The Woodward crew we send takes the old bathtub out, seals the new door in and tests it full, all over Dallas 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.
Every single day we take our daily bath for granted until a slip or a stubborn joint makes that high step over the porcelain ledge feel like climbing Mount Everest. This is why many homeowners in the local region are actively seeking a safer, much more relaxing way to wash up without the constant fear of taking a nasty tumble. Fortunately, you can reclaim your independence and peace of mind by choosing a specialized upgrade that features a leak-proof door, a low entry threshold, and a built-in seat.
If you want to stay in your beloved home for years to come, making this simple change in your bathroom layout is one of the smartest moves you can make. Our dedicated crew travels right to your doorstep in Dallas County to assess your current setup and layout. We offer completely complimentary, upfront pricing estimates to help you figure out the best path forward without any pressure or hidden fees.
Imagine sliding onto a secure, contoured bench and letting warm water wrap around your shoulders while you simply sit back and relax. This incredible transformation is not just about adding a fancy new fixture to your home. Actually, it is about preserving your freedom, protecting your safety, and giving your family complete peace of mind.
When you decide to replace your old, outdated basin with a modern, easy-access unit, the actual process requires a lot of precision and hands-on skill. First, our team will carefully remove your existing enclosure while making sure we do not damage the surrounding drywall or flooring. Then, we inspect the underlying pipes and subfloor to guarantee everything is structurally sound and free from hidden water damage.
Because these specialized deep-soaking basins hold a lot of water, your existing water heater might need a quick checkup to ensure it can keep up with the new volume. We also look at your drain system because a larger unit requires fast-draining technology to let you exit the bath quickly without sitting in cold water. Our expert installers handle every single detail, from the plumbing hookups to the final waterproof sealing.
| Key Feature | Direct Benefit for You |
|---|---|
| Low-step entry door | Eliminates the risk of tripping while entering |
| Contoured built-in seating | Allows you to bathe comfortably while sitting upright |
| High-capacity fast drain | Minimizes wait time when you are ready to get out |
| Sturdy grab bars | Provides solid handholds for maximum stability |
To help you understand the full scope of this project, we put together a simple breakdown of the typical steps involved in a standard conversion. This handy guide shows you exactly what goes into a professional installation from start to finish.
Since every bathroom has its own unique footprint, you must select a model that fits your specific physical needs and space limitations. For instance, some folks prefer a compact design that fits perfectly into a standard five-foot alcove. Other people might want a wider model with hydrotherapy jets to help soothe aching muscles after a long day of work.
Beyond the basic dimensions, you also get to choose between different door configurations, including outward-swinging doors for easier wheelchair transfers or inward-swinging doors that save precious floor space. We will help you navigate all these technical choices during our face-to-face consultation. This personalized approach ensures you get the exact features you need without paying for extras you will never use.
On top of that, we always keep the local architecture in mind when planning these projects. Whether you live in a cozy historic home or a modern ranch, we know how to adapt the plumbing to work flawlessly with your existing system. This means you get a gorgeous, functional upgrade that looks like it was always meant to be there.
Because we live and work right here in the heart of the Hawkeye State, we take immense pride in helping our neighbors live safer, happier lives.

We are always just a quick phone call away if you ever have questions or need a helping hand.
Yes, because these specialized enclosures are specifically designed to match the footprint of a standard traditional bathtub. This means we can usually slide the new unit right into your existing alcove without needing to knock down any major walls or rebuild your entire bathroom layout. We also use matching filler panels to create a seamless, built-in look that blends perfectly with your walls.
In most cases, our skilled team can complete the entire removal and setup process in just one to two days. We work quickly and efficiently to minimize any disruption to your daily routine because we know how tough it is to live without a working bathroom. Once we finish the job, we do a thorough test run to ensure there are absolutely no leaks before we pack up our tools.
The total investment depends on the specific model you choose, the condition of your current plumbing, and any extra electrical work needed for heated jets. This is precisely why we offer a no-obligation estimate where we inspect your space and give you an honest, transparent price. We believe in open communication, so you will never have to worry about surprise fees or high-pressure sales tactics.
Now is the perfect time to stop worrying about bathroom slips and start enjoying a relaxing, independent lifestyle again.

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 Woodward.
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.
