Frequently Asked Questions
Does removing a bathtub hurt resale value?
It depends. A home should have at least one bathtub (especially with multiple bathrooms). Converting a second or third bathroom's tub to a walk-in shower actually increases value. A master bath walk-in shower is now preferred by most buyers over a tub.
How long does walk-in shower installation take?
Prefab/acrylic: 1-3 days. Custom tile: 5-10 days (including waterproofing cure time and grout drying). Allow extra time if plumbing needs to be moved.
Why does walk-in shower installation cost different in Dallas than other cities?
Dallas's costs reflect local labor rates driven by the finance-tech-telecom economy, humid-subtropical climate conditions that affect materials and scheduling, and moderate permitting requirements. The competitive labor market also influences competitive pricing.
