Older waterfront homes plus 1990s+ subdivisions. New Baltimore's Anchor Bay waterfront homes include older cottages with undersized bathrooms alongside newer builds with full master suites.
That single fact drives most of what a job here costs. The age of the house determines whether the tub is cast iron or fiberglass, whether there's plaster or drywall behind the tile, and whether the bathroom is upstairs at the top of a narrow staircase. Knowing that before we arrive is why we can quote New Baltimore accurately over the phone instead of sending someone out to look.

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.
New Baltimore has a high share of homeowners who bought their house new and never left. We hear the same sentence constantly: nobody wants to move over a bathroom.
They shouldn't have to. A conversion or a walk-in tub costs a fraction of moving, and it addresses the actual problem — which is almost never the house, and almost always the fifteen inches of tub wall between you and getting clean.
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.

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.
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.
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.
