The Mākena crew we send takes the old bathtub out, seals the new door in and tests it full, all over Maui 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 simple bath should feel like a relaxing escape rather than a stressful obstacle course.
If you find yourself worrying about slipping on wet tiles or struggling to climb over high tub walls, we have the ultimate solution for your peace of mind.
Our professional team specializes in retrofitting bathrooms with accessible, leak-proof step-in soaking enclosures that bring back your independence.
By choosing this upgrade, you instantly transform your bathroom into a personal spa oasis.
You will finally enjoy deep, warm soaking without any of the anxiety of losing your balance.
Best of all, we offer free on-site consultations to help you plan the perfect layout for your home.
Living in Maui County means appreciating the finer, slower moments of life.
Because of this, your bathroom should reflect that same laid-back island lifestyle.
Let us help you make your home safer and more luxurious today.
These specialized bathing systems feature a leak-proof side door that allows you to walk right in without lifting your legs more than a few inches.
Once you step inside, you sit on a comfortable, raised contoured seat and seal the heavy-duty door.
After that, you simply fill the basin with warm water and enjoy a deep, soothing soak.
This clever design keeps you upright and fully supported during your bath.
Which means you never have to worry about struggling to get back up from the floor of a standard basin.
Instead, you just let the water drain completely before opening the door and walking out safely.
Many models also come equipped with hydrotherapy jets and heated surfaces.
These advanced features work wonders on sore muscles and stiff joints after a long day of outdoor activities.
As a result, you get a therapeutic experience that rivals any luxury resort.
Safety stands out as the most obvious advantage of these modern accessible fixtures.
Since wet bathroom floors present a major slip hazard, having built-in grab bars and textured slip-resistant flooring keeps you steady on your feet.
This simple change dramatically reduces the risk of dangerous falls in the home.
Another fantastic benefit is the therapeutic relief provided by deep-tissue water massage jets.
If you suffer from arthritis, poor circulation, or general body aches, the warm water pressure works wonders.
You will sleep much better at night after a relaxing evening soak.
On top of that, these units can actually increase the overall value of your property.
Homebuyers increasingly look for accessible features that allow for aging in place gracefully.
So, this project serves as a smart investment for both your present well-being and your future financial return.
First, our skilled technicians visit your home to inspect your current plumbing setup and take precise measurements.
We check your water heater capacity to ensure you have enough hot water to fill the new deep-soaking basin.
This initial assessment helps us determine the absolute best model for your specific space.
Next, we carefully remove your old, outdated tub without damaging the surrounding walls or floorboards.
We then upgrade the drain pipes and install robust faucet fixtures designed for rapid filling and draining.
This ensures you do not have to sit around waiting in the cold while the water levels shift.
Finally, we slide the new heavy-duty sealed unit into place and secure it to your subfloor.
We perform rigorous water tests to guarantee that every single seal is completely watertight and secure.
Once we finish, we clean up the workspace entirely so you can enjoy your new sanctuary immediately.
When selecting your new system, you should consider whether you prefer air jets, water jets, or a combination of both.
Air jets create a gentle, effervescent bubbling sensation that relaxes the skin.
Conversely, water jets deliver a more intense, targeted massage to relieve deep muscle tension.
You also want to look closely at the door entry configuration of the unit.
Some models feature an inward-swinging door to save space, while others open outward for easier entry.
We will help you weigh these options based on your physical mobility and bathroom layout.
Do not forget to ask about fast-drain technology during your consultation.
This specific feature uses a powerful pump to empty the water in under two minutes.
Consequently, you will never have to sit shivering while waiting to open the door.
| Feature | Immediate Benefit |
|---|---|
| Low Step-In Threshold | Prevents tripping and makes entering the tub effortless. |
| Contoured Heated Seat | Provides incredible coziness and keeps your upper body warm. |
| Dual Drain Technology | Empties the basin rapidly so you can exit without waiting. |
| Hydrotherapy Jets | Relieves chronic joint pain and boosts blood circulation. |

Many homeowners worry that their current water heater cannot handle a larger soaking basin.
While these tubs do hold more water, we can easily install a fast-heating booster system to solve this.
This simple addition guarantees you always have plenty of hot water for a luxurious soak.
Another frequent concern involves the actual time it takes to complete the job.
You might worry about having your bathroom out of commission for weeks on end.
Fortunately, our experienced crew usually completes the entire swap in just one to two days.
Lastly, some people fear that these safe bathing units look too institutional or clinical.
Modern designs actually feature sleek lines, high-gloss finishes, and beautiful chrome fixtures.
They blend seamlessly into any upscale bathroom design, adding style rather than taking it away.
Investing in your home accessibility is a wise move for long-term comfort and independence.
In areas with a median household income of $40,500, smart home improvements should always focus on longevity.

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 Mākena.
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.
