Tub-to-Shower Conversion for Winston-Salem homes

In many older Winston-Salem houses, the bathroom sits on the second floor over original framing. Converting a tub to a shower there means paying close attention to waterproofing and to the floor under the new shower base.

We remove the tub, look at what's exposed, and confirm the drain and valve location suit the shower you choose. Tile or low-maintenance wall panels, a glass panel or door, and a lower entry are all options to discuss.

BathPeak's general conversion range is $8,991–$14,991. Your written package price with the full scope of work reflects your bathroom, not a city average.

What a tub-to-shower conversion in Winston-Salem includes

Tile or panel walls

Porcelain tile or low-maintenance solid-surface panels, set plumb with sealed grout and proper movement joints.

Valve and fixtures

New pressure-balancing valve, showerhead and handheld, plus a recessed niche and optional bench.

Glass and finish

Semi-frameless or frameless glass templated after tile, silicone detailed, and the room left clean.

Tub removal and haul-off

Cast-iron or steel tub cut out and removed, surround stripped, and the alcove opened to bare framing.

Framing and subfloor check

Any rot at the old tub apron repaired, studs corrected, and blocking added for bars and glass.

Drain conversion

The 1.5-inch tub drain converted to a 2-inch shower drain, correctly trapped and vented to code.

  • Drain resizing and re-venting in older homes
  • Subfloor repair at the old tub apron
  • Bench, niches and grab-bar blocking

How your Winston-Salem project runs

Because the footprint does not change, Forsyth County conversions avoid the layout changes that stretch a full remodel.

  1. Step 1

    In-home consultation

    We measure the alcove, check drain size and framing, price the conversion in writing and review tile options.

  2. Step 2

    Order and schedule

    Approval releases materials; your install date is locked, typically 10 to 21 days out.

  3. Step 3

    Tub out

    Demo, framing and subfloor repair, drain conversion, pan built.

  4. Step 4

    Waterproof and tile

    Membrane, flood test, then wall and floor tile.

  5. Step 5

    Trim out

    Grout, valve trim, niche and bar install, glass template, full cleanup.

  6. Step 6

    Walkthrough

    We run the shower with you, check drainage and slope, and hand over the written warranty.

Converting a tub in a Winston-Salem home

Upstairs bathrooms

Second-floor conversions get extra attention to waterproofing and the floor beneath the shower base.

Older drains

Older drain lines are checked once the tub is out, and any needed changes are approved in writing.

Matching the house

Finishes can be chosen to feel at home in an older house or to modernize it — your choice.
