Early-1900s homes plus post-war ranches. Mount Clemens' historic core has century-old homes with original cast iron and, in some cases, galvanized supply lines that are worth updating while the wall is open.
Every neighborhood in Metro Detroit has its own version of this problem, and Mount Clemens is specific enough that a contractor who mostly works elsewhere will misprice it. We've been in these bathrooms for 18 years.

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.
If you're in a condo or townhome near Mount Clemens, the association likely has rules about what can be changed and shared plumbing walls that limit what's practical.
Staying inside the existing tub footprint avoids nearly all of that — we're not moving drains or opening shared walls. If your association wants documentation before approving work, tell us and we'll provide it.
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.

No. Quotes are free, whether by phone, by emailing a photo to bob@detroittubs.com, or in person. You get a fixed price in writing before anything is ordered.
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.
No. We work inside the existing tub footprint — the floor, vanity, toilet and rest of the room stay exactly as they are. Only the tub and the wall around it are opened up.
It depends on whether you still want to soak. A walk-in tub (from $12,995) makes sense if the hydro or air massage genuinely helps with arthritis, circulation or chronic pain. A walk-in shower conversion (from $6,995) is the better practical choice if you haven't taken an actual bath in years and just want to get in and out safely.
