From every corner of Kenton County, the climb over the tub wall gives way to a watertight door, a warm seat and a steady hand to hold.
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, thousands of people worry about slipping on wet bathroom tiles. This fear makes a simple daily shower feel like a dangerous mountain climb. Fortunately, a specialized home modification offers a brilliant way to regain your independence without losing your dignity.
By swapping your old, high-walled barrier with a secure, low-step alternative, you can wash without fear. Our local team visits your home to measure your space and provide a detailed, completely free estimate. This hassle-free upgrade keeps you safe in the place you love most.
Taking this step means you can finally stop worrying about slick surfaces. We make the entire process incredibly straightforward from start to finish. Our friendly crew handles all the heavy lifting so you do not have to stress over a thing.
Essentially, we replace your standard, risky basin with a custom-engineered, leak-proof sealed door unit. You simply open the swinging entryway, step over a tiny threshold that is only a few inches high, and sit down on a built-in raised seat. Because of this design, you never have to balance on one foot while climbing over a freezing cold porcelain ledge.
This clever system relies on a heavy-duty door seal that utilizes the natural pressure of the water to keep your bathroom completely dry. On top of that, rapid-drain technology empties the basin in a flash so you are not sitting there shivering when you are finished. It is a total game-changer for anyone dealing with stiff joints or balance issues.
To give you a better idea of how these custom units compare to what you probably have right now, we put together a quick comparison table below.
| Feature | Standard Basin | Our Accessible Sealed Units |
|---|---|---|
| Step-In Height | Usually 14 to 18 inches | Only 2 to 4 inches |
| Seating | None (must sit on floor) | Contoured, ADA-compliant raised bench |
| Safety Features | Slippery flat bottom | Non-slip floors and integrated grab bars |
| Drain Time | Standard slow gravity drain | High-speed powered extraction system |
Living in Northern Kentucky means dealing with gorgeous changing seasons, but those icy winters can make arthritis and joint pain feel way worse. Many of the 160,000-plus folks residing in this beautiful corner of the Bluegrass State are choosing to age in place gracefully. Whether you live in a historic home near the river or a newer build in the suburbs, your current bathroom might not be ready for the future.
Naturally, your home should be your ultimate sanctuary. Investing in proper accessibility upgrades protects your physical health while boosting the overall value of your property. Which means you can stay in your beloved neighborhood, surrounded by friends and family, for decades to come.
Actually, many families discover that modifying the master bath is much cheaper than moving into an assisted living facility. It is a practical, one-time investment that brings instant relief to worried children and grandchildren. We love helping local families find that incredible sense of relief.
First, we schedule a convenient time to drop by your house for a friendly, pressure-free chat. During this visit, we look at your existing plumbing, measure your door frames, and help you pick out the perfect layout. This lets us give you an exact, written price quote right then and there, with zero hidden fees or surprises.
Once you decide to move forward, our highly trained installers arrive with all the right tools to get the job done right. We carefully extract your old unit, upgrade the underlying pipes, and level the floor so everything sits perfectly. Since we respect your home, we always lay down protective drop cloths and clean up every speck of dust before we leave.
Finally, we fill the brand-new system up with water to test the heavy-duty pressurized seals and show you exactly how to operate the controls. You will learn how to use the hand-held shower wand, the soothing hydrotherapy jets, and the fast-draining valve. Then, the gorgeous, cozy oasis is all yours to enjoy.
Yes, because these specialized units are specifically designed to match the exact footprint of a traditional five-foot bathing area. This means we rarely have to tear down your drywall or redesign your entire floor plan to make it fit perfectly. It saves you tons of time and keeps the project very affordable.
Our units use advanced, industrial-grade silicone seals backed by heavy-duty locking latches that form an airtight barrier. As the water level rises inside the enclosure, it actually presses the door tighter against the frame to guarantee a dry floor. You will never have to worry about water damage or mold ruining your subfloor.
Not at all, since our skilled crew can typically complete the entire transformation in just one to two days. We know how annoying it is to have contractors hovering around your house for weeks on end. That is why we work fast, stay focused, and get out of your hair as quickly as possible.

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.
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.
