Vancouver homeowners are discovering the life-changing benefits of transforming their tub into a modern walk-in shower with Grand Renovations.

For those seeking additional safety and accessibility, walk in tubs are also an excellent alternative, providing secure and comfortable bathing options for individuals with limited mobility.

Why Choose Grand Renovations for Your Tub-to-Shower Conversion?

Discover the top five reasons Vancouver homeowners trust Grand Renovations to replace their old bathtub with a safer, more accessible shower that transforms their daily routine through expert shower conversion.

Get 40% More Bathing Space – Enjoy a spacious, luxurious shower experience every day

When you transform your tub into a modern walk-in shower in Vancouver properties with Grand Renovations, you can also remove the old tub to make way for a new tub. The typical bathtub wall configuration restricts movement, while a new shower design opens up the entire area. This spacious transformation means you can move freely, add safety accessories like grab bars and shower doors, and even include built-in benches for comfort.

Enhanced Safety & Accessibility – Non-slip surfaces and grab bars protect your family

Grand Renovations’ walk-in showers eliminate the high threshold of traditional bathtubs, offering easy access for family members with limited mobility or mobility issues. Professional installation includes non-slip flooring, strategically placed grab bars, and proper drainage to prevent water damage. Custom tiled showers can also offer various safety features like benches and folding shower seats, enhancing both comfort and accessibility. Our barrier-free shower designs and easy-entry options further improve safety and convenience for all users.

Easier Maintenance – Grout-free, anti-microbial surfaces save you hours of cleaning

Grand Renovations uses high quality materials with seamless wall systems that eliminate troublesome grout lines. These surfaces resist mold and mildew, particularly important in British Columbia’s humid climate. Additionally, some of the conversion products used are marketed as 100% waterproof for life, ensuring long-term durability and protection. The result? A beautiful new shower that stays clean with minimal effort, freeing up time for what matters most.

Increased Home Value – Modern buyers prefer updated bathrooms with contemporary features

Bathroom renovation projects by Grand Renovations consistently deliver strong returns on investment, and shower remodel projects rank among the most valuable improvements. When potential buyers tour your Vancouver home, they notice updated bathrooms immediately. A new bathroom with a walk-in shower signals modern thinking and accessibility awareness, making your house more appealing in Vancouver’s competitive real estate market. Our bathroom upgrades focus on both style and functionality to increase your home's market value.

Water Efficiency – Eco-friendly design perfect for Vancouver’s sustainability goals

Replacing water-hungry bathtubs with efficient showers supports environmental goals while reducing utility costs. Where filling a bathtub requires 60-80 liters, most showers use just 9-14 liters per minute. Combined with low-flow fixtures, this conversion process by Grand Renovations creates an eco-friendly bathing solution that aligns with Vancouver’s sustainability initiatives.

With Grand Renovations’ professional conversion services, you get the luxury of a custom shower without the complexity of major renovation. Designed for Vancouver homeowners, it delivers stunning results in just one day.

What to Expect Before Installation

Before starting your tub-to-shower conversion, Grand Renovations conducts a thorough assessment of your existing bathtub and bathroom space. We check for any signs of wear, water damage, and evaluate the suitability of your current setup for conversion. This includes reviewing plumbing, structural integrity, and safety concerns like slippery surfaces or high tub walls that may impact accessibility.

Preparing your bathroom involves clearing the area, protecting floors and walls, and safely disconnecting plumbing and electrical connections. Our professional team manages all these steps carefully to ensure your home remains protected throughout the process.

The bathtub removal is handled efficiently and with care, minimizing disruption to your daily routine. We dispose of the old tub responsibly and prepare the space for your new shower or walk in tub installation. This streamlined approach ensures a smooth transition from your original bathtub to a modern, accessible shower space.

Bathtub Wall and Surround – Customizing Your Shower’s Look and Durability

The bathtub wall and surround are key elements in defining both the style and resilience of your new shower. When converting your existing bathtub, updating or replacing the original bathtub wall allows you to choose finishes that reflect your personal taste while ensuring long-term durability. Options like elegant tile or modern acrylic panels not only create a visually stunning shower but also provide a waterproof barrier that protects against water damage and simplifies cleaning.

