    How the estimate works

    The estimator starts from your project scope — liner/kit, rip-and-replace, full custom, or a one-day system — then adds the shower features you pick, tub removal if needed, and permits, and applies a bathroom-size and regional-labor multiplier from your ZIP. The result is a range, because every bathroom is different. See the full line-item breakdown and our review methodology.

    Conversion vs. a new walk-in tub

    The result panel compares your conversion against a typical new walk-in tub. If soaking matters more than a simple step-in shower, price the tub too with the walk-in tub cost calculator.

    The estimate is a starting point. A binding price needs an in-home measurement. Compare a couple of licensed pros so you can see the line items side by side.

    Common questions

    How accurate is the conversion cost estimator?
    It gives a realistic range from your scope, features, tub removal, bathroom size, and regional labor rates. It is an estimate, not a quote — a firm price comes only after an in-home measurement.
    Is a conversion cheaper than a walk-in tub?
    Often, yes — a liner or standard conversion usually costs less than a new walk-in tub. A full custom tile shower can cost as much. The estimator shows a side-by-side comparison so you can see both.
    Does the estimate include tub removal?
    It can — toggle "Remove the old tub?" to add removal and haul-away to the range.

    Prices are estimates. Every bathroom is different, so a firm price comes only after an in-home measurement.
