Convert Your Old Bathtub Into a Beautiful New Shower
That unused tub is taking up half your bathroom. Every morning you step over a high wall that feels more like an obstacle course than a practical design choice. Maybe it's time to admit the truth: You haven't taken a bath in years, but you're still living with a space built around one.
Coastal Bath Company transforms unused tubs into functional walk-in showers for Philadelphia homeowners ready to reclaim their bathroom space. Whether you need safer daily access or want a modern shower that actually matches how your household lives, our in-house team handles the complete conversion from consultation through installation.
Why Homeowners Replace Their Tubs
Tub conversions happen for practical reasons, and most fall into a few common categories. Some homeowners find stepping over the tub wall difficult, and a low-threshold shower entry improves daily safety and independence. Others have a tub that simply collects dust and want to reclaim valuable square footage.
Many Philadelphia area homeowners in their 30s, 40s, and 50s want to refresh an outdated bathroom without the disruption and expense of a full renovation. A tub-to-shower conversion delivers maximum impact with minimal chaos.
Common motivations for conversions include:
Difficulty stepping over the tub wall safely
A tub no longer used by household members
Outdated finishes that make the bathroom feel stuck in the past
Desire for a larger, more open shower footprint
Accessibility needs for aging parents or family members
Our bath safety accessories can complement your new shower setup depending on your specific needs and space requirements.
Our Tub-to-Shower Conversion Process
A tub-to-shower conversion starts with the complete removal of your existing tub, fixtures, and surround, down to the substrate. Our team then builds a new shower system in that exact footprint, including wall panels, shower base, fixtures, and your choice of door or enclosure configuration. The result is a clean, fully functional walk-in shower where an unused tub once sat.
Your new shower will have a lower-threshold entry, updated wall surfaces with no grout lines to scrub, and modern fixture placement. Every installation is completed by our in-house, factory-certified installers.
Customization Options for Your New Shower
A tub-to-shower conversion lets you build your new shower around your preferences rather than inheriting the one that came with your house. You can pick from:
Wall System Styles: Color, texture, and panel configurations to match or refresh your space
Shower Bases: Low-threshold and barrier-free options based on your needs
Fixture Packages: Moen faucets and shower fixtures
Safety Accessories: Grab bars, built-in seating, and handheld showerheads for added function
Door and Enclosure Options: Frameless, semi-frameless, and sliding configurations

Built to Last: Product Quality and Warranty Coverage
When it comes to materials for your new shower, acrylic is the clear winner. Here's why we install acrylic systems in every conversion: They're built to handle real life.
Acrylic is non-porous, which means it doesn't absorb water or harbor mold and mildew the way tile and grout do. You know those grout lines that stay stained no matter how much you scrub? Acrylic eliminates that problem entirely. The smooth surface cleans easily with regular household cleaners and looks the same years later.
The antimicrobial properties built into the material also work against mold and bacterial growth on the surface, so you spend less time scrubbing and more time enjoying your shower. Plus, acrylic handles daily use without cracking, dulling, or showing wear like other materials might.
We back every conversion with a lifetime warranty that reflects our confidence in both the acrylic materials and our installation quality. Because our in-house installers complete the work directly, there's clear accountability from initial consultation through installation and beyond.
Financing Your Philadelphia Tub-to-Shower Conversion
Financing is available for qualified customers through our lending partners, including GreenSky, Moment, and Foundation Finance. You can discuss options during your consultation to find a payment plan that works with your budget.
Areas We Serve
Coastal Baths serves homeowners across the Mid-Atlantic, including Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania. You can find a full breakdown of all the areas we serve on our service areas page.
Common Questions About Tub-to-Shower Conversions
If your home has multiple bathrooms and another tub remains available, removing a tub in the primary bath typically has minimal impact on buyer perception. If this is your only bathtub, that's worth discussing during your consultation.
That's what the in-home consultation covers. We’ll measure the footprint left by a tub removal and match options to what the space supports. Before your home visit, you can view wall finishes and fixture options in person at our Delmar or New Castle showroom.
We use in-house, factory-certified installers for every conversion, so one team handles removal through final installation. General contractors coordinate multiple trades with less direct accountability. You can reach a live person by phone, and we're locally owned with active ownership involvement.

5-Star Craftsmanship
I had my bathroom done last winter. Excellent experience from beginning with the first representative and continues now. Great workmanship , friendly employees and knowledgeable. Willing to explain everything they were doing and why. I would definitely recommend Coastal Bath to anyone. In fact I have done that several times.
Fantastic experience with Coastal Bath. Chris and Will were wonderful to work with. Arrived on time and worked efficiently to get our installation done in less than a day. Very friendly and knowledgeable crew. We are thrilled with our result!
Our bathroom was remodeled yesterday by Chris and Will two amazing young men who did such a fabulous job. They pulled out the old bathtub installed a brand, new, beautiful walk-in shower. They were extremely professional and very friendly and extremely neat. When they were finally done, and I walked to the bathroom, I literally started to well up in my eyes because it was beautiful! Glad we found this company all done in one day!! Thank you for the great job!
From the salesperson to the installers to the office support this company was a pleasure to work with. The salesperson listened and helped us figure out what we wanted. The installers: Josh, Robert, and Chad were on time, explained what they were going to do and didn’t mind that I kept sticking my head in to see what they were doing. The office always had time to answer any questions I had when I called. I would recommend giving Coastal Bath a call for your needs.
I had my tub/shower replaced with a walk in shower. From beginning to end the experience was wonderful. Steve, my salesperson, worked with me to make sure I was happy. Kenny and Gene arrived on time, were professional and worked together to complete the job. I was most impressed that Nate stopped by throughout installation to check on progress. Thank you Coastal Bath!
We recently had a small corner shower replaced. The area that could be used for a new shower was not large enough for showers that are available in any of the big box or retail stores. They came out and measured the area and installed a perfect fitting shower stall that is fantastic in looks and functionality.
Frank and his team are outstanding professionals, highly experienced and deeply knowledgeable. I recommend them highly!
Had new shower put in during May 2025. I needed two things tweaked which Coastal did asap. I waited for a couple of months to do review to be sure everything goes well after the initial installation. My new shower is EXACTLY what I wanted.
Coastal bath installed three showers in my new home build. The installers were on time and finished the three installs ahead of schedule. The installers were professional and were experts installing the showers. I love the wave wall panel and the classic concrete side panels. The showers are beautiful.
