Start with how
the space works.
Built in, not covered over.
Liner and insert systems go in fast but hide whatever is behind them. We remove the old tub down to the framing, check for water damage, set a properly sloped shower pan, waterproof every surface and finish with tile and frameless glass.
Showers for staying in your home.
For clients planning to stay long term, we build low-threshold or curbless entries, wider openings, built-in benches, blocking for grab bars and handheld shower heads. Done well, an accessible shower looks like a design choice, not a medical one.

Shower and tub conversions questions.
Is a tiled shower better than an insert?
A tiled shower built over a proper waterproofing system lasts longer, can be any size and adds more value to the home. Inserts are faster but limited in size and style.
Can you make a shower accessible without it looking clinical?
Yes. Curbless entries, benches and hidden grab bar blocking can be built into a shower that looks like any high-end bath.
How long does a tub to shower conversion take?
Demolition, waterproofing, tile and glass each take their own time, and custom glass is fabricated after the tile is finished. You get a written schedule before we start.
