Bathtub Replacement in Charlotte, NC: Replace Your Tub With a Walk-In Shower

Bathtub replacement in Charlotte, NC usually means replacing the tub with a walk-in shower. Here is how bathtub removal works, what it costs and what to expect.

Replacing a bathtub in Charlotte: what most homeowners actually choose

When Charlotte homeowners search for bathtub replacement, they are usually dealing with one of three things: a tub that is cracked or stained, a tub that is hard to climb into, or a tub nobody uses anymore. In most of those cases the best fix is not a new tub. It is replacing the tub with a walk-in shower.

We specialize in exactly that. We remove your old tub and its surround, set a low-threshold shower base and install seamless acrylic wall panels, usually connecting to your existing plumbing. Most conversions take 1 to 2 days.

A quick note: we replace tubs with walk-in showers. If you want a new standalone bathtub installed, we may not be the right fit, and we will tell you that honestly on the phone.
