Tub-to-Shower Conversion in Toledo, OH
Replace a hard-to-use tub with a safe, open walk-in shower — built with moisture-proof backing so it lasts.
What it is, in plain language
A tub-to-shower conversion removes your existing bathtub completely — tub, surround, and whatever's behind it — and replaces it with a walk-in shower sized to your room. We open the wet wall, fix anything hiding behind it, install moisture-proof backing on every wet wall, and finish with grout-free acrylic wall systems, a low-threshold base, and the doors, seats, and grab bars that fit how you actually use the room.
This is for you if…
- Homeowners who rarely take baths and are tired of stepping over a tub wall
- Anyone planning ahead for safety or aging in place — for themselves or a parent
- Owners of older Toledo-area homes with tight, dated bathrooms other crews won't touch
- Homeowners whose last contractor started a bathroom and never finished it
Probably not, if…
- You want to keep at least one bathtub in the house and this is your only one (resale buyers with young kids often look for a tub)
- You're looking for a same-day, lowest-bid liner slapped over the old tub
- Your home is outside our 60-mile service radius around Toledo
Problems this solves
- Stepping over a 15-inch tub wall has become a daily risk
- A dated tub/tile combo from the 1950s–1980s that no amount of scrubbing fixes
- Grout lines that grow mold no matter what you do
- Hidden moisture damage behind the old tub surround
- A tight five-foot bathroom where a standard 'kit' doesn't fit right
What's included
- Full tear-out of the existing tub and surround — no liners over old problems
- Inspection and repair quote for any hidden moisture or framing damage we uncover
- Moisture-proof backing board on every wet wall (never bare drywall)
- Grout-free acrylic wall system in your choice of patterns
- Low-threshold or barrier-free shower base sized to your alcove
- Fixtures, valve, shower head (rain or handheld), and glass or curtain — your pick
- Optional built-in seat, corner shelves, and blocked-and-anchored grab bars
- Haul-away and a broom-clean job site every day
Timeline
Most conversions take a few working days once materials arrive — we'll give you a written range at your estimate, and we don't leave for the next job until yours is done.
Honest cost range
Most tub-to-shower conversions in the Toledo area land between $8,000 and $15,000, with a typical project around $12,000. Keeping the existing 60" footprint keeps you at the lower end; barrier-free entries, moved plumbing, and premium wall patterns move you up.
Full pricing guide →How the project runs
Every project follows the Built-Right Bath Method — the same four steps whether it's a grab bar or a full bathroom.
1. Listen First
Your free in-home consult starts with us being quiet. What's wrong with the room, how you use it, what you want it to become — the plan comes from your answers, not our template.
2. Laser-Measure & Plan
We laser-measure the actual room — including the out-of-square walls every older home has — and put scope, materials, price, and a timeline range in writing.
3. Moisture-Proof Build
Full tear-out, honest inspection of what's behind the walls, and moisture-proof backing on every wet wall before a single panel goes up. Our crew stays on your job until it's done.
4. Finish & Stand Behind It
Tight seams, clean caulk lines, and a broom-clean site. You receive a clearly documented project scope and a final walkthrough before the job is considered complete.
