Bath Planet of Arkansas installs walk in tubs, walk in showers, tub to shower conversions and new bathtubs in North Little Rock, Arkansas. Free in home consultation, most installs in as little as one day.
North Little Rock homeowners usually come to us with one of two jobs: a hall bath tub in a 1960s or 1970s ranch house that has become hard to step into, or a rental property that needs a durable, grout free surround that holds up between tenants. Both are handled the same way. A designer visits, measures the existing space, and writes a price for a custom made acrylic system that goes in over the same footprint, most often in a single day. The Little Rock showroom at Park Plaza is about a 17 minute drive across the river if you want to see wall patterns and bases first.

The Little Rock showroom at 6000 W Markham St, Little Rock, AR 72205 is about 9 miles from North Little Rock, roughly 17 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.
Yes, and they make up a real share of the market here. Census American Community Survey estimates show only 47 percent of occupied homes in North Little Rock are owner occupied, so plenty of owners are landlords updating a bath between tenants. A grout free acrylic wall system suits rentals because it cleans quickly, resists mold, and avoids the regrouting that grout lines need. Scheduling can run through the owner or a property manager, and the install usually takes a day so the unit is not off the market for long.
Most are postwar. The median home was built in 1975 according to Census estimates, and 59.1 percent were built before 1980, so the typical bath is a hall bath with a five foot tub and grouted walls. Replacing that tub with a low step shower, or adding a seat and grab bars, keeps the footprint and the plumbing where they are. Homes in the older Argenta area can need more attention to the walls and drains behind the old unit.
Bath Planet of Arkansas offers a free in home bathroom design consultation in North Little Rock, with most installs finished in as little as one day afterward. During the visit, the key measurements are checked against the International Residential Code, which calls for a shower interior of at least 900 square inches with a 30 inch minimum dimension, and a toilet space at least 30 inches wide, measured 15 inches from the centerline to each side wall or obstruction. Those clearances decide whether a tub to shower conversion, a walk in tub, or a walk in shower fits the existing footprint. The price moves with the scope. A wall surround over the existing tub costs less than a full replacement, moving drains or plumbing adds work, and wall materials, accessibility features such as grab bars and seating, and the condition of the existing plumbing and framing all change the number.
