Tub-to-Shower Conversions in Fife, WA
Fife homeowners call me regularly about converting tubs they never use into walk-in showers. The 1960s and 1970s homes here have steel or cast iron tubs in tight 5-by-8-foot bathrooms. Removing that tub and building a proper shower opens up the room and makes it far more functional. In the 1980s homes near the Milton border, the fiberglass tub-shower combos are yellowed and cracked after 40 years. Either way, a conversion makes the bathroom better.
Tub-to-shower conversions in Fife run $11,000 to $24,000. The price depends on the tub material, the condition of the existing plumbing, and the tile and fixture selections. In the older homes, I replace galvanized drain lines while the walls are open. I install a waterproof membrane, tile the shower floor to ceiling, and finish with frameless glass. Most Fife conversions take 5 to 8 days. My tub-to-shower conversion page covers the step-by-step process.
Fife requires a plumbing permit for tub-to-shower conversions that involve moving drain or supply lines. I handle the permit application and inspections through the city. I always check the subfloor under the old tub for water damage before building the new shower.
