Bath Planet of Arkansas installs walk in tubs, walk in showers, tub to shower conversions and new bathtubs in Little Rock, Arkansas. Free in home consultation, most installs in as little as one day.
Our Little Rock showroom is at Park Plaza on West Markham Street, a few minutes from most of the city, so it is easy to see the bases, wall patterns and doors before a designer comes out. The questions we hear in Little Rock split by neighborhood. Owners of older homes near downtown want to know whether a new shower will fit an upstairs bath without tearing up the floors, and owners of newer houses out west usually want a worn fiberglass tub swapped for a walk in shower with glass doors. Either way the consultation is free, the measurements are taken in the home, and the price is written down before anything is ordered.
All seven Bath Planet services are offered in Little Rock. Each link opens the Little Rock page for that service with its typical installed range and what moves it.

Job notes from completed Little Rock installs, as recorded on the job card:
“Looks great, and especially enjoy the shower head. Added about 8 inches of width to the shower. Job completed in one day.”
“The people were very nice. I had a walk in shower installed. I love it.”
“The shower is amazing! It’s refreshing and safer than stepping over a tub. I only wish I had had a door added.”
The Little Rock showroom at 6000 W Markham St, Little Rock, AR 72205 is about 3 miles from Little Rock, roughly 8 minutes. 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.
Usually, yes. About 20.7 percent of Little Rock homes were built before 1960 according to Census American Community Survey estimates, and many have small baths with cast iron tubs or bases. The old unit comes out, the walls and floor underneath are checked, and a custom measured acrylic base and wall system goes in over the same footprint, which avoids retiling the room. A cast iron tear out takes extra care because of the weight, and we plan for it during the measuring visit.
Most want the builder grade tub and shower gone. Census estimates show 21.8 percent of Little Rock homes were built in 2000 or later, and those baths tend to have a fiberglass tub combination that is dull and hard to clean after 20 years. The common upgrade is a walk in shower with a low base, glass doors and grout free walls, or a new tub with a matching surround if the household still wants a bathtub for children or resale.
Bath Planet of Arkansas serves Little Rock and 22 other Arkansas towns, including North Little Rock, Sherwood, Maumelle, Jacksonville, Benton, Bryant and Conway, with most installs finished in as little as one day after a free in home design consultation. Census American Community Survey 2019 to 2023 estimates put the median Little Rock home was built in 1978 and count 20.7 percent of homes built before 1960. Older homes often need more prep behind the walls, which can stretch a job past one day. Scope sets the timeline and price: walk in tubs, walk in showers, tub to shower conversions, bathtub replacement, bath liners and wall surrounds, and accessible baths each involve different demolition and fitting. Layout changes such as moving a drain, the condition of the plumbing and subfloor, and the wall material you choose also change the number. Bath Planet acrylic carries a limited lifetime warranty, and Bath Planet of Arkansas backs the installation.
Free in home design consultation, a written price, and an install that usually takes one day. Showrooms in Hot Springs and Little Rock.
