Advantages of Converting Your West Michigan Home’s Bathtub to a Shower

Do you love your home's bathroom features? Whether you are getting tired of the 20-year-old décor fixtures that were stylish when you bought your home, or that luxurious soaker tub stops being quite so practical as your young family grows, it's common to long for a fresh start. The good news is that a bathtub-to-shower conversion is an easy, affordable way to remodel your Michigan home's bathroom without the hassle of a floor-to-ceiling remodel.

Increases Your Home's Value

Many homeowners find that replacing their rarely used or outdated soaker tub increases their home's value when they are ready to sell their house. Unfortunately, not all remodels give you this kind of advantage. While some remodeling projects might cost more than you can hope to recoup, a tub-to-shower conversion typically repays more than your initial investment.

Reduces Water Bills

A modern bathroom shower can also save you money in other ways. A shower simply uses less water than a standard-size bathtub. Many homeowners report that they see a considerable reduction in their water usage after their tub-to-shower conversion is finished. While the money you are saving in lower water bills is nice, reducing your water consumption is also environmentally friendly.

Provides You with More Bathroom Space

A shower uses less floor space than a traditional bathtub. When you consider that even the smaller tubs average around six ft in length, you can add an incredible amount of space to your bathroom when you eliminate the tub. In addition, clear shower doors can make your bathroom feel even bigger.

Easy to Access

Michigan homeowners with mobility restrictions often report an easier (and safer) experience when they no longer have to step over a bulky bath surround to bathe. In addition, adding accessibility features to even smaller showers is relatively easy, and custom shower designs can make your new shower even easier to access.

A Fresh New Look

Replacing outdated décor elements or bathroom fixtures can give your bathroom the fresh new look it needs to feel like your own personal oasis. A tub-to-shower conversion is also the perfect opportunity to take advantage of all of the improvements in bathroom technology that didn't exist when your home was built.

For example, Bath Planet spa showers are made from a unique acrylic material designed to stand up to all the wear and tear that your family can throw at it. In addition, our custom fabricated materials have been tested repeatedly to ensure that you only receive the highest-quality products possible. This commitment to premium products has earned us the Good Housekeeping Seal of Approval.
