Tub-to-Shower Conversion Services
A tub-to-shower conversion is a smart option when you want to improve your bathroom without completing a full renovation. In many homes, the bathtub takes up space but is rarely used. Replacing it with a walk-in shower can make the room feel more open, easier to clean, and more comfortable for everyday use. At Refined Renos, we help homeowners convert existing bathtubs into showers with proper planning, waterproofing, tile work, plumbing adjustments, and finishing details.
Depending on your bathroom, your project may include a new shower valve, drain work, wall backing, tile installation, niche, bench, glass enclosure, linear drain, or curbless shower entry. We also look at the details behind the walls. If there are signs of mould, water damage, poor drainage, or old workmanship, we explain what needs attention before moving forward. This helps protect your renovation and gives you a shower that is built to last.
Full Tub-to-Shower Conversions
We remove the existing bathtub and replace it with a new shower area, including proper wall preparation, waterproofing, tile, plumbing fixtures, and finishing details.
Walk-In Shower Conversions
We convert traditional bathtubs into walk-in showers that make your bathroom feel more open and practical, especially if your current tub is difficult to use or maintain.
Low-Threshold Shower Conversions
We install low-threshold showers that are easier to step into than a standard tub, improving comfort, convenience, and overall bathroom safety.
Accessible Shower Conversions
We design and build accessible shower conversions that can include curbless entry, grab bar planning, benches, slip-resistant tile, wider clearances, and other aging-in-place features.
Custom Glass Shower Conversions
We install custom glass enclosures that give your new shower a clean, finished look while helping your bathroom feel brighter, larger, and more open.

Tub-to-Shower Conversion Reviews
We recently had our bathroom renovated by Refined Renos, and we’re so happy with how it turned out. Slava and his team were great to work with. They showed up on time every day, were respectful of our home, and the quality of the work was amazing. Everything was done exactly as promised, and the finished bathroom looks even better than we expected. We would definitely recommend Refined Renos to anyone thinking about a renovation. Thanks again, Slava and the team😃
I recently had a full shower installed by Refined Renos, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. Slava did an outstanding job—his workmanship is excellent, and the transformation is incredible. He turned half of my laundry room into a beautiful, fully functional shower, and the quality shows in every detail.<br><br>Slava was professional, friendly, and always on time. The whole process was smooth, and he made everything easy from start to finish. I would 100% recommend Slava and Refined Renos to anyone looking for top-notch renovation work.
Slava and his team at Refined Reno’s were professional, kind and courteous throughout our renovation. They kept us up to date on the progress and timeline and stayed on budget. Couldn’t be happier with the results.
We really enjoyed working with the Refined Reno’s team. They were able to take our vision and make it come to reality within a reasonable budget. The quality of work is excellent. If there were any issues, the team was very quick to resolve without question. I would happily hire them again for future projects.
Refined Renos is the best option for bathroom remodels (and I’m sure other rooms too!). Like other reviews below, their communication is superb..very responsive and they provide solutions as construction issues came up (as is normal with all renovation projects). They stayed within our timeline and budget (even with some small upgrades they were able to throw in for us and still stayed within our budget). They protected our home from the demo and mess, and were very tidy and considerate. Their work is clean and built solid..no cutting corners, and they explain their work and even offer suggestions for the better.<br>We look forward to the next project with Refined Renos, and know who to call when the house needs some love and sprucing up! Thanks to the crew for all that you did, and especially Slava for the guidance throughout.

How Much Does a Tub-to-Shower Conversion Cost?
