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.
Thinking about how to make your daily bath routine much safer can feel a bit overwhelming when you realize how slippery those old standard basins get.
Fortunately, our dedicated local team specializes in replacing those hazardous high-step basins with secure, low-threshold bathing systems that let you slide right in without any scary balancing acts.
By choosing this upgrade, you finally get to reclaim your peace of mind and enjoy a warm, deep soak without constantly worrying about slips or awkward falls.
Because we believe everyone deserves a stress-free home, we travel right to your doorstep to assess your current layout and offer an estimate.
This means you get professional advice tailored specifically to your space without spending a single dime upfront.
Which is why we encourage you to take action today and request your no-risk home assessment to see how simple this life-changing upgrade can be.
First of all, you might wonder how we actually fit these specialized, door-equipped soaking basins into a standard bathroom layout.
Our skilled technicians start by carefully measuring your existing footprint to ensure a seamless match with our custom units.
This careful planning prevents unexpected plumbing surprises and keeps your home neat during the transition.
After we complete the initial measurements, we gently remove your outdated, high-walled basin and prep the subfloor.
Then, we secure the new unit, hook up the advanced leak-free drain systems, and seal everything tightly to prevent water damage.
Consequently, your bathroom gains a massive upgrade in utility and comfort without losing any of its original charm.
To help you visualize the transformation, we compiled a quick comparison of what you get when upgrading your setup:
| Feature | Old Traditional Basin | Our Secure Low-Threshold System |
|---|---|---|
| Step-In Height | Usually 14 to 18 inches | Ultra-low, mere inches from the floor |
| Seating | None, must sit on the slippery floor | Contoured, comfortable built-in bench |
| Safety Features | None built-in, very slippery surfaces | Sturdy grab bars and non-slip flooring |
Living in our beautiful coastal community means appreciating the quiet comfort of home, especially during those freezing winter months.
Because we understand the unique plumbing quirks of homes in Cumberland County, we know exactly how to handle older pipe configurations and modern setups alike.
This local familiarity guarantees a smooth, hassle-free setup that respects your property and your time.
Whether you reside near the historic Portland Head Light or closer to the quiet state parks, our mobile crew travels directly to you.
Since we cater to a community of about 9,015 residents, we treat every single client like a close neighbor rather than just another invoice.
That personal touch is exactly why your friends and neighbors trust us to secure their bathrooms for the long haul.
In addition to our deep community roots, we always keep our services affordable for households across all income brackets.
Even though the local median household income is highly comfortable, we believe safety shouldn't cost an absolute fortune.
This is why we offer highly competitive pricing alongside our free, no-obligation estimates to ensure total transparency.
Soaking in warm water up to your chest does wonders for tired joints and aching muscles after a long day of outdoor activities.
Thanks to the built-in, heated seating of our secure enclosures, you can sit upright while enjoying a deeply relaxing soak.
This ergonomic posture relieves pressure on your lower back and knees, unlike traditional flat basins that force you to lie down.
On top of that, our units feature rapid-drain technology that empties the water in a flash so you do not have to sit there shivering.
Which means you can open the secure side door almost immediately after your bath and step out safely onto your bath mat.
This smart design keeps you warm and prevents the post-bath chill that makes traditional bathing so unpleasant during Maine winters.
Furthermore, the heavy-duty seals on our side-entry doors are backed by a lifetime guarantee against leaks.
This robust protection gives you peace of mind knowing your bathroom floors will stay bone-dry and free from water damage.
You get to enjoy the luxurious feeling of a deep spa experience without any of the clean-up headaches.
Everyone has different physical needs and aesthetic tastes, which is why we offer a wide variety of custom accessories.
From adjustable handheld showerheads to strategically placed grab bars, we tailor every detail to fit your reach.
This customization ensures that your new setup feels incredibly natural and easy to use from day one.
Now, you can also opt for soothing air jets that gently massage your legs and feet to boost circulation.
These therapeutic options turn a simple daily necessity into a deeply relaxing ritual that you will actually look forward to.
It is all about giving you back your independence while adding a touch of daily pampering to your routine.
To top it all off, our units are crafted from high-grade, non-porous acrylic that naturally resists mold, mildew, and stubborn grime.
Which means you spend far less time scrubbing on your hands and knees and more time enjoying your day.
A simple wipe-down with a soft cloth is all it takes to keep your new system looking brand new for years.
Taking the first step toward a safer home is incredibly simple when you work with our friendly, down-to-earth team.
We start by scheduling a convenient time to visit your home, inspect your current bathroom, and discuss your specific mobility goals.
During our visit, we provide a detailed, written estimate that breaks down the entire project scope from start to finish.
We hate hidden fees just as much as you do, so we make sure every single cost is clearly explained upfront.
This open communication ensures there are absolutely no surprises when our installation crew arrives to do the work.

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 Cape Elizabeth.
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.