Customizing your shower surround is also the perfect time to add important safety accessories, such as grab bars and non-slip flooring, which are especially valuable for those facing mobility challenges. These features enhance bathroom safety and make your new shower accessible for everyone in your household. In Vancouver, where maximizing space and functionality is a top priority, homeowners often opt for walk-in showers or tub to shower conversions to create a more open, spacious environment. With Grand Renovations, you can trust that your new shower will combine beauty, safety, and practicality—delivering a bathroom upgrade that stands the test of time.

Bathroom Design and Layout

A well-designed bathroom is key to creating an accessible space that meets your unique needs and style preferences. Our design experts at Grand Renovations work closely with you to develop a layout that maximizes both function and beauty. We take into account your existing plumbing, any mobility challenges, and the need for safety accessories such as grab bars or bathtub cutouts.

Whether you’re interested in a walk in tub, accessible showers, or a custom shower conversion, we ensure every detail is considered. Our team specializes in creating bathrooms that are easy to navigate, safe, and visually appealing. From optimizing the placement of fixtures to selecting the right finishes, we are dedicated to complete customer satisfaction and delivering a bathroom that truly enhances your home and lifestyle.

Using conversion kits specifically designed for Vancouver installations, Grand Renovations ensures everything fits perfectly and functions flawlessly. The shower conversion process includes installing shower doors, safety accessories, and all finishing touches. Our “space clean” guarantee means we leave your bathroom cleaner than we found it.

Grand Renovations understands Vancouver’s building codes and handles all permitting requirements, ensuring your shower installation meets or exceeds local standards. This expertise prevents future problems and ensures your conversion adds value rather than creating compliance issues.

Vancouver’s high humidity and frequent rainfall demand specialized materials and installation techniques. Grand Renovations uses advanced acrylic and composite materials specifically chosen for British Columbia’s climate conditions. These surfaces resist moisture penetration and prevent the mold issues common with older tubs and traditional tile installations.

Our wall systems create seamless barriers against moisture while maintaining easy cleaning and attractive appearance. The materials we select have proven performance in Vancouver’s challenging climate, ensuring your investment delivers long-term value and reliability.

FAQ: 10 Most Common Questions About Tub-to-Shower Conversions

Your questions, our detailed answers.

01

What’s the cost of converting a tub to a shower in Vancouver?

03

Can this be done in a small bathroom or condo?

Yes. We specialize in small bathroom walk-in showers and condo layouts. Space-saving designs like sliding glass doors or corner entries make conversions practical even in tight spaces.

05

Can I keep a soaking feature if I remove my tub?

Absolutely. Options include a walk-in tub + shower combo or a deep shower base designed for partial soaking. Our team can advise the best fit for your lifestyle.

07

Can I use a prefab shower kit to save money?

Prefab kits are available, but they often lack the durability and design flexibility of custom builds. We recommend custom or semi-custom solutions for better longevity and resale value.

09

Will this upgrade affect my home’s resale value?

Yes. Bathroom upgrades with modern walk-in showers increase home value and appeal to buyers. In Vancouver’s competitive housing market, a tub-to-shower conversion can deliver one of the highest ROI percentages in remodeling.

02

How long does a tub-to-shower conversion take?

Most conversions are completed in 3–5 business days from start to finish. Complex projects with plumbing relocations or custom tile work may take longer.

04

Are permits required for a tub-to-shower conversion?

In most Vancouver homes, yes. We handle city permits, strata approvals, and BC Building Code compliance so you don’t have to worry about paperwork.

06

Are walk-in showers safer for seniors?

Yes. Walk-in showers improve safety with curbless entries, grab bars, slip-resistant tiles, and built-in benches. These features are especially popular with aging-in-place renovations.

08

What shower door style works best?

For small spaces, sliding glass doors are ideal. For larger bathrooms, frameless hinged doors provide a modern, open feel. We’ll match the door style to your bathroom design.

10

What’s included in a full conversion package?

Our conversions cover demolition, plumbing, waterproofing, wall systems, tile or panels, shower doors, and fixtures. You’ll receive a turnkey service with everything managed from start to finish.
