Walk-in shower conversion, Garden City, MI

Garden City was platted with unusually generous lots and single-story homes, and its long-term residents make it one of the steadiest markets for walk-in tubs and step-through cutouts in western Wayne County.

Housing here is largely post-war ranches on wide lots, 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 Garden City 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.

Three Options for Garden City Homeowners

Tub to Shower Conversion

From $6,995

installed · financing available

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.

One Bathroom, One Shot

A lot of Wayne County homes — particularly the bungalows and smaller post-war houses across Garden City — have exactly one full bathroom. There's no second bath to use while the work happens.

That's the single biggest reason we work to a one-day schedule. A week-long remodel in a one-bathroom house isn't an inconvenience, it's a genuine problem for the people living there.

How a Garden City Install Works

Photo or phone quote

Most people never need an in-home visit. Send a wide shot of the bathroom and the alcove width.

Written fixed price

In writing, before anything is ordered. That number doesn't move unless you change the scope.

One day on site

Morning start, evening finish. You keep your bathroom the same night in most cases.

24 hours to cure

Silicone needs a day to fully set, so we say shower in it tomorrow morning.

Common Questions

Can you make it wheelchair accessible?

Yes. We install fully barrier-free, zero-threshold shower bases and L-shape wheelchair-transfer walk-in tubs, and can fit grab bars into solid blocking behind the wall on any job.

Is financing available for Garden City homeowners?

Yes, financing is available with approved credit for Garden City homeowners, across all three services — cutouts, full conversions and walk-in tubs.

What's the difference between a cutout and a full conversion?

A cutout (from $1,550) leaves your existing tub in place and cuts a low step-through opening into its wall — done in a few hours. A full conversion (from $6,995) removes the tub entirely and replaces it with a walk-in shower, base and waterproof walls — done in about a day. Cutouts are the lower-cost fix; conversions are the more complete, longer-term one.

Do you charge for the quote?

No. Quotes are free, whether by phone, by emailing a photo to bob@detroittubs.com, or in person. You get a fixed price in writing before anything is ordered.

How long will the job take in my Garden City home?

Call (586) 791-4800 and describe your Garden City bathroom — most questions like this are easiest to answer with a quick phone call, and we'll give you a straight answer along with a fixed price.

Will you have to tear out my whole bathroom?

No. We work inside the existing tub footprint — the floor, vanity, toilet and rest of the room stay exactly as they are. Only the tub and the wall around it are opened up.
