The Wilhoit crew we send takes the old bathtub out, seals the new door in and tests it full, all over Yavapai 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 standard bathtub can feel like climbing a mountain as you get older or deal with stiff joints.
Fortunately, there is a brilliant way to regain your independence without risking a dangerous slip on wet tiles.
By choosing a specialized low-threshold bathing system, you can transform your daily routine into a relaxing, stress-free ritual.
This smart home upgrade replaces your high-walled basin with a secure, leak-proof door model that you can simply step right into.
As a result, you do not have to lift your legs over a high ledge anymore, which instantly minimizes your chances of falling.
We travel right to your home in Yavapai County to measure your space and give you a no-obligation estimate on the spot.
Our friendly local team understands that every home has unique plumbing setups and structural quirks.
Which is why we take our time to inspect your current bathroom layout and explain how these accessible sealed doors keep water inside the tub.
You will receive a clear plan tailored to your budget, helping you make a confident decision for your long-term peace of mind.
These advanced bathroom fixtures rely on a heavy-duty, water-tight pressure seal to ensure that your bathroom floor stays bone dry during use.
This means you can sit down on a built-in, contoured seat and fill the basin around you while enjoying a warm, deep soak.
Because the door locks securely from the inside, you never have to worry about accidental leaks or messy cleanup afterwards.
To give you a better idea of how these units compare to traditional setups, we have broken down the key differences below.
| Feature | Standard Bathtub | Step-In Safety Tub |
|---|---|---|
| Step-In Height | Typically 14 to 18 inches | Ultra-low 2 to 6 inches |
| Seating | Floor level (hard to rise from) | Elevated, chair-height bench |
| Safety Features | None built-in | Grab bars, non-slip floor, fast drain |
Another excellent perk of these designs is the integration of high-flow taps and rapid drainage systems.
This allows you to empty the basin in a fraction of the time compared to old-school plumbing setups.
Consequently, you will not have to sit there shivering while waiting for the water to drain before you can open the door and step out.
On top of that, many models come equipped with soothing hydrotherapy jets that target sore muscles and aching joints.
This brings the luxury of a personal spa directly into your home, helping you unwind after a long day.
Our skilled crew handles the entire hookup process, ensuring your water heater and drainage lines can support these premium features.
Trying to install one of these heavy, complex units as a weekend DIY project usually leads to massive headaches and expensive plumbing mistakes.
Instead, hiring experienced local technicians guarantees that your subfloor is properly reinforced to handle the weight of a full basin.
We also make sure the electrical connections for the therapeutic pumps are completely safe, sealed, and up to code.
Furthermore, we take care of removing and disposing of your old, heavy cast-iron or fiberglass tub without damaging your walls.
This saves you the backbreaking labor of dragging heavy debris out through narrow hallways.
We respect your living space and always clean up every speck of dust before we pack up our tools.
We know that many folks in our tight-knit community of 933 residents are watching their expenses carefully.
With a median household income of $35,242 in the local 86362 postal zone, finding affordable, high-quality home improvements is incredibly important.
That is why we offer home consultations to help you find a solution that fits your financial comfort zone perfectly.
Every homeowner has different physical needs, which is why these units are highly customizable to fit your specific mobility requirements.
For instance, you can choose the exact placement of heavy-duty safety grab bars to give you maximum leverage when sitting or standing.
This lets you customize your setup so that it feels completely natural and supportive for your body type.
Additionally, you can opt for heated seating surfaces that keep you warm while the tub fills up with soothing water.
Which means you will feel cozy from the very second you step inside and close the secure latch.
We can show you all these amazing options during our visit, letting you touch material samples and see how they look in your space.
Our goal is to make your daily routine feel like a pampering escape rather than a stressful chore.
By choosing premium acrylic materials, you get a surface that resists mold, mildew, and stubborn soap scum.
As a result, keeping your new sanctuary clean requires nothing more than a quick wipe down with a soft cloth.

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 Wilhoit.
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.
