Tub-to-Shower Conversions in Buckley, WA

Tub-to-Shower Conversion in Buckley, WA

A lot of homes in Buckley have bathtubs that just do not get used. I hear it all the time. The tub sits there taking up space, it is hard to step over, and nobody in the house actually takes baths. We convert those unused tubs into walk-in showers that are easier to get into and a better use of the footprint. I have done these conversions in the older downtown homes, in the 1980s and 1990s builds around Finlandia, and in the newer neighborhoods on the west side of town.

Tub-to-shower conversions in Buckley run between $13,000 and $28,000. The range depends on tile choices, fixture upgrades, whether we are adding a bench or niche, and the condition of the existing plumbing. In older Buckley homes, the drain and supply lines sometimes need updating, which adds to the cost but solves problems you would rather not deal with later. Most conversions take about 2 weeks from demo to done. I walk you through every detail before we start. Our tub-to-shower conversion page has more on what is involved.

Because we are modifying plumbing and often electrical for vent fans or lighting, tub-to-shower conversions in Buckley require a building permit. Buckley's permit office is efficient and easy to work with. I submit the application, coordinate inspections, and make sure everything is up to code. You do not have to set foot in City Hall.
