One number reaches the people who fit the tubs. Say what the bathroom is like and we take it from there.
(844) 578-1861Take your time on the phone. Who does the bathing, how they get around today, the size of the bathroom and the doorways on the way in: that is all we need to set a date for the visit.
If you need to make your bathroom safer and much more comfortable without losing your independence, we have the perfect setup for you. Our local team comes right to your home in Kingsbury County to measure your space and give you a free estimate. This simple upgrade prevents slips and lets you enjoy a deep, warm soak without any of the usual worries.
Getting into a traditional bath can feel like climbing a mini mountain when your knees or hips start acting up. Because of that high step, many people simply stop taking baths altogether and miss out on that warm relaxation. Our specialized low-threshold entry basins solve this problem by letting you just walk right inside through a leak-proof door.
This clever design means you do not have to balance on one wet foot while trying to swing the other leg over a slippery porcelain barrier. Instead of risking a nasty fall, you simply step over a tiny gap that is only a few inches high. Which means you can keep your daily routine private and secure without needing anyone to help you balance.
On top of that safety aspect, these deep-soak units feature built-in contoured seating so you do not have to lower yourself all the way to the floor. Sitting down comfortably while the water rises around you feels incredibly relaxing. It really changes your whole relationship with your bathroom from a place of anxiety to a sanctuary of peace.
Many folks in the local 57214 area want to stay in their beloved family homes for as long as possible as they grow older. This desire to age in place requires making a few smart upgrades to your living space, especially in the wettest room of the house. Our professional team helps you achieve this goal by swapping out your old, dangerous setup for a secure, accessible model.
Indeed, a quick look at the local community shows why these upgrades are so popular around here. With a cozy local population of just eighty-one people, neighbors look out for neighbors, and staying safe at home is a big priority. Since the median household income sits around $48,250, investing in home accessibility is a very practical choice that saves money on future medical bills.
| Feature | Immediate Benefit to You |
|---|---|
| Low Step-In Threshold | Prevents tripping and slips when entering the tub area. |
| Contoured Heated Seating | Allows you to bathe upright without struggling to get back up. |
| Quick Drain Technology | Ensures you do not sit shivering waiting for the water to empty. |
To make things even better, these modern bathing systems come loaded with fast-draining pumps so you do not freeze while waiting to open the door. You might think you would have to sit there forever shivering, but these systems empty the water in a flash. That way, you can dry off quickly and get on with your day without catching a cold.
Before we even bring a new unit into your house, our crew checks your existing pipes and water heater to ensure everything matches up perfectly. Since these deep vessels hold more water than a standard shallow basin, you need a reliable hot water source to fill them up nicely. We inspect your setup during our free home visit so you know exactly what to expect before any work starts.
This initial assessment lets us see if we need to upgrade your plumbing lines or if your current system is ready to go. Sometimes older homes require a bit of extra attention to ensure proper water pressure and drainage. We explain all of this in plain English so you never feel left in the dark about the technical details.
You might worry that your bathroom is too small to fit one of these accessible soaking systems, but they actually match standard tub dimensions. Our installers carefully remove your old alcove fixture and slide the new walk-in system right into the exact same footprint. This clever design saves you from having to do a massive, expensive remodel of your entire room.
Because we customize the surrounding trim, the final result looks clean and completely integrated into your existing wall setup. We seal every single seam with high-grade waterproof silicone to guarantee a lifetime of leak-free performance. You get a beautiful, functional space without the mess of a long, drawn-out construction project.
Trying to tackle this kind of complex plumbing project on your own can quickly turn into a total nightmare. Between heavy lifting, precise electrical wiring for the hydrotherapy jets, and perfect waterproofing, it requires a lot of specialized experience. Our local crew handles all the heavy lifting and technical work so you do not have to stress over a single detail.
By hiring us, you get the peace of mind that comes with knowing the job is done right the first time. We bring all the specialized tools, handle the permits if needed, and clean up every speck of dust before we leave. Which means you can just sit back, relax, and look forward to your very first safe, soothing soak.
Furthermore, we back up our work with solid guarantees so you know your investment is fully protected for the long haul. If you ever have a question or need a quick adjustment, our local team is just a short drive away to help you out. We treat our customers like family because we live and work in the exact same community as you do.

Three ideas carry the whole invention. Once they make sense, the rest of this page is just detail.
You open the door, walk in on a dry floor, sit down and close it. Only then does the water run. Because the door swings into the tub, the water itself presses it against its seal: the fuller the tub, the tighter it holds. The design cannot forget to be shut properly.
An ordinary bathtub asks you to swing a leg over a wall some fifteen inches tall, on wet tile, usually while holding nothing sturdier than a towel bar. A walk-in tub asks for a small step, about the height of a stair riser cut in half, with a grab bar placed exactly where your hand goes looking for one.
The honest cost of the sealed door is that you sit while the tub fills and while it empties. Makers answer with fast drains, often two of them, that send the water away in a couple of minutes, and with heated seats and warm air so those minutes pass kindly. We time both on your own plumbing at the assessment.
We install walk-in tubs, so you might expect us to always recommend one. We will not. If you have not enjoyed a bath in twenty years, a walk-in shower may serve you better, and we will say so at your own sink. Here is the honest picture.
| The question | Walk-in tub | Walk-in shower |
|---|---|---|
| What bathing feels like | A full warm soak, jets if you want them | A quick rinse, standing or on a bench |
| Time it asks of you | Longer: fill, soak, drain | Minutes, in and out |
| Floor space needed | Sits in the footprint of the old bathtub | Wants a little more open floor to work well |
| Budget, installed | Higher, because the door and seal are precision work | Often lower for a simple conversion |
| Sore joints and tired muscles | Warm water and jets do real, daily good here | No soak, so none of the soak's relief |
| Who tends to love it | People who cherish their bath and mean to keep it | People who shower quickly and want easy cleaning |
The deciding question is usually the first row. If the answer to "do you miss your bath" is yes, the rest of the table tends to follow.
