Question 1

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

Accepted Answer

Tub-to-shower conversions often finish in a day once materials are on site. Hidden rot or plumbing repairs can take longer. We tell you that on the visit.

Question 2

Do you install over existing tile?

Accepted Answer

Usually no. The usual method is demo to the studs, then rebuild and set acrylic or Palisade Tile acrylic. Overlay is rare, and only if we both agree.

Question 3

Can I keep a tub somewhere?

Accepted Answer

If there is room for both, a California bath keeps a soaking tub and adds a walk-in shower in the same wet area.

Question 4

Where do you work?

Accepted Answer

Orange, Los Angeles, Riverside & San Bernardino Counties. Based in Placentia. In-home estimate — no showroom runaround.

Question 5

Can a tub-to-shower conversion include a seat and grab bars?

Accepted Answer

Yes. A tub-to-shower conversion can give you a low step-in shower with a shower seat, a handheld sprayer and grab bars.

Question 6

Why do you open the walls to the studs?

Accepted Answer

So we can find and fix what's behind the old walls. Tile that looks fine from the doorway can have damaged backing behind it, so the usual path is demo to the studs, then rebuild with a new valve and drain and set the new walls.

Question 7

What does your warranty cover?

Accepted Answer

Limited lifetime warranty on the shower base and wall materials, plus a 10-year workmanship warranty. For the original homeowner; not transferable.

Question 8

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

Accepted Answer

Tub-to-shower conversions and tub replacements start at $10,000. Full bathroom remodels are quoted per project. Request a free estimate at newbath-usa.com.

Question 9

Will the new shower fit in the same space as my tub?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The shower goes where the tub was, so the room keeps its layout and you get more room to stand.

Question 10

What wall options can I pick for the new shower?

Accepted Answer

Full Wall Acrylic Panel or Palisade Tile acrylic, in marble, stone, subway or solid looks. We bring samples to your free in-home estimate so you can see them in your own light.

Question 11

Can you replace an old fiberglass tub-and-shower unit?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We remove the old fiberglass unit, usually open all three shower walls to the studs, and rebuild with new backing, a solid pan and acrylic walls.

Question 12

Can I finance a tub-to-shower conversion?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Monthly financing available through Acorn Finance for qualified buyers; rates and terms depend on credit approval.
