Clawson houses are modest and well-kept, and the bathroom is usually the last original room. Converting the tub is the highest-impact change available.
ZIP codes we cover in Clawson: 48017
Clawson's compact homes have small baths where a walk-in shower meaningfully increases usable floor space compared to the original tub footprint.
Housing here is largely 1940s-50s bungalows and small ranches, and that shapes everything about a conversion: how the tub comes out, what's behind the wall, and how long we're in your house. We've done enough Clawson bathrooms to know what we're walking into, which is why we quote a fixed price instead of an hourly rate that grows once the wall is open.
From $6,995
installed · financing available
Remove the old bathtub entirely and replace it with a low-threshold walk-in shower — new base, new waterproof walls, new fixtures.
Keep your existing tub. We cut a low step-through opening in the wall of it and finish the edges with a molded insert.
A full Ella's Bubbles walk-in bathtub with a sealing door, molded seat, grab bars and optional hydrotherapy jets.
Starting prices, installed. Your fixed quote depends on alcove size, existing tub material and the finishes you choose. Financing available with approved credit.
Homeowners in Clawson generally aren't looking for the cheapest possible fix, and we don't push one. The wall finish, the glass, whether there's a bench and a recessed niche — those choices are the difference between a bathroom that looks renovated and one that looks repaired.
We'll show you the range and tell you honestly where spending more actually shows and where it doesn't.
We measure
Alcove width, doorway clearance, tub material. Ten minutes, and it's what makes the quote accurate.
Wall panel or tile, bench or no bench, glass or curtain. Fixed price either way.
Floors covered before anything moves. Tub out, base in, walls up, fixtures on.
We run the water with you, show you everything, and answer questions before we leave.
If you're comparing quotes, ask the other companies two things: is the price fixed, and how many days will you be without a bathroom? Those two answers separate a conversion specialist from a general remodeler who also does bathrooms.

No. Every wall finish we install — printed acrylic, CNC-engraved acrylic, solid acrylic or tongue-and-groove vinyl tile — is grout-free, so there's nothing to scrub and nowhere for mildew to grow.
Small bathrooms are common in older Metro Detroit housing stock, and we carry custom-size shower bases for alcoves that aren't a standard 60 inches. Send a photo and the alcove width and we'll tell you what fits.
Call (586) 791-4800 and describe your Clawson bathroom — most questions like this are easiest to answer with a quick phone call, and we'll give you a straight answer along with a fixed price.
A cutout (from $1,550) leaves your existing tub in place and cuts a low step-through opening into its wall — done in a few hours. A full conversion (from $6,995) removes the tub entirely and replaces it with a walk-in shower, base and waterproof walls — done in about a day. Cutouts are the lower-cost fix; conversions are the more complete, longer-term one.
Permit requirements vary by municipality. Where Clawson requires a permit for this type of work, we handle pulling it as part of the job — it's included in your fixed price, not an add-on.
Yes — cast iron is common in older Metro Detroit homes and we cut it down in place rather than trying to carry it out whole. It takes longer than fiberglass or steel, and we account for that in the quote.
