The Oconomowoc crew we send takes the old bathtub out, seals the new door in and tests it full, all over Waukesha 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.
Getting in and out of a traditional bathtub can feel like climbing a small mountain when your knees start acting up.
Fortunately, you can swap that slippery old basin for a secure, low-step alternative that lets you soak without the fear of falling.
This simple upgrade keeps you independent in your own home for years to come.
Maybe you have noticed that your daily shower routine feels more like an obstacle course lately.
Which means you are probably looking for a smart, permanent way to fix that bathroom hazard before an accident happens.
Our friendly local team specializes in replacing scary high-walled tubs with beautiful, accessible bathing units that feature a watertight swing door.
When you choose to work with us, you get a personalized assessment right in your home to find the perfect fit.
This lets you sit down comfortably while you bathe instead of struggling to stand on a slick surface.
We love helping folks reclaim their peace of mind, so we always offer a completely free estimate to get you started.
Investing in your home safety is not just about avoiding slips, it also adds real value to your property.
On top of that, making these changes early prevents the stress of emergency moves to assisted living facilities.
You deserve to enjoy your private oasis without worrying about who is going to help you get out of the water.
Think about the relief of stepping over a threshold that is only a few inches high.
That is why our specialty sealed-door units are becoming incredibly popular among homeowners who plan to age in place.
We handle the entire process from tear-out to the final plumbing connections so you do not have to lift a finger.
Our gorgeous Wisconsin lake country region is famous for its cozy, historic homes that often have very tight, awkward bathrooms.
Because of this, we customize every single project to fit your specific layout, even if your current space seems too small.
We love serving this community of roughly sixteen thousand neighbors, where the median household income sits around seventy-eight thousand dollars.
You might wonder how these specialized units manage to hold back gallons of water without leaking onto your floor.
Actually, they use heavy-duty pressure seals and locking mechanisms that keep every drop inside where it belongs.
This guarantees a dry, safe floor every time you decide to pamper yourself with a warm soak.
Additionally, fast-draining technology is a critical feature that many people do not think about until they are sitting there waiting.
Which is why we install rapid-drain systems that empty the basin in under two minutes.
You will not have to sit there shivering while you wait for the water level to drop so you can open the door.
| Key Feature | Direct Benefit to You |
|---|---|
| Low-entry threshold | Eliminates tripping hazards and painful high stepping |
| Contoured built-in seating | Provides a secure, relaxed position while bathing |
| Thermostatic control valves | Prevents sudden blasts of freezing or scalding water |
| Strategic grab bars | Offers solid handholds when standing up or sitting down |
Now, let us talk about the soothing therapeutic jets that you can add to your new setup.
These air and hydrotherapy options help soothe your aching muscles after a long day of walking around our beautiful local parks.
It feels like having a private spa right in your own home, minus the expensive resort bill.
Every bathroom has its own unique quirks, which is why a one-size-fits-all approach never works.
For instance, some homes require a compact model that fits perfectly into an existing standard five-foot shower stall.
Other times, a wider bariatric unit is necessary to ensure maximum room and absolute physical support.
To help you visualize the options, we bring samples and detailed brochures directly to your kitchen table.
This helps you compare colors, gate styles, and faucet finishes to match your existing decor beautifully.
You get to design a space that feels like a luxurious retreat rather than a sterile hospital room.
Surprisingly, many people worry that the installation process will drag on for weeks and leave them without a bathroom.
However, our experienced crew usually wraps up the main swap in just one or two days.
We work quickly and clean up every speck of dust before we pack up our tools and leave.
Standard tubs are so shallow that your upper body stays chilly while you try to relax.
In contrast, our deep-set units allow you to submerge your torso fully while sitting completely upright.
This brings unmatched warmth and relaxation to your daily routine, especially during our famously freezing winter months.
Besides the physical relief, you will love how easy these non-porous acrylic surfaces are to keep clean.
Because they resist mold and soap scum, you will spend less time scrubbing on your hands and knees.
A simple wipe-down with a soft cloth keeps your new sanctuary looking brand new for decades.
Beyond the actual vessel, we look at your entire bathroom layout to spot potential slip zones.
This means we can install extra grab bars or slip-resistant flooring treatments while we are working on your main project.
We want you to feel completely confident from the moment you walk through the bathroom door.
As a family-oriented business, we treat your home with the exact same respect we would show our own grandmother's house.
Which is why we put down protective runners on your carpets and wear boot covers throughout the entire visit.
Your peace of mind is our highest priority, from the first handshake to the final walkthrough.

This visit is also the perfect time to ask us all your burning questions about plumbing, permits, and warranties.

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 Oconomowoc.
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.
