Bathtub to walk-in shower conversion in 1 to 2 days
How long does a tub-to-shower conversion take?
Usually 1 to 2 days. We take out the bathtub and install a leak-proof BestBath roll-in shower you can step or roll into, backed by BestBath's 30-year warranty; we are an authorized BestBath dealer. It is the fastest fix for a tub that has become hard to step over, and the Safety Refresh price above is the starting point.
Walk-in showers, roll-in showers and curbless showers
What is the difference between a walk-in shower and a roll-in shower?
A walk-in shower has a low or no threshold you step over. A roll-in shower is curbless, a zero-entry shower with no threshold at all, so a wheelchair or walker goes straight in. We fit both with a fold-down bench, a handheld shower and grab bars. Ask us for a tiled shower designed around the room, or a BestBath system for speed.
Why does a zero-entry shower matter?
It removes the step, which is the tripping hazard, and makes getting in and out safer whether you walk, use a walker or use a chair.
Handicap and ADA compliant bathrooms at home
Can you build an ADA compliant bathroom in a house?
Yes. ADA is written for public buildings, but its dimensions are the right ones at home too, and we build to them: grab bars at the right heights, a 60-inch turning circle where the room allows, doorways widened to 32 inches or more, and to 36 inches on a custom remodel, a comfort-height toilet, a shower seat and a handheld shower. A wheelchair accessible vanity that looks like a standard cabinet, with clearance underneath.
Who are the handicap bathroom remodel contractors at LiveWell?
Our own crews, employed by us, licensed and insured, who do nothing but accessibility work: design, construction and installation under one contractor, one plan, one number. We do not outsource the bathroom to a subcontractor.
Bathroom remodels for seniors and aging in place
What should a bathroom have for someone staying at home as they age?
Start with the shower: curbless, with a bench and a handheld. Then grab bars at the toilet and in the shower, a comfort-height toilet, a doorway a walker fits through, open storage at eye level, lighting that comes on by itself, and non-slip flooring. We plan the room for the needs that are coming, not only the ones today, so it does not need doing twice.
Grab bars and shower safety without a remodel
Can you install grab bars without remodeling the bathroom?
Yes. Grab bars, a shower seat, a handheld shower, a raised toilet seat and anti-slip flooring, fitted into the bathroom you have, usually in one visit. The small job that makes the room safe this week.
Accessible bathrooms in Houston homes
What do you do most in Houston?
Tub-to-shower conversions with grab bars and a fold-down bench, roll-in showers for a wheelchair, and curbless tile showers, from inside the Loop to Katy. Many of our Houston veterans have had a roll-in shower and the doorways paid for by the VA's HISA grant; our team walks them through it.
Where in Houston do you work?

Paying for an accessible bathroom
Does Medicare, insurance or the VA pay for a bathroom remodel?
Medicare's own policy says home modifications are not covered. Veterans: the VA's HISA grant is written for exactly this, a roll-in shower and the grab bars, doorway and plumbing that go with it, up to its limit; our HISA grant guide explains the packet and the wait. Texas waiver programs cover bathroom changes up to their own limits; our who pays for it page lists them. Most of our projects are paid for by the family, with financing and payment plans available.

Yes. A tub-to-shower conversion uses the tub's own footprint, so the room does not need to grow.
What should I look for in a contractor?
The most important things to consider when looking for a contractor are: has the expertise and the resources to quickly and professionally get the project done, the ability to help through the entire project from design to installation, and has strong references and completion of previous projects to show.
Why is a zero-entry shower important?
Installing a zero entry shower is one of the most important changes you can make in your bathroom for mobility. A zero-entry shower has no threshold and removes all tripping hazards making it safer to enter and exit the shower.
How long does it take to remodel a bathroom?
Depending on the size of the project, timelines vary by bathroom. LiveWell prides ourselves on being able to start on projects quickly.
What bathroom modifications should I be considering?
Zero entry showers, grab bars, elevated toilets, widened doorways, and the addition of grab bars are a few of the modifications that we recommend the most.
Has a wheelchair changed your needs?
Maybe you or a loved one needs a more accessible bathroom? We are creative with modifications. We can widen doors, use barn doors, replace tubs with showers.
Is it difficult to reach what you need?
Maybe you can't reach the faucet , toiletries, or get close to the mirror? We can add open storage, eye-level shelves, automated lighting, add under-sink clearance, and move towel racks.
Are you bathing less frequently?
Maybe you are afraid of falling or have difficulty accessing the shower? We can help with curbless (zero-step) showers, grab bars, shower seats, handheld showers, and transfer benches.
