Older in-town homes plus rural farmhouses. Richmond's rural farmhouses often run on well and septic and have bathrooms added into former closets or porches, with dimensions that never match a standard kit.
People are often surprised that removal is the hard part rather than the installation. Anyone can glue up a wall panel. Getting a 350-pound cast iron tub out of a bathroom without wrecking the doorframe, the stair treads or the floor is the part that takes 18 years to learn.

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.
Richmond 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.
