The Export crew we send takes the old bathtub out, seals the new door in and tests it full, all over Washington 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.
Getting in and out of a standard bath can feel like climbing a mountain as the years roll by.
This is why many local homeowners are choosing to replace their high-walled basins with a modern, leak-proof accessible bathing enclosure.
If you want to regain your independence while soaking in deep, warm water, our friendly team is ready to visit your home and give you a free estimate on a custom upgrade.
Imagine never having to balance on one slippery foot again just to take a warm bath.
That stressful daily worry vanishes the moment we set up your new setup with a secure, low-threshold entry door.
Because we believe in honest work, we will look at your current plumbing layout, measure your space, and help you find the perfect fit without any pressure.
Our goal is to make your daily routine stress-free and full of deep relaxation.
Which means you get to enjoy your home for many more years without worrying about painful slips or falls.
Now is the perfect time to chat with us about how we can transform your bathroom into a secure personal spa.
Most traditional bathroom setups force you to step over a barrier that is at least fifteen inches high.
By contrast, our specialized easy-access soaking systems feature an incredibly low step-in height of just a few inches.
This simple change eliminates the main cause of bathroom slips, giving you and your family total peace of mind.
On top of that, these sealed chambers come with a contoured, built-in seat that keeps you upright and comfortable.
You can sit down safely before you even turn on the faucet, which keeps you stable the whole time.
This design lets you soak your tired muscles deeply without ever needing to lower yourself all the way down to the floor level.
To keep the water exactly where it belongs, these units utilize heavy-duty, commercial-grade pressure seals.
The water pressure itself actually helps push the door shut, creating an absolute watertight barrier that prevents messy floor puddles.
Consequently, your bathroom floor stays bone-dry, protecting your subfloor from rot and keeping your tiles safe to walk on.
When you choose to work with our local crew, we handle absolutely everything from the initial teardown to the final cleanup.
We start by carefully removing your old, outdated alcove tub, taking great care not to damage your surrounding walls or doorways.
After that, we inspect the underlying wooden structure to make sure there is no hidden water damage or mold waiting to cause future trouble.
Because these deep-soaking units hold a lot of water, we often upgrade your drainage pipes to a rapid-drain system.
This advanced setup pulls water out of the basin up to eight times faster than a standard drain.
As a result, you do not have to sit around shivering in the cold while you wait for the basin to empty out completely.
| Project Stage | What We Do For You | Your Direct Benefit |
|---|---|---|
| Site Prep & Demo | We remove your old tub and inspect the structural framing underneath. | No hidden mold or wood rot is left behind in your home. |
| Plumbing Alignment | We reroute the hot and cold water lines and install fast-drain valves. | You get hot water quickly and the basin empties out in record time. |
| Sealing & Testing | We anchor the unit securely and test the heavy-duty door gaskets. | Your bathroom floor stays completely dry and free of leaks. |
Next, our team carefully levels the new unit and secures it directly to your floor joists.
We then hook up the brand-new fixtures, including handy handheld showerheads that let you wash your hair with ease while seated.
Finally, we run a complete wet-test to ensure every single seal, pipe, and jet operates flawlessly before we call the job done.
Every home is unique, which is why we offer a wide variety of sizes and configurations to match your specific layout.
For instance, we can install units equipped with heated backrests that keep your upper body warm while the basin fills up.
This smart feature ensures you stay cozy during those chilly Pennsylvania winters, even before the warm water reaches your chest.
Another fantastic option to consider is the addition of soothing hydrotherapy jets.
These strategically placed water nozzles target your lower back, hips, and calves to gently massage away daily aches and stiffness.
Indeed, many of our local clients find that a quick evening soak helps them sleep much better through the night.
If you prefer a gentler sensation, we can install air-jet systems instead of high-pressure water streams.
These systems release thousands of tiny, warm bubbles that caress your skin and stimulate your circulation.
This option lets you enjoy a soft, cloud-like experience that is incredibly relaxing for sensitive skin or sore joints.
We know that remodeling a bathroom is a big decision, so we focus on providing lasting value.
While a high-quality step-in bathing unit is a significant investment, it is far cheaper than moving into an assisted living facility.
By making this change today, you ensure that you can stay in the home you love for years to come.
To help you plan, we provide completely free, transparent written estimates right at your kitchen table.
We will break down the costs of the unit, the plumbing labor, and the finish work so there are zero surprises.
This clear approach ensures you can make an informed decision that fits your budget and lifestyle perfectly.
Furthermore, these safety upgrades can actually boost the overall market appeal of your property.
Many buyers look specifically for homes that already have accessible features installed, making this a smart long-term upgrade.
So, you are not just investing in your daily safety, but also in the equity of your household.

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 Export.
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.
