The Dixon crew we send takes the old bathtub out, seals the new door in and tests it full, all over Scott County. Bathing stays at home, where it belongs.
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.
Deciding to change how you bathe is a big step for your home. You want a safer way to clean up without needing to climb over high walls. This simple change brings you a whole lot of peace of mind.
Most folks living in this quiet corner of Iowa appreciate a good deal. If you reside in the 52745 zip code area, you know how small and tight-knit things can be. Getting a fresh setup installed allows you to stay in the house you love for longer.
Thinking about the future is always a bright idea for a homeowner. These deep basins with a swinging door remove the fear of tripping over a ledge. You gain back your independence while keeping your bathroom looking sharp and modern.
Since the population here is small, you likely value local folks who show up on time. We handle everything from the initial measurement to the final water test. This ensures that you get a perfect fit every single time we visit.
Measuring your bathroom is the first thing we do when we arrive at your place. We look at the plumbing and the electrical layout to ensure a smooth transition. This precision helps you avoid messy surprises later on during the project.
Because we want you to feel total ease in your bathroom, we offer custom colors and materials. You can pick out jets or heaters to turn your bath into a real getaway. This adds value to your property and makes every soak feel like a treat.
Installing these units involves more than just swapping out a plastic tub. We have to make sure the drain lines match up perfectly with your current pipes. That kind of attention to detail prevents leaks that could ruin your subfloor later.
Working in a town with roughly 185 neighbors means we rely on our good reputation. We treat every home in this neck of the woods as if it were our own. This gives you the assurance that the work gets done right the first time.
Starting the journey is easy when you reach out for a no-cost estimate. We come to your house and look at the layout of your current room. Then we explain all your options so you can choose what fits your budget.
Once you pick your favorite model, our crew gets to work removing the old stuff. We haul away the heavy porcelain or steel so you do not have to lift a finger. This keeps your home tidy and lets you relax while we do the heavy lifting.
Looking at the different sizes and shapes helps you find what really works for you. Some people prefer a seat that is higher up for better posture while bathing. Others might want a wider door to make stepping in and out a breeze.
Whatever your preference, we help you weigh the pros and cons of each model. We never push you to buy something that you do not truly need or want. This honesty is why our neighbors keep calling us back for other home projects.
| Feature Type | Benefit for You | |
|---|---|---|
| Deep Basin | Better soaking for sore muscles | |
| Swinging Door | No climbing over walls | |
| Non-slip Floor | Prevents dangerous accidents | |
| Handheld Sprayer | Easier to clean hard spots | |
| Grab Rails | Extra balance and stability |
Keeping things clean is pretty simple if you follow a few basic rules. You should wipe down the seal around the door after every single bath. This keeps the rubber soft and ensures the water stays exactly where it belongs.
We also suggest checking the drain screen for hair and soap buildup occasionally. Taking care of these small tasks now saves you big headaches in the long run. We are always around if you need a hand with a deeper cleaning or a checkup.
Budgeting is always on the mind of anyone making changes to their residence. With a median household income of around 52,500 dollars, it makes sense to spend wisely. You want a high-quality product that lasts for years without needing constant repairs.
Choosing a professional install means you avoid the high cost of amateur mistakes. We carry the right tools to ensure the frame is sturdy and perfectly level. This gives you a solid foundation that stands the test of time.
Trying to cut corners by doing it yourself can lead to big problems. If the seal fails, you might end up with water damage in your walls. That kind of repair bill is way higher than the cost of a pro install.
Allowing a pro to handle the plumbing and electrical work keeps you safe. You avoid shock hazards and the stress of dealing with complex pipe fittings. We bring all the right parts and keep the workspace organized throughout the process.
Every person has a unique height and weight that changes how they move. We customize the seat height so you can lean back and relax comfortably. This level of care makes your daily routine feel much more pleasant and luxurious.
If you have specific medical needs, we can add extra support rails to the walls. These small additions provide a lot of extra security while you move around. You deserve a space that adapts to you instead of the other way around.
Now that you know what goes into the process, you might be ready to act. Getting a price quote is the best way to see what is possible. It gives you a clear picture of the costs without any hidden fees or pressure.
We love serving our local area and helping neighbors improve their living conditions. Simply let us know when you have a free moment for a quick chat. We will come out to your property and walk you through everything you need to know.
Expect a friendly face and a direct conversation about your goals for the room. We measure the space and show you photos of recent projects in the county. You get to see the quality of our work before we ever touch a tool.
Once we leave, you have all the info you need to make a smart choice. There is no rush and no pushy sales pitch to deal with afterward. We believe that good work speaks for itself and leads to happy clients.
Investing in your home is always a great move for your future. You get a space that brings you joy and keeps you safe every single day. There is no better feeling than knowing your house is ready for your needs.
Reach out to us today to schedule your free estimate for your project. We look forward to seeing how we can help you upgrade your daily life. Let us make your bathroom a place of true satisfaction and total ease.
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 Dixon.
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.
