Tub Types
Bath Fitter carries a range of custom bath and shower solutions with expertise in retrofitting new fixtures without the need to remove the old ones. This saves on mess, cost, and time. Plus, you can add any safety features you want, including grab bars or shower seats. Bath Fitter will update your bathtub in as little as a day, with no mess or demolition. If you are looking to fully remodel your bathroom and install a specialty or non-standard sized walk-in tub, this may not be the right choice for you.
Pricing
Bath Fitter offers price estimates following a simple virtual consultation. During the appointment, a representative will discuss what you are looking for and provide you with a range of product choices. Since everything is custom-made, standard out-of-the-box tubs may be cheaper but will require more expensive installation and remodeling.
Bath Fitter acrylic tub liners start at $700, but for a more complex project, such as fitting a walk-in bathtub and tiling the bathroom, you may be paying $7,000 or more. Bath Fitter will give a good idea of what the cost will be during your free consultation.
Testimonials
“We had a need for a bathroom upgrade, less vanity/sink. I had Bath Fitter quote on the project and they won the quote based a good looking product and one-day turnaround. Albert was our installer and he had a challenge with our slanted ceiling and rounded tub. The installation was amazing in the end, the wife loves it and that is what it was all about. Thanks, Albert for the professional install.” -Dan of Calgary, AB
“Bath Fitter did the work at a friend's house and I was visiting. They were very clean and liked the way the work was done so I called them. I had got an estimate and they honored it when I was ready. They didn't have to do that and could’ve given me a new price. I was very satisfied with the installer's work. He was quick and very professional. Moreover, with me being an older person, he was very considerate. He also cleaned up after himself.” -Marian of Philadelphia, PA
“With my bathroom, going with Bath Fitter was the best route to go and I purchased the tub and surround. The sales representative was very helpful and very informative. And then, there were 2 guys for the installation and one was a trainee but he was there helping too at the same time. My son was there during the time and he said that he had no issues or problems with them. They did a good job. I came after they were done and I was completely satisfied with everybody, from the salesman to the office staff, to the installers, to the people that called to set up the appointment. I also love the quality of the final product.”
Walk-in Tub Features
Walk-in bathtubs are designed to let users enter easily with a convenient entrance door and low step-in. A must-have for those with limited mobility, individuals living with disabilities, and the elderly, walk-in tubs reduce the risk of falls and slips, and based on the features, can contribute to a therapeutic experience. An important feature of walk-in bathtubs is a chair-level seat that lets bathers sit rather than stand, although many tubs are equipped with handheld showerheads so that bathers get the best of both worlds. Most standard soaker walk-in tubs are the same size as regular bathtubs. This means that Bath Fitter can install a bath for you in as little as one day.
Bath Fitter also carries a number of custom add-ons to enhance the safety and comfort of your tub. Features such as anti-slip coating, grab rails, conveniently placed handheld showerheads and towel holders, and other options will make sure that you can use your walk-in bathtub for years to come.
Walk-in Tub Installation
Bath Fitter specializes in custom made bath liners and bathtub conversions. This means that if following your free consultation with an expert, you decide that Bath Fitter is right for you, they may be able to install your tub in just one day with minimal mess and hassle.
