that nobody uses anymore. We know the local contractors, the building codes, and what works in these older homes.
When you call us, you’re working with people who live here too. We’re the company your neighbors recommend because we show up when we say we will, do quality work, and stand behind what we install.

Bathroom Tub to Shower Conversion Options
Custom Solutions for Huntington Station Homes
Every tub to shower conversion we do in Huntington Station is custom-fitted to your space. We’re not using pre-made inserts that kind of fit – we’re creating a shower that works perfectly with your bathroom’s dimensions and your family’s needs.
For Huntington Station’s older homes, we often recommend low-threshold or barrier-free showers. These work especially well for the many residents approaching or over retirement age who want to stay in their homes safely. The median age here is over 40, and we see a lot of homeowners thinking ahead about accessibility.
We also handle the glass shower doors and enclosures that make these conversions look polished and professional. With property values averaging over $540,000 in Huntington Station, you want improvements that maintain and increase your home’s value, not detract from it.
How much does a tub to shower conversion cost in Huntington Station?
Most tub to shower conversions in Huntington Station start around $1,795 and go up depending on the size of your space and the features you want. This includes removing your old tub, any necessary plumbing adjustments, installing the new shower base and walls, and adding custom glass doors.
The exact cost depends on your current plumbing setup and what type of shower you want. A basic conversion with standard fixtures costs less than adding luxury features like multiple shower heads or built-in seating. We give you a detailed, written quote after seeing your space, so you know exactly what you’re paying for before we start any work.
Compare this to a full bathroom renovation, which typically runs $17,500 to $71,000 in the Long Island area. A conversion gives you the modern, functional bathroom you want at a fraction of the cost and disruption.
How long does a bathtub to shower conversion take?
Most tub to shower conversions are completed in one day. We start in the morning, remove your old tub, handle any plumbing modifications, install your new shower, and have everything ready for use by evening.
The timeline can extend to two days if we need to make significant plumbing changes or if you’re adding custom features. But even then, we make sure you have access to water and a functioning bathroom throughout the process.
We’re not like those contractors who start your job and then disappear for weeks. We schedule your conversion when we can complete it, and we show up when we say we will. Most of our Huntington Station customers are surprised at how quickly and cleanly the whole process goes.
Can you convert any bathtub to a shower?
Yes, we can convert virtually any bathtub to a shower, including the cast iron, steel, and fiberglass tubs common in Huntington Station’s older homes. Each conversion is custom-designed to work with your existing plumbing and bathroom layout.
For homes built in the 1960s – which is typical for this area – we often find that the existing plumbing can be reused with minor modifications. The key is having an experienced team that knows how to work with older systems and bring them up to current codes when necessary.
We’ve converted everything from small apartment-style tubs to large soaking tubs. The process is the same: we remove what’s there, modify the space as needed, and install a shower that fits perfectly and functions properly for decades.
Will a tub to shower conversion affect my home's resale value?
A well-done tub to shower conversion typically maintains or increases your home’s value, especially in Huntington Station where many potential buyers are looking for accessible, modern bathrooms. Most families today prefer showers over baths for daily use.
The key is doing the conversion professionally with quality materials and proper installation. A cheap, DIY-looking conversion can hurt your value, but a custom shower with proper glass enclosures looks like an intentional design choice that enhances the space.
Given that the median home value in Huntington Station is over $540,000, you want any improvement to meet the quality standards buyers expect in this market. We use the same materials and techniques as high-end bathroom renovations, just focused specifically on the tub-to-shower conversion.
Do you handle the plumbing and permits for conversions?
Yes, we handle all the plumbing modifications needed for your conversion, and we take care of any required permits. Most tub to shower conversions don’t require major permit work since we’re using the existing plumbing location, but we make sure everything meets local building codes.
Our team includes licensed plumbers who know Suffolk County requirements and the specific challenges of working with older homes in Huntington Station. We handle the rough plumbing, the finish plumbing, and the final inspections if needed.
You don’t need to coordinate between multiple contractors or worry about whether the work meets code. We take responsibility for the entire project from start to finish, including any follow-up if inspectors have questions or requirements.
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 cutting it out if necessary – cast iron and steel tubs from older Huntington Station homes sometimes need to be cut into pieces to get them out through doorways.
We handle all the debris removal and cleanup, so you don’t have a bathtub sitting in your driveway or need to arrange for disposal yourself. Our team comes prepared with the tools and equipment to remove any type of tub safely and efficiently.
The removal process is typically the messiest part of the job, but we use protective coverings and work carefully to avoid damage to your floors, walls, or other bathroom fixtures. By the end of the day, you won’t even know there was ever a tub in that space.
