The Penn Lake Park crew we send takes the old bathtub out, seals the new door in and tests it full, all over Luzerne 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 bath should feel like a peaceful retreat instead of a stressful obstacle course.
If you find yourself worrying about slipping every time you step over that high standard tub wall, you are definitely not the alone person in this boat.
Thankfully, we specialize in transforming dangerous bathrooms into spaces of pure peace of mind and cozy relaxation.
Fortunately, our local team travels right to your home in Luzerne County to help you reclaim your independence.
We provide free in-home consultations to evaluate your current setup and figure out exactly what fits your layout.
This means you get a personalized plan without spending a single dime upfront.
By upgrading your bathroom with a secure, low-threshold entry system, you protect your physical health and your peace of mind.
Our high-quality units feature leak-proof doors and contoured seating to make your daily routine simple again.
You deserve to feel secure in your own home, and we are here to make that happen.
To start, these specialized accessible bathing units are not your average plastic tubs.
They are designed with heavy-duty acrylic and sturdy steel frames to ensure they last a lifetime.
This durable construction guarantees that your investment keeps you secure for many years down the road.
Moreover, the built-in waterproof door utilizes a pressurized seal that keeps every drop of water inside the basin.
You never have to worry about messy cleanups or water damage on your bathroom floor.
Which means you can focus entirely on enjoying your warm soak.
On top of that, these units fill and drain incredibly fast compared to old-school models.
We install high-flow faucets and dual-drain systems so you do not have to sit around shivering while waiting for the water to empty.
It is all about making the experience fast, easy, and completely stress-free.
First of all, the most obvious reward is the instant boost to your personal safety.
Most slip-and-fall accidents happen in the wet zones of the home.
Installing a low-step entry system virtually eliminates that hazard, allowing you to bathe without needing constant assistance.
Besides the safety aspects, the therapeutic benefits of deep soaking do wonders for aching muscles and stiff joints.
Our units offer soothing hydrotherapy jets that target your back, legs, and feet.
This lets you ease arthritis pain and sleep much better at night.
Additionally, keeping your independence allows you to stay in the home you love.
Moving into an assisted living facility is incredibly expensive and stressful.
A simple bathroom modification is a fraction of that cost and lets you remain in your familiar neighborhood.
First, our skilled technicians arrive on time and take great care to protect your floors and carpets.
We understand that having contractors in your house can feel disruptive.
Because of this, we work quickly and maintain a clean workspace from start to finish.
Next, we carefully remove your old, outdated tub and inspect the plumbing underneath.
If we find any hidden water damage or mold, we fix it right then and there.
This ensures your new system sits on a rock-solid, healthy foundation.
Finally, we connect the new secure unit to your existing plumbing lines and run thorough tests.
We check every single seal, jet, and drain before we declare the job complete.
Our goal is to leave you with a sparkling clean, fully functional sanctuary.
To help you choose the best fit for your home, we have put together a quick comparison of the common features you can select:
| Feature | Primary Benefit | Ideal For |
|---|---|---|
| Hydrotherapy Jets | Relieves joint pain and muscle stiffness | Arthritis sufferers |
| Heated Seating | Keeps you warm while the tub fills up | Cold winter mornings |
| Quick-Drain Tech | Empties the basin in under two minutes | Busy schedules |
| Handheld Showerhead | Allows for targeted rinsing while seated | Easy hair washing |

We believe in honest work and building lasting relationships with our neighbors.
You get a straightforward price quote with zero hidden fees or high-pressure sales tactics.

Furthermore, our freezing Pennsylvania winters can make joints ache worse than usual.
Having a warm, deep-soaking sanctuary inside your home is the ultimate way to get through those chilly months.
You can escape the cold and melt your stress away in total safety.
Naturally, many folks worry that their current water heater cannot handle a larger soaking unit.
While these tubs do hold more water than a standard shallow basin, we analyze your current system during our visit.
If needed, we can suggest efficient upgrades to ensure you always have plenty of hot water.
Another common question is whether these units will fit through standard bathroom doorways.
Fortunately, we use specialized models designed specifically to slide through tight residential hallways without damaging your drywall.
We measure everything carefully beforehand so there are absolutely no surprises on installation day.
Lastly, some people worry about the upkeep of the acrylic surfaces.
In reality, these non-porous materials resist mold and mildew naturally, making them incredibly easy to wipe down.

You will wonder why you did not make this simple, life-changing switch years ago!
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 Penn Lake Park.
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.
