The Purdy crew we send takes the old bathtub out, seals the new door in and tests it full, all over Pierce 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.
You want to take a long, relaxing soak without worrying about tripping over a tall barrier. Falling in the bathroom scares a lot of folks around here, especially when the floor gets slick. Getting a fresh sanctuary setup put into your home fixes that problem right away, so you can just enjoy your evening stress-free.
Truth is, nobody likes slipping on wet tiles while trying to clean up after a hard day. Low-step entrance basins let you walk right into your warm wash space without lifting your legs high. That simple change protects your knees and hips, which gives you total confidence every single morning.
Upgrading your bathroom setup makes your daily life way easier than it used to be. Old standard basins force you to balance on one foot, which gets pretty risky as the years roll by. Well, newer sealed door wash units take all that heavy strain away from your joints.
Honestly, I used to see my own folks struggle with high basin walls all the time. Installing a sealed access soaking system gave them back their freedom, and it totally changed their daily mood. You get to keep your privacy and enjoy your warm baths without asking anyone for help.
These deep basins also keep the warm water up around your chest level. That deep warmth soothes those sore muscles and aching back joints after a chilly afternoon outdoors. Sealed side doors lock tight so water stays on the inside where it belongs, keeping your subfloor bone dry.
Safety features inside these specialized units are not just for show. Fast draining tech clears out all that water quickly so you do not sit there shivering while waiting to open the door. That speedy drain action means you get out fast, stay warm, and get on with your day.
Built-in grab bars give your hands a solid place to hold while standing up or sitting down. Non-slip floor textures grip your feet firmly even when the soap gets a bit extra bubbly... which happens to all of us. Heated seat options keep your back warm while the deep shell fills up with steaming water.
Think about how nice it feels to sit comfortably instead of struggling down to the floor level. Raised interior seating makes sitting down and standing back up completely effortless. You get high-end refinement without sacrificing any of your personal safety inside your favorite room.
Many homes in this lovely coastal spot near the Henderson Bay area feature classic floor plans. Nestled in Pierce County, this quiet community of 1,682 hard-working people deserves top quality home upgrades. With a median household income of $65,833 across the regional ZIP codes area, investing in home safety just makes sense for long term value.
Fitting a new deep soaking setup into an existing alcove takes proper planning and experienced hands. Plumbing lines need right alignment so your supply fills fast and drains out without any annoying clogs. Our team measures your space down to the fraction of an inch to make sure everything fits smooth.
Standard conversions usually take up the exact same footprint as your old standard tub unit. That means we do not have to tear out all your walls or ruin your existing tile layout. You get a fresh look and safer access without turnin' your whole house into a messy construction site for weeks.
Choosing the right features for your wash area setup helps you get the exact experience you want. Some options focus on simple soaking, while others add soothing air jets to massage your legs. Look at this quick feature comparison to see what fits your lifestyle best.
| Sanctuary Style | Main Advantage | Best Daily Benefit |
|---|---|---|
| Deep Soaker Base | Simple high-wall entry door design | Warm chest-high immersion for simple joint relief |
| Air Jet Massage Unit | Gentle warm air bubbles around feet | Sooths tired leg muscles and improves skin touch |
| Combined Hydrotherapy Tank | Targeted water jets plus fast drain valve | Full body physical relaxation with zero wait time |
Every option brings something special to your daily self-care routine. Pick the features that match your physical needs, so every bath feels like a high-end retreat. Plus, upgrading your fixtures boosts the overall re-sale appeal of your house down the road.
You might wonder how we swap out your old heavy basin for a modern tall-wall unit. First, we protect your hallway floors with heavy covers so no dirt gets tracked inside your house. Then, we carefully disconnect your old plumbing fixtures and remove the outdated wall unit without damaging your drywall.
Older pipes often need a little extra love to handle fast-draining systems properly. We inspect your existing drain lines and water supply lines right away. If anything looks worn down, we fix it up on the spot so you never have to deal with surprise leaks later.
Reinforcing the floor sub-structure comes next because a deep filled unit carries some real weight. We make sure the wooden joists underneath your floor can support the full setup safely. That extra care prevents squeaks and ensures your new unit stays completely level for decades.
Placing the main shell requires absolute precision so the entry door opens and shuts smoothly. We adjust the heavy duty leveling feet under the base until every side sits perfectly straight. A level unit keeps the heavy silicone door seals pressing tight against the frame to stop water leaks.
Trying to install one of these tall door units yourself often leads to huge headaches. Standard plumbing parts from big box stores do not always match up with high-flow drain systems. Hiring skilled local crews prevents water damage, bad seals, and broken electrical connections for jet pumps.
Improper seal placement can let hidden water leak right into your floor sub-structure over time. That leads to soft spots, mold growth, and expensive repair bills down the road. Professional installers use high-grade materials that lock out moisture completely around every edge.
Working with experienced installer teams saves you time, money, and lots of unnecessary frustration. We bring all the specialized tools, heavy lifting equipment, and trade knowledge directly to your front door. You do not have to lift a single finger or worry about hauling heavy debris away.
We handle the heavy lifting, disposal of your crusty old tub, and all the tricky plumbing adjustments. That means your modern, safe soaking area gets set up fast and clean. You get peace of mind knowing the whole job complies with all local building codes.
Taking the first step toward a safer bathroom layout is completely free and easy. We come right to your home, check out your current setup, and talk about what features fit your daily needs best. You receive a clear, straightforward quote with zero pressure or hidden charges attached.
Do not wait for an accidental slip or fall to make a smart change in your home. Upgrading your space brings back your independence and gives your family complete peace of mind. Reach out now to claim your fast, easy, no-obligation free estimate and start soaking safely real soon.
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 Purdy.
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.
