What Safe Step Customers Are Saying

The first time I took [a bath], I said, ‘Wow.’ I bought the Safe Step tub because I needed to take a bath and I hadn’t taken a bath in years because my knees are bad. It’s hard for me to step over and get in and out of tubs. I can feel the difference in my skin. It’s good for helping my muscles. The first time I took it, I said, “Wow.”

FAQs

While the time will vary depending on your space and tub setup, our certified installation team works quickly and thoroughly to ensure the job gets done right the first time. For the majority of our customers, we can replace your shower with a new walk-in tub in as little as one day.

There is no one-size-fits-all cost when doing a shower to walk-in tub remodel since the necessary renovations, plumbing work, specifications of the tub, customizations and details of installation will vary so widely. During your free consultation, we can help you find the best walk-in bath solution for your space and budget while offering a lowest price guarantee to ensure you get a fair, competitive price.

Yes. Removing your shower and installing a new tub requires specialized skills in plumbing, electrical work, tiling, drywall and many safety protocols. Installing a walk-in bath yourself, for even the most experienced DIY-ers, could mean leaks, problems and extra costs down the road. Our professional installation team brings years of experience and an in-depth knowledge of installation from initial consultation to final cleanup.

Increased home value is possible when installing a walk-in tub, especially if you live in a community with other senior, mobility-challenged or veteran residents. Plus, walk-in bathtubs include a wider range of features than a traditional tub or shower, from water and air jets to heated seats, built-in grab bars, anti-scald technology and much more.

Maintenance for walk-in bathtubs is very similar to that of traditional tubs. We suggest rinsing your tub after each use, a weekly wipe-down to remove stains and buildup, plus a monthly deep clean to purge the air or water jet systems. Read our product care guide for a complete list of maintenance recommendations.
