Our friendly team specializes in matching the right setup to your specific home.
We measure your doorway and plumbing to ensure a seamless fit during the process.
Some handy homeowners think about tackling this type of project as a DIY weekend chore.
However, setting up a heavy door-equipped basin requires advanced knowledge of plumbing, framing, and waterproofing.
One tiny mistake with the heavy-duty door seal can lead to massive water damage under your floorboards.
This is where our professional crew steps in to save you time and future headaches.
We inspect your floor joists to make sure they can support the extra weight of a full unit.
Because these specialized baths hold more water than standard ones, we often upgrade your pipes for faster filling.
Additionally, we handle the disposal of your old, heavy cast-iron or fiberglass tub.
Which means you do not have to worry about hauling heavy trash to the local landfill yourself.
We leave your bathroom sparkling clean and ready for your very first relaxing soak.
It is important to be honest about what a bathroom remodel actually looks like.
Yes, there will be some noise and dust for a day or two while we work.
But we use protective floor runners and dust tents to keep the rest of your house perfectly clean.
Sometimes, we discover hidden mold or rotted wood behind your old tile walls once we tear them down.
If we find any issues, we explain them clearly and fix them correctly before putting the new unit in.
This honest approach prevents mold from growing in secret behind your beautiful new acrylic walls.
Living in a quiet, rural area means you need contractors who actually show up when they promise.
We love serving our neighbors in this beautiful region, including the tiny but proud community of Montier, Missouri.
Even if you live near the very edge of the 65546 ZIP area, we will drive out to your house.
With a local population of just 23 people, we treat every single customer like a valued friend.
Because of this, we offer honest, fair pricing and zero-pressure consultations to help you plan your budget safely.
Our goal is to make sure our rural neighbors can age in place without needing to move away.
By installing a secure, step-in tub, you can stay in the home you love for many years to come.
We bring all our tools and samples directly to you, saving you a long trip to the big city.
Every person has a unique physical challenge, whether it is stiff shoulders or balance issues.
Which is why we customize the placement of every safety grab bar to match your reach.
We do not believe in a one-size-fits-all approach when it comes to your personal safety and comfort.
During our visit, we will ask you to sit down and simulate entering and exiting the tub.
This practice run helps us determine the absolute best height for your seat and handrails.
As a result, you get a custom-tailored setup that feels like it was built just for you.
On top of that, we offer handheld showerheads that let you wash your hair easily while seated.
This simple addition gives you complete control over where the water goes without any splashing.
You can easily switch between a deep, warm soak and a quick, convenient shower whenever you want.
We only use high-grade, non-porous acrylic units that resist mold, mildew, and yellowing over time.
This durable material keeps its shine for decades without requiring harsh chemical scrubbers.
Which means you spend less time cleaning on your hands and knees and more time relaxing.
Cheaper gel-coat models might look good at first, but they tend to scratch and fade quickly.
Investing in high-quality acrylic ensures your bathroom remains beautiful and safe for the long haul.
We walk you through all the material options so you can make an informed choice.
When you contact us, we schedule a convenient time to visit your home for a complete inspection.
We look at your water heater capacity to ensure it can supply enough hot water for your new tub.
Sometimes, we might suggest a fast-heating upgrade if your current tank is too small.
We also measure all your doorways, hallways, and stairs to plan the delivery path.
This careful planning prevents scratches on your walls and keeps the installation day running smoothly.
We then write up a clear, detailed estimate with absolutely no hidden fees or surprise charges.
There is never any pressure to sign a contract on the spot during our visit.
We want you to talk it over with your family and feel completely confident in your decision.
Our reputation is built on honesty, respect, and high-quality local service.
Taking the first step toward a safer home is much easier than you might think.
All you need to do is give us a quick call.
We will handle all the heavy lifting, planning, and technical details from start to finish.

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 Montier.
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.
