Tub to shower conversion

Are you tired of stepping over a high, slippery tub wall every morning? For many homeowners, a bathtub is a relic of the past that takes up valuable space and creates a safety hazard. At 1st Choice Home Improvements, we specialize in tub-to-shower conversions that "un-ugly" your bathroom while providing a safer, more accessible, and spa-like experience.

Upgrade to a Walk-In Shower in Pensacola

Safer, easier-to-access showers designed for comfort, space, and modern living—installed in as little as 1–2 weeks.

If your bathtub is rarely used, difficult to step into, or simply outdated, a tub-to-shower conversion is one of the smartest upgrades you can make for your home in Pensacola, Gulf Breeze, or Cantonment. Many older homes in Molino and Pace were built with standard 5-foot tubs that serve as "visual roadblocks" in a bathroom.

By removing that high-walled tub, you instantly open up the floor plan. This is a game-changer for small bathroom remodels, as it allows for seamless glass entries that make the entire room feel significantly larger. Whether you are updating a beach condo in Perdido Key or a family home in Milton, replacing that tub is the first step toward a modern sanctuary.

Why Homeowners Are Switching to Showers

The trend across Northwest Florida and South Alabama is clear: homeowners are ditching the tub for the convenience of a walk-in shower. Here’s why more homeowners across Pensacola are making the switch:

  • Safer and easier access: Low-threshold or barrier-free entries drastically reduce the risk of slips and falls, providing peace of mind for seniors and those with limited mobility.
  • More usable space: A walk-in shower offers much more "elbow room" than a cramped tub-shower combo, allowing for a more comfortable daily routine.
  • Modern design appeal: Nothing "un-uglies" a bathroom faster than high-end tile work and frameless glass. It transforms a functional room into a design feature.
  • Increased home value: In today’s real estate market in Fort Walton Beach and Destin, a master bathroom with a large walk-in shower is a high-demand feature that attracts buyers.
  • Easier cleaning and maintenance: Modern acrylic systems and large-format tiles mean fewer grout lines and easier-to-clean surfaces than old porcelain or fiberglass tubs.

Custom Walk-In Showers Designed for You

Once the tub is gone, this is where the transformation really happens. At 1st Choice, we believe every project should reflect the homeowner's unique style. Whether you want a simple, clean update or a full luxury bathroom remodel, every shower is tailored to your space:

  • Frameless glass enclosures: To create a seamless, high-end look that doesn't block the light in your Mary Esther or Navarre home.
  • Custom tile or acrylic systems: We offer a wide variety of textures and colors designed to withstand the humid Gulf Coast climate.
  • Built-in seating and shelving: Integrated benches and recessed niches keep your shower organized and comfortable.
  • Rainfall and multi-head systems: Elevate your shower into a spa experience with multi-point water systems and high-end designer fixtures.

If your current plumbing is in the wrong spot, don't worry. We also specialize in bathroom layout remodels, where we can relocate drains and fixtures to ensure your new shower is perfectly positioned for maximum flow and comfort.

Professional Installation, Start to Finish

You won’t be left managing multiple contractors - we handle everything. We know that home renovations can be stressful, which is why we handle every detail from demolition and plumbing to installation, cleanup, and permits. You won't have to worry about tracking down multiple contractors in Fairhope, Daphne, or Spanish Fort.

Our "owner-operated" approach means we ensure all materials—including custom glass and fixtures—are in our Pensacola warehouse before we ever start demolition. This unique process allows us to complete most tub-to-shower conversions in about 1–2 weeks, minimizing the disruption to your household.

Our Google Review

We had a walk in shower put in by 1st Choice and the installer Justin was awesome and did a super job! They are professionals and take pride in their work. We will probably have them replace other shower as well! They are prompt and work around your schedule and clean up after themselves at the end of each job. Highly recommend 1st Choice to anyone wanting to get any work done.
