Why Convert a Tub to a Shower?
Many Boston homes have outdated bathtub-shower combos that are hard to step into and even harder to clean. Converting to a walk-in shower not only modernizes the look of your bathroom but also significantly improves safety and usability.
- check Improved Accessibility: Remove the high barrier of a tub wall for safer entry and exit.
- check Easier Cleaning: No more leaning over a tub to scrub corners.
- check Spacious Feel: Walk-in showers make small bathrooms feel more open and airy.

Custom tile walls and floors for a premium look.

Cost Drivers in Boston
The cost of a conversion depends on the materials chosen (tile vs. stone), the type of glass enclosure (frameless is more premium), the need for plumbing relocation, and the condition of the subfloor once the tub is removed.
