Historic village homes plus 1990s+ subdivisions. Independence Township's larger newer homes typically have both a garden tub and separate shower in the master, making the tub the obvious candidate for conversion.
That single fact drives most of what a job here costs. The age of the house determines whether the tub is cast iron or fiberglass, whether there's plaster or drywall behind the tile, and whether the bathroom is upstairs at the top of a narrow staircase. Knowing that before we arrive is why we can quote Clarkston & Independence Twp accurately over the phone instead of sending someone out to look.

A large share of Clarkston & Independence Twp homes have both a tub and a separate shower in the master bathroom. If you're in one of those, you already know the tub hasn't been filled in years — it's holding towels, or nothing at all.
That's the easiest conversion we do and the highest-value one. The footprint, the drain and the water supply are already there. Converting it gives you one large, genuinely usable shower instead of two compromised fixtures.
