Tub-to-Shower Conversions

Trade the Tub for the Shower You’ll Actually Use

Out with the 15-inch climb, in with a safe, modern walk-in shower — converted in days, quoted in one all-in number, backed for life against leaks.

That Tub Is Costing You More Than Space

Think about the last time anyone actually took a bath in it. For most households, the tub is a 15-inch wall you climb over twice a day to take a shower — on wet porcelain, holding a towel bar that was never meant to hold you.

A tub-to-shower conversion replaces that entire arrangement in days: tub out, modern low-threshold shower in, with solid-surface walls, Delta fixtures, and slip-resistant flooring that turn the riskiest spot in the house into the safest.

From $6,000, all-in. Demolition, haul-away (yes, even cast iron), waterproofing, materials, installation, and cleanup — one number, quoted in one visit.

How the Conversion Works

1. Consultation and exact quote. We visit your home, measure the space, check what we can about plumbing and structure, and give you a single all-in price.

2. Demo day. We protect your floors and hallway, cut out and remove the old tub and surround, and haul everything away.

3. Build it right. New shower base set level, full waterproofing system, solid-surface wall panels, fixtures, and any options you chose — seating, niches, glass, or grab bars over reinforced blocking.

4. Walkthrough and warranty. We clean the site, walk you through everything, and back the installation with a lifetime leak-free warranty.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a tub-to-shower conversion cost in Omaha?

Tub-to-shower conversions with Level Access Baths start around $6,000 all-in. The final price depends on the size of the space, what we find when the tub comes out, and options like glass doors, seating, or storage niches. One number covers demolition, haul-away, materials, installation, and cleanup.

How long does a tub-to-shower conversion take?

Most conversions are completed in a matter of days. Because our own installers handle every step — no subcontractors — the schedule we commit to at the estimate is the schedule we keep.

What happens to my old cast iron tub?

We cut it out and haul it away — it's included in the price. Cast iron tubs are heavy and take extra work to remove safely, which is exactly why you want a team that's done it hundreds of times rather than a general handyman.

Will a conversion hurt my home's resale value?

For most Omaha homes, no — and it often helps. The exception real-estate agents cite is having no tub anywhere in the house, which matters to families with small children. If you have a second bathroom with a tub, converting the primary to a walk-in shower is one of the most broadly appealing upgrades you can make. Buyers in their 50s and up actively look for it.

Can the conversion be made wheelchair accessible?

Yes. A standard conversion gives you a low threshold; a zero-entry conversion removes the barrier entirely for roll-in access. We'll talk through which is right for your situation at the consultation — and if an OT or discharge planner gave you specs, we build to them exactly.
