Is your old bathtub collecting dust more than it’s collecting splashes? If so, you’re not alone. More homeowners are choosing to convert unused tubs into sleek, solid surface showers — and for good reason.

✅ Why Convert a Tub to a Shower?

  • Accessibility: Showers are easier to step into, especially for seniors or those with mobility concerns.

  • Space Efficiency: Showers free up space in smaller bathrooms.

  • Modern Look: Tubs can date a bathroom — solid surface showers offer a clean, contemporary upgrade.

  • Low Maintenance: Solid surfaces are non-porous, meaning no grout lines and easier cleaning.

🛠️ What Is a Solid Surface Shower?

Solid surface materials (like cultured marble or engineered stone) are durable, seamless, and custom-fit to your space. They resist mold, mildew, and stains, making them perfect for wet environments.

Benefits include:

  • Seamless panels = no grout to scrub

  • Wide range of colors and finishes

  • Customizable shelves, seats, and niches

  • Long-lasting and easy to repair if scratched

🔁 The Conversion Process (Simplified)

  1. Consultation & Measurements: Assess space, plumbing, and design preferences.

  2. Demo Day: Remove the old tub and prep the area.

  3. Plumbing Adjustments: Move or adjust drains and fixtures as needed.

  4. Install Shower Base & Walls: Solid surface panels are custom-fitted and installed with watertight adhesive and sealants.

  5. Finishing Touches: Add glass doors, accessories, and caulking.

💡 Pro Tips

  • Always hire experienced pros — especially for plumbing and waterproofing.

  • Consider adding built-in seating or grab bars for extra safety.

  • Ask about lifetime warranties on solid surface materials.

🧼 Easy to Clean. Easy to Love.

A tub-to-shower conversion with solid surface panels isn’t just about looks — it’s about creating a more functional, low-maintenance space you’ll enjoy daily.
