The Howard crew we send takes the old bathtub out, seals the new door in and tests it full, all over Fremont 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.
Every single day you should feel completely safe while getting clean in your own home. That is why our team of friendly local installers travels right to your door to help you upgrade your bathroom. This special upgrade lets you slide right into a warm soak without stepping over a dangerous high barrier.
Because of those slippery traditional porcelain basins, taking a simple bath gets scary as we get older or deal with nagging injuries. You do not have to live with that constant worry of slipping and falling on hard tile. Our custom sealing doors open wide so you can just step in, sit down, and relax in pure coziness.
If you want to know how this fits into your budget, we offer a completely free in-home estimate. We will look at your current plumbing layout, take precise measurements, and give you an honest price. You can get all your questions answered today by requesting your no-obligation quote.
When you decide to upgrade, a lot of technical details need to handle correctly. Our skilled team handles everything from the initial tear-out to the final watertight seal. This process requires a deep understanding of local plumbing codes and framing techniques.
Indeed, a standard bathroom footprint usually measures about sixty inches, which perfectly matches most of these specialty low-threshold models. This means we can swap your old high-wall basin without ripping out your entire bathroom layout. You get a fast, clean transformation that minimizes the mess in your home.
To help you see how these different models compare, we put together a simple table detailing the main styles we install:
| Model Style | Key Feature | Main Benefit for You |
|---|---|---|
| Inward Opening Door | Compact door swing | Perfect for tight, smaller bathrooms |
| Outward Opening Door | Wide clearance path | Easiest transfer for wheelchair users |
| Deep Soaker | High water level walls | Full chest-deep warm water coverage |
On top of that, these units utilize advanced heavy-duty door seals that prevent any water from leaking onto your floor. Which means you never have to worry about water damage ruining your subfloor or causing mold. Our professional installation ensures that every single gasket aligns flawlessly for a lifetime of leak-free operation.
Living in a quiet, mountain-shadowed area means dealing with specific home building styles from different eras. Whether your house sits near the Arkansas River or up in the hills, older plumbing pipes often require specialized care. We know exactly how to adapt modern drainage systems to older mountain home designs.
For instance, did you know that these larger basins require rapid-drain technology so you do not sit shivering while the water empties? We install heavy-duty drains that pull water out in under eighty seconds. This keeps you warm and dry as you prepare to exit your bath.
Besides that, we understand the local community of 829 residents where neighbors look out for each other. With a median household income of $54,083, we know that every dollar you invest in your home must bring real, lasting value. We keep our prices fair and transparent so you get the best possible safety upgrade without any hidden fees.
Before we bring your new basin inside, we carefully inspect your existing water heater to make sure it can handle the job. Because these deep-soak units hold more water than standard shallow basins, you might need a larger fast-heating system. We evaluate your current capacity to ensure your bath water stays hot from start to finish.
As a result of this thorough inspection, you will not end up with a lukewarm bath that ruins your afternoon. We can also upgrade your supply lines to three-quarter-inch pipes. This simple adjustment fills your deep basin twice as fast as standard lines.
Now, let us talk about the electrics because many models feature soothing air jets or heated backrests. Our team safely installs dedicated circuits with Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter protection to keep you safe from any electrical surges. You get to enjoy a spa-like massage with absolute peace of mind.
Beyond the watertight door, we install heavy-duty grab bars right where your hands naturally reach for support. These bars anchor directly into the wall studs rather than just the drywall. This guarantees they will support your full weight whenever you stand up or sit down.
Additionally, we apply a slip-resistant textured floor coating to the bottom of the basin. This gives your feet extra traction even when the surface is covered in soapy water. You will feel incredibly secure during every single step of your bathing routine.
First, we protect your floors with heavy drop cloths before we bring a single tool into your home. We respect your property and work quickly to minimize any disruption to your daily life. Our crew usually finishes the entire removal and replacement process in just one to two days.
Then, we test every single connection under full water pressure to guarantee a perfect seal. We do not leave your home until we are absolutely certain that everything works beautifully. Finally, we teach you how to operate the door locks and jets so you feel totally confident using your new system.
If you live anywhere in the 81233 zip code or nearby areas in the state of Colorado, we are ready to drive out to your property. We bring material samples and brochures so you can see the high quality of our safety products in person. This personal visit allows us to give you a highly accurate, guaranteed price quote.
Sometimes, people worry that these specialty safety upgrades will look institutional or like a hospital room. However, our beautiful acrylic designs match modern home styling perfectly, adding a touch of clean beauty to your home. You get all the life-saving safety features wrapped in a gorgeous, modern design.
Do not wait for a dangerous slip or an injury to force your hand. Taking action today keeps you independent in the home you love for many years to come. Simply reach out to us now to schedule your free, friendly in-home consultation and take the first step toward stress-free bathing.
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 Howard.
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.
