Key takeaways

  • BathPeak walk-in shower conversions commonly fall within a general $8,991–$14,991 range.
  • A walk-in shower built as part of a larger remodel is priced within the $18,991–$39,991 full-remodel range.
  • Entry height, size, tile and glass are the main price drivers.

The short answer

When a walk-in shower replaces an existing tub or shower in the same footprint, BathPeak walk-in shower conversions commonly fall within a general investment range of $8,991 to $14,991. When it is part of a bigger project — a new layout, a larger shower, new floors and vanity — it falls within BathPeak's general $18,991–$39,991 full-remodel range.

What affects the price

  • Entry. A low-threshold base is simpler than a curbless entry, which may require changes to the floor structure.
  • Size. Enlarging the shower beyond the old tub or shower footprint adds framing, plumbing and tile.
  • Walls. Tile versus a prefabricated wall system.
  • Glass. Fixed panel, framed door or frameless door.
  • Safety features. Grab bars, a bench, a handheld shower and slip-resistant floor tile.

BathPeak insight

Homeowners often ask for a curbless shower when what they really want is an easy step-in. A low-threshold shower solves that for many households with less floor work. If a wheelchair or walker is part of the picture now or likely later, curbless is worth pricing — we'll show you both.
