Livonia Tub to Shower Conversions, Cutouts & Walk-In Tubs
Livonia's ranch homes were built for young families in the 1950s and 60s. A lot of those original owners — or their kids — are still there, and the standard 60-inch alcove tub has become the one thing standing between them and staying put.

The Livonia Bathroom Problem
Livonia is one of the largest ranch-home communities in Michigan, and those single-level floor plans are ideal candidates for conversion — the main bath is usually the only full bath, so making it accessible changes whether the whole house still works.
Housing here is largely post-war and 1960s brick ranches, plus 1970s colonials, 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 Livonia 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.

Wayne County Access and Parking
Practical detail people don't think about until the day: we need to get a tub out and a shower base in. In tighter Livonia streets and older homes with narrow doorways and turns at the top of the stairs, that's a real consideration.
We cut cast iron down in place rather than carrying it out whole, which solves most of it. But it's worth mentioning your layout when you call — a second-floor bathroom at the end of a tight hallway is a different quote than a main-floor one.
How a Livonia Install Works
We measure
Alcove width, doorway clearance, tub material. Ten minutes, and it's what makes the quote accurate.
You pick the finish
Wall panel or tile, bench or no bench, glass or curtain. Fixed price either way.
Install day
Floors covered before anything moves. Tub out, base in, walls up, fixtures on.
Walkthrough
We run the water with you, show you everything, and answer questions before we leave.
Get a Fixed Quote for Your Livonia Bathroom
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.

Livonia — Common Questions
What's the difference between a cutout and a full conversion?
A cutout ($1,550) keeps your existing tub and cuts a low step-through opening in the side of it, finished with a molded insert. A full conversion ($6,995) removes the tub entirely and replaces it with a walk-in shower. The cutout is faster and much cheaper; the conversion gives you a proper shower and more usable floor space. We'll tell you which one your situation actually calls for.
How long will the job take in my Livonia home?
Most conversions and cutouts in Livonia are a single day. We arrive in the morning, the old tub comes out, the new base and walls go in, and we clean up and leave that evening. Walk-in tub installs occasionally run into a second day when electrical work is needed for jets or a heated seat — and we tell you that when we quote, not on the day.
Do you actually work in Livonia, or just advertise there?
We work in Livonia regularly — it's part of our core Wayne County service area and has been for 18 years. Same pricing as everywhere else, no travel surcharge. We also cover Redford, Westland, Farmington Hills, Northville.
How much does a tub to shower conversion cost in Livonia?
Conversions in Livonia start at $6,995 installed. Bathtub cutouts start at $1,550 and walk-in bathtubs at $12,995. Post-war and 1960s brick ranches, plus 1970s colonials — and that's the main thing that moves the final number, because older tubs take longer to remove. You get a fixed price in writing before any work starts.
Is financing available for Livonia homeowners?
Yes, with approved credit. It's how most of our walk-in tub customers pay, and it turns a five-figure project into a monthly payment. Ask when you call and we'll walk you through it. See our financing page for the details.
Can you handle a cast iron tub in Livonia?
Yes, and around here it's routine. We cut cast iron down in place rather than trying to carry it out whole — that's the part that damages doorframes, stair treads and floors when it's done by someone who hasn't done it before.
