Converting a tub to a shower in Arkansas typically costs $10,000 to $18,000 installed. A standard acrylic shower in the old tub space sits near the low end, and glass doors, built in seating and a larger footprint move it up. The standard low threshold is easy to step over. Most conversions take one to two days, and the acrylic carries a Bath Planet limited lifetime warranty, with installation backed by Bath Planet of Arkansas.

We are a local bath and shower installer and we stand behind every job. You are not handed off to a subcontractor. Every job follows the same disciplined process:
A conversion makes sense when nobody in the house takes baths and the tub wall has become the hardest part of getting clean. The tub comes out, a shower base goes into the same space, and grout free panels go up around it. You keep the room's layout and lose the climb. In Arkansas, a typical conversion takes one to two days from tear out to fixtures.
A tub to shower conversion in Arkansas typically costs $10,000 to $18,000 installed. A standard acrylic shower in the old tub space sits near the low end, and a seat, grab bars, glass doors and shelving move it up. A low step walk in shower in the old tub space typically runs $15,000 to $24,000.
Most conversions take one to two days when the shower goes into the old tub space. The first day covers removing the tub and setting the base and walls, and fixtures, doors and accessories finish the job. Moving the drain or valve adds time, and that is written into the price before the install is scheduled.
Yes. The standard low threshold is easy to step over, so there is no tub wall to climb over, and a seat, grab bars and a handheld head can be added. If someone in the home uses a walker or wheelchair, talk with a designer about your needs at the free in home consultation. A conversion typically costs $10,000 to $18,000 installed, and a low step walk in shower in the old tub space typically runs $15,000 to $24,000.
If you have young children or plan to sell to families, keeping one tub somewhere in the home is a sensible hedge. Converting a second tub, or the tub in a primary bath, is common and rarely a problem for buyers. A typical conversion costs $10,000 to $18,000 installed and takes one to two days.
Usually not. Most conversions reuse the existing drain location and supply lines, with a new shower valve and fixtures. Older pipes or a drain in the wrong spot can add labor, which moves a job toward the top of the typical $10,000 to $18,000 range. The consultant checks the plumbing during the free visit.
Converted showers get custom made acrylic wall panels with no grout lines. The panels carry Microban antimicrobial protection and come in solid colors, stone looks and grout line patterns. A tub to shower conversion typically costs $10,000 to $18,000 installed, and patterned panels add a little to the total.
Yes. Conversions from Bath Planet of Arkansas carry the Bath Planet limited lifetime warranty on the acrylic base and wall panels, and Bath Planet of Arkansas backs the installation, subject to the written terms you receive with your price. Typical installed prices run $10,000 to $18,000, and most jobs finish in one to two days.
Most tub to shower conversions finish in as little as one day when the new shower fits the existing tub space. In that window the install team takes out the old unit, sets the new system and hauls the debris away. Several things can add days: moving the drain or valve, repairing rot or water damage found behind the old walls, and waiting on custom glass doors that must be measured first. Scope also moves the price. According to Bath Planet of Arkansas' published price table, a tub to shower conversion typically runs $10,000 to $18,000 installed, and a low step walk in shower in the old tub space $15,000 to $24,000, with a standard low threshold that is easy to step over. A free in home design consultation settles the layout and measurements before any work starts, so the schedule is set in advance.
Yes, replacing only the tub or shower, the walls around it and the fixtures typically costs $10,000 to $18,000 for a tub to shower conversion or bathtub replacement, according to Bath Planet of Arkansas' published price table, which is less than a full renovation. A full renovation that moves plumbing, changes the layout, or adds new flooring, a vanity and wall finishes takes longer and costs more in labor and materials, and Bath Planet of Arkansas does not do that work. A tub or shower replacement swaps the old unit and surrounding walls for an acrylic system, and most jobs finish in as little as one day. Bathroom size, material choices and hidden water damage found once the old walls come out also change the final number. If the tub or shower is what has worn out, the smaller scope usually covers it for less.
According to Bath Planet of Arkansas' published price table, a one day tub to shower conversion or bathtub replacement typically costs $10,000 to $18,000 installed, and that price covers the tub or shower, the walls around it, and new fixtures. The install team removes the old unit, sets a custom made acrylic system, and hauls the debris away, and most jobs finish in as little as one day. The price does not cover a full gut remodel of the room, which Bath Planet of Arkansas does not do. Moving plumbing or repairing water damaged framing found behind the old walls pushes a project toward the top of the range, and a walk in tub runs $14,000 to $20,000. Wall style, system size, fixture finishes and accessibility features such as grab bars or a lower entry also change the number. A free in home design consultation confirms the price for the bathroom, and the acrylic carries a Bath Planet limited lifetime warranty, with installation backed by Bath Planet of Arkansas.
A new tub or shower follows five steps from first call to finish, and the installation itself takes as little as one day. First, you book a free in home design consultation, where the space is measured and you discuss the tub or shower type and wall style. Second, you choose the acrylic system, fixtures and finishes and receive a written price. According to Bath Planet of Arkansas' published price table, a tub to shower conversion typically costs $10,000 to $18,000, a walk in shower $10,000 to $18,000 and a walk in tub $14,000 to $20,000. Third, the custom made system is built and an install date is set. Fourth, the install team removes the old unit, sets the new system and hauls the debris away. Fifth, you walk through the finished bath. Moving plumbing or adding accessibility features adds time and moves the price up the range.
Bath Planet of Arkansas replaces the tub or shower and the walls around it with a custom made acrylic system, and most jobs finish in as little as one day. The install team takes out the old unit, sets the new system and hauls the debris away. It does not do full bathroom remodels, so the work stays focused on the tub or shower area. According to its published price table, a tub to shower conversion or bathtub replacement typically runs $10,000 to $18,000 installed, a walk in shower $10,000 to $18,000, and a walk in tub $14,000 to $20,000. What moves a project within those ranges is size, options such as glass, seats and grab bars, and what the measurements find behind the old walls. The work starts with a free in home design consultation and installs Bath Planet acrylic, which carries a limited lifetime warranty, with installation backed by Bath Planet of Arkansas.
