The Larkfield-Wikiup crew we send takes the old bathtub out, seals the new door in and tests it full, all over Sonoma 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.
Taking a relaxing bath should never feel like a scary balancing act.
If you worry about slipping on wet tiles, we can help you find a safer way to clean up.
Our team visits your home to check your setup and give you an estimate.
Stepping over a high porcelain barrier gets harder as the years roll by.
Because of this, we install specialized accessible bathing chambers with low entry thresholds.
You deserve to feel secure in your own washroom without constantly relying on others.
We pride ourselves on modifying your space to match your physical needs.
This change means you keep your dignity while enjoying a warm, deep soak.
Let us handle the heavy lifting while you focus on your peace of mind.
You might wonder how these leak-free doors actually keep the water inside your basin.
Well, they utilize heavy-duty pressure seals that tighten up when you lock the latch.
This clever design prevents messy puddles from ruining your subfloor and causing mold.
Our premium setups also feature built-in contoured seating to keep you comfortable.
Instead of hovering near the floor, you sit upright at a natural chair height.
This ergonomic posture makes washing your hair and rinsing off much easier.
On top of that, we include fast-draining technology so you do not freeze while waiting.
Nobody wants to sit shivering for ten minutes after turning the water valves off.
Our rapid release drains empty the basin in a fraction of the usual time.
| Safety Feature | Daily Benefit for You |

| Interior grab bars | Provides sturdy handholds when standing or sitting |
| Anti-slip floor texture | Keeps your feet firmly planted even when soapy |

Living in this beautiful corner of Sonoma County brings a lot of joy.
With a local population of 8,926 people, neighbors around here really look out for each other.
We love helping folks in the area update their homes for long-term safety.
Many local households earn near the median household income of $76,154 annually.
We know that home improvement projects represent a significant investment for your family.
Therefore, we focus on durable materials that stand up to daily wear and tear.
Whether you reside in the local ZIP codes or nearby, we travel directly to your door.
We inspect your existing plumbing lines to ensure they can handle the new fixtures.
This thorough check prevents unpleasant surprises once the actual remodel begins.
Some people assume these deep-soak units are only for basic hygiene.
Actually, you can get gentle air jets that massage your aching back.
This soothing sensation turns a simple wash into a private spa experience.
Additionally, we offer heated backrests to keep your upper body cozy during long soaks.
This heat retention allows you to linger in the tub without adding more hot water.
You will look forward to this relaxing routine at the end of every single day.
You do not need a massive mansion to fit these secure bathing systems.
Most of our models fit directly into the footprint of your old standard alcove.
This compatibility means we rarely have to tear down your structural drywall.
Sometimes, we discover outdated galvanized pipes behind your old shower walls.
If that happens, our skilled team replaces them with modern, flexible copper or PEX lines.
This update ensures excellent water pressure and clean flows for decades to come.
First, we carefully extract your old slippery basin without damaging your surrounding walls.
This demolition phase requires a delicate touch and proper disposal planning.
We haul away the heavy waste so you do not have to worry about cleanup.
Next, our technicians level the subfloor to support the immense weight of the new unit.
Water is incredibly heavy, which means the base must be absolutely rock solid.
We reinforce the joists if we find any signs of rot or wood compromise.
After that, we run the dedicated electrical lines and connect the drain assemblies.
We test every single connection twice to guarantee there are no hidden leaks.
Only then do we slide the new unit into place and seal the edges.
Finally, we install beautiful surround panels that match your existing bathroom style.
These waterproof walls keep splash water where it belongs while looking incredibly sharp.
You get a clean, polished look that elevates the value of your entire home.
You should think about your water heater capacity before purchasing a deep-soak unit.
Because these basins hold more gallons than a shallow tray, they require plenty of hot water.
We can evaluate your current tank to see if it needs an upgrade.
Occasionally, upgrading to a tankless system works best for continuous warm flows.
This setup heats water on demand so you never run out mid-bath.
We will discuss these options openly during your initial in-home consultation.
Another factor involves the door configuration, which can swing inward or outward.
Inward doors seal tighter naturally but require you to step around them to close them.
Outward doors offer easier access but need a bit more clearance in your bathroom floor plan.
Maintaining your freedom at home starts with securing your most dangerous room.
Statistically, most household slips happen right next to the toilet or the shower.
By removing the high barrier, you take control of your personal safety.
Imagine never having to ask a family member for assistance just to clean up.
This independence brings a wonderful sense of relief to both you and your loved ones.
They can worry less knowing you have a secure environment designed for your mobility.
Our craftsmanship ensures that your new setup looks like a deliberate style choice.

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 Larkfield-Wikiup.
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.
