Walk-In Shower vs Tub
Ripping out the tub for a walk-in shower is popular — but it's not always the right call.
It's one of the most common bathroom-reno decisions in Waterloo. Here's how to think about it.
Go walk-in if
- You want a modern, open look
- You're planning to age in place
- Nobody uses the tub
Keep a tub if
- You have young kids
- It's your only bathtub and resale matters
A curbless walk-in shower is a great upgrade — just keep at least one tub in the house for resale.
Not sure? We'll walk your space and give honest advice.
Frequently asked questions
Does removing the only tub hurt resale?
