Tub-to-Shower Conversion Prescott, AZ

Stop Stepping Over a Tub You Never Use

For most Prescott homeowners, the bathtub is the least-used fixture in the house — and one of the biggest hazards. Climbing over a high tub wall to shower puts real strain on knees and hips, and for aging adults or anyone with mobility concerns, a traditional tub can become a genuine safety risk. Converting that wasted space into a walk-in shower is one of the smartest upgrades you can make to your home.

At Infinity Kitchen and Bath, a tub-to-shower conversion is a complete, professional installation — not a liner kit slapped over your old surround. We handle everything: demolition of the existing tub and surround, subfloor inspection and repair, proper plumbing rough-in, waterproofing membrane, wall system, floor pan, glass enclosure, and fixtures. You choose the materials, we handle every detail. Most conversions are fully completed in just one to three days with minimal disruption to your household.

Every tub-to-shower project is fully backed by our workmanship warranty, and groutless solid-surface wall systems carry an additional lifetime manufacturer warranty. This service is part of our broader bathroom remodeling services in Prescott, AZ — so if you want to refresh the vanity, flooring, or lighting while we're at it, we can scope that into one seamless project.

5 Reasons Prescott Homeowners Convert Tubs to Showers

Safety & Fall Prevention

Stepping over a tub ledge accounts for a large share of in-home bathroom injuries — especially for older adults. A walk-in shower with a low-threshold or barrier-free entry dramatically reduces fall risk in one of the home's most hazardous rooms.

Space Efficiency

A standard 60-inch tub footprint becomes a much more functional open shower when the walls are moved back and the curb is eliminated. The same square footage feels larger, airier, and more usable every single day.

Accessibility for Aging in Place

A properly designed walk-in shower can be built ADA-compliant from the start, with grab bars, a fold-down bench, and a curbless entry that accommodates a wheelchair or walker. Planning ahead today means you can stay in your Prescott home comfortably for years to come.

Home Resale Value

Walk-in showers consistently rank among the most desirable bathroom features for today's home buyers, particularly in the active-adult communities that make up much of the Prescott real estate market. A quality conversion can return a significant portion of its cost when you sell.

Easier Cleaning

Tub surrounds trap soap scum and mildew in every seam, corner, and grout line. An open shower with solid-surface or large-format tile walls wipes clean in seconds — and with a groutless system, there are no grout lines to scrub at all.

What's Included in a Tub-to-Shower Conversion

Our conversions are turnkey — we manage every phase from demolition through final inspection so you don't have to coordinate multiple contractors or manage a messy project on your own. Here's what every Infinity Kitchen and Bath tub-to-shower conversion includes.

  • Frameless glass enclosure, hinged door, or open walk-in
  • Shower valve, trim kit, and shower head installation
  • Precision caulk and grout sealing for long-term protection
Our Process

How a Tub-to-Shower Conversion Works

Our streamlined five-step process keeps your project on schedule, on budget, and stress-free from start to finish.

01

Free Consultation & Measurements

We visit your Prescott home at no charge, assess your existing tub space, take precise measurements, and walk you through every material and design option. You'll leave the consultation with a clear written estimate and a realistic timeline — no surprises.

02

Plumbing & Demo Plan

Before a single tool hits your bathroom, we finalize the plumbing layout, confirm the drain location, and verify the structural condition of the wall framing. Any permit requirements are handled on your behalf before work begins.

03

Tub Removal, Subfloor & Waterproofing

We carefully demolish and remove the tub, surround, and any damaged backer material. The subfloor is inspected and corrected for level and structural integrity, then a full waterproofing membrane is applied to walls and floor before anything else goes in.

04

Wall System, Floor Pan & Glass

Your chosen wall panels or tile are installed over the waterproofed substrate. The shower floor pan or custom-pitched tile floor is set with proper slope to the drain. Once walls and floor are set and cured, the glass enclosure or frameless door is measured and installed.

05

Fixtures, Grout & Final Inspection

The shower valve, trim, and shower head are installed and pressure-tested. Every grout joint and seam is sealed. We walk through the finished shower with you, confirm everything meets your expectations, and hand over care and maintenance instructions before we leave.

Tub-to-Shower Conversion FAQ

How long does a tub-to-shower conversion take in Prescott?
Most tub-to-shower conversions are completed in one to three business days. Simple conversions using a prefab pan and solid-surface wall panels can often be done in a single day. More complex projects — such as those requiring subfloor repairs, custom tile work, or relocated plumbing — may run two to three days. We give you an accurate timeline at the free consultation so you can plan accordingly.
Will I need to re-tile the entire bathroom?
No — the conversion work is contained to the shower footprint. We remove the tub, surround, and any damaged backer board, then install the new wall and floor system within that same space. If your existing floor tile runs under the tub area, we can patch and blend the tile or recommend a flooring update if you'd like a fully cohesive look. The choice is always yours.
Can I keep my existing plumbing valve?
It depends on its condition and location. If the existing valve is in good shape and positioned correctly for a shower-only use, we can often reuse it with a new shower-specific trim kit. If it's aging, corroded, or a tub/shower combo valve that's no longer appropriate, we'll recommend a replacement. We always inspect the rough-in before giving you a final answer on this.
Is a tub-to-shower conversion worth it for resale value?
For most Prescott-area homes, yes — particularly if you already have a tub elsewhere in the house (a requirement many buyers look for). Walk-in showers are consistently ranked as a top desired bathroom feature, and a professionally finished conversion adds perceived value that often exceeds the cost of the project. As part of our complete bathroom remodeling capability, we can also advise on which additional upgrades will maximize your return before you list.
Do you offer groutless wall options for conversions?
Yes — groutless solid-surface wall panels are one of our most popular upgrade options for tub-to-shower conversions. They install faster than tile, require zero grout maintenance, and carry a lifetime warranty. We stock a wide range of colors and patterns through our groutless shower systems line, and we'll bring samples to your free consultation so you can see and feel the options before committing.
