Wixom's newer housing means fast, clean removals — the kind of job that genuinely finishes in a day.
ZIP codes we cover in Wixom: 48393
Wixom's newer condos and subdivision homes have builder-grade acrylic units that come out quickly, keeping most conversions here to one day and to the lower end of the price range.
The housing stock: 1980s-2000s subdivisions and condos. That matters because the tub in a 1930s home and the tub in a 1990s home are different objects requiring different tools. One gets cut into pieces where it sits. The other lifts out in one go. Same finished result, very different day.

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.
A large share of Wixom homes have both a tub and a separate shower in the master bathroom. If you're in one of those, you already know the tub hasn't been filled in years — it's holding towels, or nothing at all.
That's the easiest conversion we do and the highest-value one. The footprint, the drain and the water supply are already there. Converting it gives you one large, genuinely usable shower instead of two compromised fixtures.
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.
Call (586) 791-4800 and describe the bathroom — how old the house is, whether the tub thuds like cast iron when you tap it, and roughly how wide the alcove is. That's normally enough for a real number in about five minutes.

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. 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.
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.