We cut it free, shield the floors along the hallway and carry it out gently. Most old bathtubs are gone from the house before lunch.
Walk-in tubs are built to travel through ordinary doorways. Every door on the route gets measured at the assessment, so delivery day holds no surprises.
Your supply lines usually stay where they are. We fit the new valve, the hand shower and the quick drain, and check that your water heater can fill a proper soak.
The door is the heart of the tub, so it gets the slow, careful hour: aligned, adjusted and closed on its seal until the gap reads even all the way around.
When your tub has hydrotherapy, the pumps go in quiet, the lines are purged, and every control lands where a seated bather reaches it without leaning.
Panels and trim close the sides and the caulk lines are drawn clean. Then the tub is filled to the very brim once, and we watch the seal earn its keep.
We would rather tell you this before you fall in love with a tub. A walk-in tub is a home improvement, not medical equipment, and it is paid for out of the household budget the way a new roof or a rebuilt porch is. Anyone who tells you otherwise on a first phone call is selling harder than they are listening.
We make no claim about what any plan, programme or agency might do on your behalf, and we will not guess for them. Those questions belong to the people who administer them, and their answer is the only one that counts. Ask them directly, and ask before you commit to anything, including anything of ours.
What we can do is make the asking easy. Your quote arrives itemized, every line explained, so whoever needs to see it gets a precise document instead of a vague promise. That is the whole of what we control, and we would rather hand you that than a hopeful sentence about somebody else's money.
You tell us who bathes and how they get around, the rough size of the bathroom and how the tub would travel in. A few minutes on the phone, and a date for the visit.
We come to your home, measure the bathroom and every doorway on the route, and listen. No van full of tubs at the curb, no clipboard theatrics, no hurry.
A written quote follows, with each line explained in plain words: the tub, the work, the removal of the old one. Show it to your family. Sleep on it as long as you like.
One crew, one to three days. The old tub out, the new one plumbed, sealed and tested full. Your water is off for hours at a stretch, never for days.
Before we leave, we go through the door, the seat, the drain and the controls with the person who will actually bathe, until every part of it feels ordinary.
| The project | Usual bracket | What sits inside it |
|---|---|---|
| Walk-in soaker tub, installed | $4,000 - $8,000 | The tub, the door, removal of the old bathtub and the full fitting. |
| Hydrotherapy tub with jets | $6,000 - $12,000 | Water jets, warm air or both, with the pumps and controls they need. |
| Bariatric or wide-door tub | $7,000 - $14,000 | Wider seats and doors on a reinforced frame, sized at the assessment. |
| Removing the old bathtub alone | $450 - $1,200 | Folded into the lines above; priced apart only if you stop there. |
| Dedicated electrical circuit | $400 - $1,000 | Heated seats and pumps want their own breaker when the panel has no spare. |
| Walk-in tub and shower combo | $8,000 - $15,000 | One unit that soaks and showers, for households that want both. |
Your bathroom, your plumbing and the tub you choose set the final figure. That is exactly what the assessment is for.
| The feature | What it is | Why it counts |
|---|---|---|
| Low threshold | A step of about four inches into the tub | The climb over a bathtub wall is where most bathroom falls begin. Removing the climb removes the moment. |
| Seat at chair height | A molded seat near seventeen inches, like a dining chair | Sitting down and standing back up stay easy on knees and hips, with no lowering to the floor of a tub. |
| Grab bars where hands land | Fixed bars at the door and beside the seat | Balance never has to depend on a towel bar that was only ever meant to hold towels. |
| Textured floor and seat | Slip resistance molded into the tub surface itself | Wet feet keep their grip without rubber mats that curl, slide and grow things. |
| Anti-scald valve | A mixing valve that caps how hot water can arrive | Skin grows thinner with the years. The valve keeps a hot surprise from ever reaching it. |
You do sit in the tub while it fills, so the wait is real: usually a few minutes, depending on your water pressure and your heater. Many bathers spend it with the warm air running or the hand shower on their shoulders. At the assessment we run your own faucet and give you an honest minute count for your own bathroom, not a brochure number.
The door only opens once the water is gone, so the drain matters. Fast drain systems empty most tubs in about two minutes, and heated seats and warm air keep the chill away while they do. We will tell you plainly which tubs drain fastest on your plumbing around Badger.
The door seals the way a ship's hatch does: the water itself presses it shut, so a good seal gets tighter as the tub fills. Every tub we fit is filled to the brim and watched before we call the job finished, and the seal carries the maker's warranty. If it ever weeps, we come back, and the trip costs you nothing.
Nearly always, because walk-in tubs are designed to travel through ordinary hallways and door frames. We measure the whole route at the assessment, front porch to bathroom. If a doorway is genuinely too narrow, you hear it from us at your kitchen table, never on delivery day.
Yes, and it happens all the time. We can hold the assessment while you are there in person, on the phone or on a video call, and the written quote goes to whoever is helping with the decision. The walkthrough at the end is always done with the person who will actually bathe.
No. We measure, we listen, we leave a written price, and your house is your own again. Some families decide that week and some take a season. The figure holds as written, and nobody from our side will camp on your phone line.
