The Pheasant Branch crew we send takes the old bathtub out, seals the new door in and tests it full, all over Dane 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.
Are you tired of tripping over high tub walls every single morning? Fortunately, our local crew builds accessible bathing stations right in your bathroom so you can soak safely.
By upgrading your space, you prevent nasty slips and falls that happen on slippery porcelain. This lets you enjoy a worry-free rinse without needing any help from family members.
First we come out to measure your old enclosure and check the water lines. This helps us figure out the exact fit for your bathroom layout.
Afterwards our team removes the heavy cast iron basin without wrecking your tile walls. That means your home stays clean while we tackle the heavy lifting outside.
Many folks in Dane County want to stay in their houses as they age gracefully. Putting in a low-threshold soak box gives you back your independence every day.
Plus the hydrotherapy jets soothe aching joints after a long walk through the local parks. You get deep tissue relief right in your own home without driving anywhere.
When our truck arrives on your street we bring all the heavy gear right inside. Such careful handling protects your floors from scratches while we work hard.
Then we hook up the plumbing lines to make sure everything drains super fast. This clever setup stops standing water from pooling around your feet during a shower.
Older properties often feature narrow doorways that make big projects tricky to pull off. Yet our experienced builders know how to maneuver large pieces through cramped hallways easily.
Sometimes we need to adjust the subfloor to support the massive weight of a filled basin. Doing this extra work prevents sagging floors down the road and keeps your house structurally sound.
Once the unit sits firmly in place we run multiple leak tests immediately. This thorough check gives you total peace of mind before we pack up our tools.
Additionally we teach you how the fast-drain valves work so you never wait long. You can step right out of the basin safely once the water empties completely.
Standard tubs require a high step that can spell disaster for unsteady legs. Meanwhile our custom accessible models feature a swinging door that drops down low.
Check out this quick breakdown to see how they stack up against each other:
| Feature | Old Style Tub | New Accessible Basin |
|---|---|---|
| Step Height | Sixteen to Twenty Inches | Under Three Inches |
| Safety Rails | Usually None | Built-in Grab Bars |
| Soaking Depth | Very Shallow | Deep Ergonomic Seat |
Switching to a safer design lets you bathe without stressing your knees or hips. You will wonder why you waited so long to make this smart home improvement.
Investing in your home safety adds real value to your property over time. When potential buyers tour your house they notice these high-end accessibility upgrades instantly.
Furthermore preventing just one bathroom injury saves you thousands in hospital bills. That makes this project a wise choice for your health and your wallet.
Nobody wants a medical-looking hospital basin ruining their beautiful home aesthetic. Instead our units come in various colors that match your existing vanity and tile.
Matching your fixtures creates a stunning visual harmony throughout the entire room. You achieve ultimate coziness while keeping your daily routine entirely safe.
Acrylic surfaces resist mold buildup much better than old grout lines ever could. Wiping down the walls takes only a few seconds with a damp cloth.
Consequently you spend less time scrubbing and more time relaxing in the warm water. This low-maintenance aspect appeals to busy homeowners who hate endless chores.
Because these basins hold a lot of liquid your water heater needs enough capacity. We always check your current tank size before starting any plumbing modifications.
Sometimes we install an inline water heater to keep your bath steaming hot longer. This nifty addition ensures your hydrotherapy session never turns chilly halfway through.
Whirlpool features demand dedicated electrical circuits to run safely without tripping your breaker box. Our licensed electricians handle all the wiring according to local building codes.
Safely managing the electricity protects your family from any unexpected short circuits. You can turn on the massage jets knowing the system is fully secure.
Living in an area with a population of 17,442 means you appreciate friendly neighborhood service. We treat every single client like our own family member 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 Pheasant Branch.
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.
