One number reaches the people who fit the tubs. Say what the bathroom is like and we take it from there.

If you feel nervous every time you step over that high barrier of your standard basin then you are not alone. That daily climb can start to feel like conquering a mountain as we get older or deal with stiff joints. Fortunately, a smart upgrade brings back your independence and gives you peace of mind while washing up.
By choosing a modern low-threshold bathing unit with a leak-proof door you can finally stop worrying about dangerous slips. These specialized systems let you walk right in and sit down on a raised bench instead of lowering yourself all the way to the floor. Right now, our local team is ready to visit your home and provide a detailed estimate without charging you a single dime.
When you start looking into these secure basins you will notice they are packed with features designed to keep you secure and cozy. For starters, the heavy-duty door seals tight using pressure technology so you never have to worry about water spilling onto your bathroom floor. Because of this design, you can enjoy a deep soak while sitting upright on a slip-resistant seat.
On top of that, many models include built-in handrails and textured surfaces to help you keep your balance at all times. Since the entry step is only a few inches off the ground, you can say goodbye to those scary balancing acts on slick porcelain. This simple change transforms your daily routine from a stressful chore into a relaxing, spa-like escape.
Naturally, some people worry about sitting in the drafty air while the water drains out after a bath. To solve this issue, we install high-speed drainage systems that empty the basin in under eighty seconds. This means you do not have to sit there shivering while waiting to open the door and step out.
Now, you might think about trying to tackle this setup yourself, but these heavy units require specialized plumbing and precise leveling. Our skilled crew handles the entire process from removing your old cast-iron basin to sealing the new leak-proof system. Which means you get a perfect fit without dealing with water damage or amateur mistakes down the road.
To give you a better idea of what to expect, we put together a quick comparison of standard setups versus these accessible models:
| Feature | Standard Basin | Accessible Entry Unit |
|---|---|---|
| Step-In Height | 14 to 18 inches | 2 to 4 inches | Seating | Floor level (hard to rise) | Contoured, ADA-compliant bench |
| Water Depth | Shallow (usually under 12 inches) | Deep soaking (up to 30 inches) |
As you can see, the differences are massive when it comes to daily usability and safety. This upgrade protects your physical well-being and allows you to stay in the home you love for many years to come. Even better, it adds real value to your property by making it fully accessible for anyone who visits.
Since every home and body is shaped differently, we offer a wide variety of sizes and layout configurations to fit your exact needs. For example, some folks prefer therapeutic water jets to soothe sore muscles while others just want a deep, simple soak. During our visit, we will measure your space and help you select the ideal combination of features.
Besides the safety aspects, you can choose luxury additions like heated backrests that keep you warm before the water even fills the basin. This lets you customize your routine so it feels like a high-end retreat rather than a basic chore. We make sure the final setup blends beautifully with your existing decor so you do not lose the visual appeal of your room.

We proudly serve homeowners across the entire area, including ZIP codes 28358, 28359, and 28360.
Before any work begins, we sit down with you to map out the schedule so you know exactly when our crew will be in your home. Usually, we can complete the entire swap in just one or two days, which minimizes the disruption to your daily life. This swift turnaround means you will not be stuck without a working bathroom for weeks on end.
First, we carefully remove your old fixture and inspect the subfloor underneath for any hidden rot or mold. If we find any issues, we repair them immediately to ensure your new secure basin has a rock-solid foundation. After that, we upgrade the plumbing connections and slide the new unit into place with perfect precision.
Once everything is hooked up, we run a thorough water test to verify that the door seal is completely watertight and the jets function perfectly. This meticulous checking process guarantees that your home stays dry and your new investment works flawlessly from day one. Finally, we show you exactly how to operate all the controls so you feel 100% confident using it.

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 Lumberton.
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.
