One Day Bathtub to Shower Conversion in Kentucky

A tub to shower overnight makeover with a one day shower replacement

When Nancy Smith met the Improveit team at the Kentucky State Fair, she was ready for a bathroom upgrade that would make her life easier. A one-day bathtub to shower conversion was the perfect solution! Nancy wanted to replace her old tub/shower combo with a spacious, modern shower that was safer than climbing over the side of the tub. After meeting with a trusted Improveit advisor, Nancy’s new design came together quickly without interrupting her usual routine.

The Louisville one day Shower Replacement Process

Installation day started by removing Nancy’s old tub and shower down to the studs, repairing plumbing and updating insulation along the way. Installers added blocking between the studs so Nancy’s new grab bars could be installed securely, exactly where she wanted them. With repairs made behind the walls, new waterproof backerboard was added to create a solid water-safe substrate for her new shower. That’s when the transformation really started to take shape.

Nancy’s design featured a white low-threshold shower base paired with stunning Calcutta marble shower walls and matching corner shelves for a clean, timeless look. To complete the design, installers placed Nancy’s selected brushed nickel fixtures, including a hand-held showerhead and Brantford style, two sturdy Eva style grab bars, and a sleek sliding glass shower door. The result is a safe, stylish, functional space she’ll love for years to come!
