Replacing an Underused Tub With a Shower Built for Daily Life

The goal of this Ridgemont bathroom project was focused: remove the existing bathtub and use the same footprint for a comfortable walk-in shower.

A targeted bathtub-to-shower conversion can change how a bathroom works without requiring a complete floor-to-ceiling remodel. For this Morrisville home, the project centered on careful demolition, preparing the wet area, coordinating the shower installation, and completing the surrounding finish work.

The result is a bathroom that better fits the homeowner's routine while keeping the project centered on the part of the space they wanted to improve most.

01Jobsite SetupBathroom Protection & Preparation

Before demolition, we protected the bathroom floor, hallway, and access path through the Ridgemont home. Careful jobsite setup helps control dust and keeps the surrounding living areas cleaner during a bathroom remodel.

02DemolitionBathtub & Surround Removal

We removed the existing bathtub and wall surround to open the full shower area. Controlled tub removal gave our team access to the plumbing, wall framing, and wet-area surfaces without changing the bathroom’s existing footprint.

With the old tub out, we inspected the exposed framing, drain location, plumbing connections, and wall conditions. This preparation stage determines what must be corrected before a reliable walk-in shower system can be installed.
