Dearborn Heights homeowners often assume the tub can't come out because of the tile around it. It can — removing a tub without gutting the surrounding walls is most of what we do.

Dearborn Heights sits between Dearborn's older stock and Westland's ranches, and gets both — north-end bungalows with cast iron, south-end ranches with steel or fiberglass alcoves.
Housing here is largely 1950s-60s ranches and brick bungalows, and that shapes everything about a conversion: how the tub comes out, what's behind the wall, and how long we're in your house. We've done enough Dearborn Heights bathrooms to know what we're walking into, which is why we quote a fixed price instead of an hourly rate that grows once the wall is open.
From $6,995

Remove the old bathtub entirely and replace it with a low-threshold walk-in shower — new base, new waterproof walls, new fixtures.
Keep your existing tub. We cut a low step-through opening in the wall of it and finish the edges with a molded insert.
A full Ella's Bubbles walk-in bathtub with a sealing door, molded seat, grab bars and optional hydrotherapy jets.
Starting prices, installed. Your fixed quote depends on alcove size, existing tub material and the finishes you choose. Financing available with approved credit.
Wayne County has the oldest housing stock we work in, and older homes hold surprises: galvanized supply lines that should be replaced while the wall is open, plaster that doesn't take a screw the way drywall does, and tile set directly into mortar beds rather than backer board.
None of that is a problem — it's just work that has to be anticipated. When a contractor quotes a Dearborn Heights bathroom as though it were new construction, that's when the price changes halfway through. We price the house that's actually there.
