First, we come out and measure everything. Your existing plumbing, your space, your specific needs. No guesswork, no surprises later.
Next, we remove your old tub and prep the area. This includes any necessary plumbing adjustments and waterproofing to make sure everything’s done right the first time.
Then we install your new shower base, walls, and door system. We use high-quality materials that are built to last, not the cheap stuff that starts looking shabby in two years. Everything gets sealed properly, tested for leaks, and cleaned up before we leave.

Walk-in Shower Installation Old Field
Every tub to shower conversion includes removal of your existing tub, professional installation of a new shower base, waterproof wall system, and quality glass doors. We handle all the plumbing connections and make sure everything meets local codes.
In Old Field, we see a lot of homes from the 1950s and 60s with original cast iron tubs and tile surrounds. These conversions often free up 6-8 square feet of usable bathroom space, which makes a real difference in these classic home layouts.
You can add grab bars, built-in seating, or custom storage niches. We also offer low-threshold or curbless options for better accessibility. The whole project typically takes one day, and you can use your new shower the same evening.
How much does a tub to shower conversion cost in Old Field, NY?
Most tub to shower conversions in Old Field run between $3,000 and $8,000, depending on the materials you choose and any plumbing modifications needed. A basic conversion with a quality acrylic base and walls starts around $3,500.
Custom tile work or moving plumbing lines will increase the cost, but most of our Old Field customers stay in the $4,000 to $6,000 range. We give you an exact quote upfront, so you know what you’re paying before we start. No hidden fees or surprise charges later.
Will converting my tub to a shower hurt my home value?
Actually, it usually helps. Tub to shower conversions typically have a 60-74% return on investment, as long as you have another bathtub somewhere else in your home. Most buyers today prefer walk-in showers, especially in master bathrooms.
In Old Field’s market, updated bathrooms are a big selling point. Buyers want to see modern, low-maintenance spaces that don’t need immediate work. An outdated tub/shower combo can actually make your whole bathroom look dated, even if everything else is in good shape.
How long does a tub to shower conversion take?
Most of our conversions are completed in one day. We start early, remove your old tub, make any necessary plumbing adjustments, and install your new shower system all in the same day.
More complex jobs that require moving plumbing or extensive tile work might take two days. But you won’t have weeks of construction mess like you would with a full bathroom remodel. We clean up completely when we’re done, and you can use your new shower that evening.
Can you make the shower accessible for elderly family members?
Absolutely. We install low-threshold and curbless showers all the time for families who want better accessibility. These eliminate the step-over entirely, making it much safer for anyone with mobility concerns.
We can also add grab bars, built-in seating, and handheld shower heads. Many Old Field families are dealing with aging parents or planning ahead for their own needs. These features don’t look medical or institutional – they just look like smart design choices that happen to be safer.
Do you handle all the plumbing work during the conversion?
Yes, we take care of all the plumbing connections and any necessary modifications. This includes relocating the shower valve if needed, adjusting drain connections, and making sure water pressure is optimized for your new shower head.
We’re licensed for all the plumbing work involved in shower conversions. If your project requires major plumbing changes, like moving the drain location significantly, we’ll let you know upfront so there are no surprises. Most conversions use the existing plumbing locations, which keeps costs down.
What kind of maintenance does a new shower require?
Much less than your old tub. Modern shower materials are designed to be low-maintenance. Acrylic and solid surface walls just need a quick wipe-down with regular bathroom cleaner.
Glass doors might need occasional treatment with a water repellent product to prevent water spots, but that’s maybe twice a year. No more scrubbing grout lines or dealing with soap scum buildup in hard-to-reach corners. Most of our customers say cleaning their new shower takes about one-third the time their old tub did.
