A tub to shower conversion changes more than your bathroom. It changes your morning. Most Conroe homeowners we work with have not touched their tub in years. It just sits there. It stains. The caulk fails. Water sneaks behind the walls. We replace it with a walk-in shower built properly from the subfloor up. One day. Licensed crew. Lifetime warranty. If you live near Grand Central Park, Harper’s Preserve, or anywhere along Lake Conroe, you already know what these homes are worth. Protecting that investment starts with knowing who you let inside. We are a locally owned crew based in Conroe, TX. We have served Montgomery County homeowners for years. Every person who walks into your home is our employee. Not a subcontractor. Not a third-party referral.
Our Bathtub Installation Service Apart From Every Competitor
Every national chain and many regional companies use subcontractors. That means the person who sells you the job is not the person who does it. The crew on your job changes project to project. Accountability gets lost between layers. Every person on your project is our direct employee. They are background-checked. We trained them. We stand behind their work
How we are different?
How Much Does Home Depot Charge to Replace a Tub?
Home Depot’s installation service works through third-party contractors. Their base installation starts around $1,000 and increases with add-ons. The contractor who shows up is not their employee. Warranty claims go through Home Depot first, then to the installer. That middle layer creates delays. With a local Conroe crew, you call one number. The same team that installed it comes back.
Can any wall support a floating vanity?
Not without preparation. Studs need to be in the right location, or blocking needs to be added first. We check the wall structure at the consultation before recommending a floating installation.
Does a new bathroom vanity increase home value in Conroe?
Yes. Remodeling Magazine’s Cost vs. Value Report consistently shows bathroom updates returning 60 to 70 percentage of their cost at resale. In a market like Conroe where buyers have options, an updated bathroom moves a listing faster and supports a stronger asking price.
Bathtub Installation services we offer
Standard Alcove Tub to Walk-In Shower
This is the most common conversion across Conroe and Lake Conroe area homes. The alcove tub comes out. A fully waterproofed walk-in shower goes in. Most homeowners choose either a single fixed showerhead or a combination rainfall and handheld setup. This conversion works in any standard 5-foot alcove. It does not require structural changes to walls. Most jobs finish in one day.
Garden Tub to Large Custom Shower
Garden tubs take up a third of a master bathroom. They look impressive in listing photos from 1998. In real daily life, nobody uses them. Converting a garden tub in homes across Grand Central Park or Harper’s Preserve creates a master shower that actually fits two people. It adds usable square footage to the room. Buyers notice it. This conversion runs one to two days depending on tile complexity.
Senior-Safe Walk-In Shower With Accessibility Features
What type of tub is best for seniors? Walk-in tubs get attention, but a curbless walk-in shower is often the better answer. A walk-in tub requires you to step inside, fill the tub around you, then wait to drain before you exit. That is a long time sitting in cooling water. A curbless shower has no threshold to step over. You walk straight in. Combined with a built-in bench and properly placed grab bars, it is the safest daily bathing option available. According to the CDC, more than 235,000 people visit emergency rooms every year because of bathroom injuries. Most happen getting in or out of a tub. We install grab bars at the correct load-bearing positions, set non-slip tile, and build benches at the right height. This is a conversation we have with every family making this decision.
Frameless Glass Enclosure Option
A frameless glass enclosure makes a small bathroom look significantly larger. No metal frame cuts the room in half. The sightline stays open. It is also easier to clean than a framed unit because there is no metal track collecting soap residue. Frameless glass costs more than framed or curtain options. For most homeowners in Evergreen or Jacob’s Reserve who plan to stay long-term, it is worth the difference.
Before & After bathtub replacement with shower in Conroe — Real Homes, Real Results
Our Bathtub remodel Process
Step 1: Free In-Home Assessment
We come to your home. We look at the tub, the walls, and the floor around it. We take measurements. We ask what you want and what your budget looks like. You get a written quote before we leave. No estimates that change after you sign. No phone quotes based on guesses. Most homeowners in Jacob’s Reserve, Imperial Oaks, and Meadows at Imperial Oaks get scheduled within 48 hours of calling.
Step 2: Design and Material Selection
You pick your tile, glass type, fixtures, and finish. We bring samples. We show real options at different price points. The right choice depends on your bathroom size, your budget, and how long you plan to stay in the home.
Step 3: Permits and Pre-Build Preparation
Most straight conversions in Conroe do not require a building permit. If your project moves plumbing lines, Montgomery County building codes may apply. We research requirements for your specific address and file everything at no extra cost to you.
Step 4: Full Tub Removal and Subfloor Inspection
This is the most important stage of the entire bathroom renovation process. The old tub comes out completely. Not a liner. Not a resurface. The tub, drain, and surround all come out. We inspect the subfloor immediately and photograph what we find. We discuss any repair before adding a dollar to your bill. We do not build a new shower over a damaged floor. Can a handyman replace a tub? Technically yes — but a handyman cannot pull a building permit in Texas. If your subfloor needs structural repair, Texas law requires a licensed contractor. The savings upfront often become a serious problem within a year.
Step 5: Waterproofing, Tile, and Shower Build
Every wall gets a waterproof membrane before any tile goes up. Conroe and Montgomery County sit in a high-humidity climate. A shower without proper waterproofing behind the walls fails within three to five years. We have seen it in homes across Bentwater and April Sound where previous crews cut corners.
Step 6: Final Walkthrough and Warranty Activation
We run the shower. We check every connection and seal. We walk through the finished space with you. We answer every question before we pack up. Your warranty starts the day we finish — not the day you signed the contract.
