Remodeling
A tub to shower conversion removes an existing bathtub and builds a walk-in shower in the same space, with new waterproofing, a shower pan, wall surround and fixtures. AKA Remodeling provides tub to shower conversions in Greenville, SC and within about 100 miles as part of its bathroom remodeling work.
Scope
The tub comes out, the drain and valve are reworked as needed, the floor and walls are waterproofed, and a pan and surround go in. Drain position and wall condition set the scope.
Process
The same order every time, so you always know which trade is in the house tomorrow.
01
Drain position and wall condition checked — they set the scope.
02
Tile or grout-free wall panels, plus standard or custom glass, niches and grab bars.
03
Tub out, walls and floor opened where waterproofing is going.
04
Built up in order, each layer given its cure time.
05
Valve trim, door and hardware last.
Why us
01
Curbless needs the floor recessed or sloped; where the joists will not allow it, a low threshold is the honest answer.
02
Every material goes down the way its maker specifies — that is what the warranty is written against.
03
You get the plan before demolition and a review of the next day’s work at the end of each workday.

Good to know
Can the new shower be curbless?
Often, but a curbless shower needs the floor recessed or sloped so water reaches the drain without a curb, which depends on the subfloor and joists.
How long does a tub to shower conversion take?
Waterproofing and tile each need cure time, so a tiled shower takes longer than a prefabricated surround.
How much does a tub to shower conversion cost?
Drain relocation, tile versus wall panels, standard versus custom glass doors, niches and grab bars are the main cost drivers.
