Tub-to-Shower Conversions

    Modern Bathroom Conversions at Affordable Rates

    Walk-in Shower Conversions in Plainville, Southington & Farmington CT

    Are you tired of having to climb into a tub just to take a shower? We don't blame you. Not only are bathtubs inconvenient (especially when you never actually use them to take a bath), but they can also be one of the most dangerous places in the home!


    According to the CDC, nearly 22 million people are injured in their bathtubs in a given year. From teenagers to the elderly, one wrong step can cost you thousands in medical bills over the course of your life. Besides your own personal safety, showers create more space and personalization than a tub. At First Choice Pros, we seamlessly handle shower-to-tub conversions so you can enjoy a new change in the bathroom.

    How To Convert Your Bathtub

    In order to install your new shower, you first have to get rid of that old tub. This can be a large job to complete if you've never done it before. At First Choice, you can watch somebody convert your tub into a shower in no time. The tub will be removed safely with no damage to your home as we transform it into a new shower with a few steps.

    Turn off your water.

    Remove faucet and knobs from tub.

    Disconnect drain. We may need to get into the basement or crawlspace for this.

    Pry at least 8 inches of tile from above the tub.

    Cut through drywall. Cutting the studs is a no!

    Why You Should Convert Your Tub

    Converting your tub into a shower is a popular homeowner's choice forcustom bathroom design. It makes your bathroom more comfortable and accessible which is a huge plus for value. First Choice Pros could help you find materials to buy including which new shower you want and install it for you. Afterwards, you can enjoy the benefits of having a new shower instead of an old tub. You may also notice the following benefits:

    More room to spare. This is especially important in smaller bathrooms. Showers can take up to half the space compared to a bathroom. A new towel rack? A shelf for some inspirational reading material? Enjoy the extra space!

    Comfort of walking right in. Step-over lips are dangerous with bathtubs. Some of the more popular shower options today have no lip or curb at all. Not only is this a sleek and stylish design, but it can be especially beneficial to those with mobility issues.

    Water efficiency. The average bath can use up to 50 gallons of water, while the average 10 minute shower uses half that amount. Many of the newer shower head models are water-efficient with increased pressure.
