Converted lake cottages and small post-war homes. Keego Harbor's compact lake homes have some of the smallest bathrooms in Oakland County, where removing the tub is the only way to gain meaningful space.
People are often surprised that removal is the hard part rather than the installation. Anyone can glue up a wall panel. Getting a 350-pound cast iron tub out of a bathroom without wrecking the doorframe, the stair treads or the floor is the part that takes 18 years to learn.
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.
Homeowners in Keego Harbor generally aren't looking for the cheapest possible fix, and we don't push one. The wall finish, the glass, whether there's a bench and a recessed niche — those choices are the difference between a bathroom that looks renovated and one that looks repaired.
We'll show you the range and tell you honestly where spending more actually shows and where it doesn't.
We measure
Alcove width, doorway clearance, tub material. Ten minutes, and it's what makes the quote accurate.
Wall panel or tile, bench or no bench, glass or curtain. Fixed price either way.
Floors covered before anything moves. Tub out, base in, walls up, fixtures on.
We run the water with you, show you everything, and answer questions before we leave.

Yes — cast iron is common in older Metro Detroit homes and we cut it down in place rather than trying to carry it out whole. It takes longer than fiberglass or steel, and we account for that in the quote.
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.
Yes, financing is available with approved credit for Keego Harbor homeowners, across all three services — cutouts, full conversions and walk-in tubs.
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.
Permit requirements vary by municipality. Where Keego Harbor requires a permit for this type of work, we handle pulling it as part of the job — it's included in your fixed price, not an add-on.
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.
