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 we get older. This is why many people in Broward County are looking for a safer way to wash without the fear of slipping. Fortunately, you can easily transform your bathing area into a secure haven with a specialized low-threshold deep soaking system.
Our team travels directly to your home to assess your layout and provide an estimate. This means you get real answers from local installers who know how to handle tricky plumbing issues. We focus on making your bathroom a place of pure relaxation and safety once again.
Imagine never having to step over a high barrier just to clean yourself. Instead, you simply open a secure leak-proof door, step inside, and sit on a raised contoured seat. This change brings back your independence and gives your family total peace of mind.
Many homeowners worry that retrofitting their bathroom will turn their house into a messy construction zone for weeks. However, our experienced crew usually completes the swap in just one or two days. We take out your old high-walled basin and replace it with a modern, watertight entry system that fits perfectly into the existing alcove.
This swift transition minimizes the disruption to your daily routine. Since we handle everything from the initial demolition to the final sealing, you do not have to worry about hiring separate plumbers or drywallers. We bring our own tools and clean up every speck of dust before we leave.
To help you understand how this upgrade compares to a standard setup, we created a quick comparison table below.
| Feature | Standard Basin | Our Low-Step Entry System |
|---|---|---|
| Step-In Height | 14 to 18 inches | 2 to 4 inches |
| Seating | Floor level (difficult to rise) | Contoured ADA-compliant seat |
| Safety Features | None built-in | Grab bars, slip-resistant floor |
| Drainage Speed | Standard slow drain | Fast-drain technology available |
Naturally, you want to make sure your new setup is both functional and beautiful. That is why our personalized consultation helps you choose the right configuration for your specific space. We measure everything twice so that the final fit is seamless and tight.
Beyond the obvious safety aspects, these deep-walled units offer incredible therapeutic benefits for tired muscles and aching joints. Because they are much deeper than a standard basin, you can submerge your torso fully while sitting upright. This upright posture is much easier on your back and knees.
For those who struggle with arthritis or poor circulation, warm water immersion works wonders. You can even choose models equipped with soothing hydrotherapy jets or air bubbles. These features target your lower back, legs, and feet to wash away the stress of the day.
On top of that, your new setup adds long-term value to your property. Buyers appreciate homes that are already modified for accessibility, especially in sunny Florida retirement communities. It is a smart investment that pays off in both daily wellness and future home equity.
Every single unit we install comes packed with built-in safety gear to keep you upright and secure. For starters, the heavy-duty grab bars are strategically placed to give you leverage when sitting or standing. The floor features a deeply textured, non-skid surface that works even when soapy water covers it.
Which means you can bathe independently without needing a caregiver to assist you. The door seal utilizes a pressure-lock system that prevents any water from leaking onto your bathroom floor. You will not have to worry about puddles causing a slip hazard outside the unit.
A common complaint about these deep basins is having to sit and shiver while the water drains away. Fortunately, we offer advanced dual-drain systems that empty the entire container in under two minutes. You can open the door and step out almost immediately after you finish washing.
This clever addition keeps you warm and prevents you from catching a chill. It also means you do not have to sit around waiting to get on with your day. It is a simple upgrade that makes a massive difference in your daily comfort.
Trying to tackle this type of renovation as a weekend DIY project usually leads to water damage and costly mistakes. These specialized units are heavy and require precise plumbing alignments to drain correctly. Our local crew knows the local building codes in Broward County inside and out.
We ensure that your electrical hookups for the jets are safely grounded and up to code. Our team also verifies that your hot water heater can handle the capacity of a larger deep-soaking unit. If your water heater needs a boost, we can recommend and install a fast-acting inline heater to keep your bath warm indefinitely.
This professional touch guarantees that your warranty remains fully intact. We stand behind our craftsmanship and ensure that every seal is airtight. You get a beautiful, stress-free bathroom upgrade that functions flawlessly for years to come.

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 Lake Forest.
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.
