Bath Planet of Arkansas installs walk in tubs, walk in showers, tub to shower conversions and new bathtubs in El Dorado, Arkansas. Free in home consultation, most installs in as little as one day.
El Dorado is the Union County seat, an oil boom city where most houses predate 1980 and many still have their original walls and tub. Bath Planet of Arkansas replaced an El Dorado shower in August 2025 with a fold down seat and grab bar, and finished a similar job in nearby Camden. Consultations in Union County are scheduled ahead and held at your home, since the Little Rock showroom is about two and a half hours north. Long time owners here usually want a safer shower rather than a full remodel.

Job notes from completed El Dorado installs, as recorded on the job card:
The Little Rock showroom at 6000 W Markham St, Little Rock, AR 72205 is about 122 miles from El Dorado, roughly 148 minutes, so consultations here are booked ahead. Routing figures come from OSRM on OpenStreetMap road data and assume normal traffic. The consultation itself happens in your home, so the showroom is optional: it is where you can see the wall patterns, bases and doors in person.
Mostly the tub that comes out. Census estimates show 73 percent of El Dorado homes were built before 1980, so many bathrooms still have a cast iron or steel tub set in mortar and grout. Taking that out is heavier work, and the installer checks the subfloor and supply lines before ordering the new base and walls. Once that is understood, a replacement in the same footprint is usually installed in one day.
Possibly, through the VA Home Improvements and Structural Alterations benefit, known as HISA, which covers medically necessary bathroom changes. It is relevant here because 9.2 percent of El Dorado adults are veterans, above the 7.6 percent statewide share in Census estimates. The application needs a prescription from a VA physician and a written itemized cost estimate, so talk with your VA care team first and use the written price from the in home consultation as that estimate. The guide on Medicare and walk in tubs explains the grant rules in more detail.
Free in home design consultation, a written price, and an install that usually takes one day. Showrooms in Hot Springs and Little Rock.
