Tub-To-Shower Conversion Cost in Indianapolis

Tub-to-shower conversions with Signature Pro start at $4,000. Most projects fall in a $5,000 to $10,000 range for acrylic conversions and $8,000 to $15,000 for tile conversions. Pricing varies based on wall material, glass enclosure, and the condition of the existing tub area.

What Affects the Price

An acrylic tub-to-shower conversion is the fastest, lowest-cost path. A tile conversion takes longer and costs more but produces an upscale, custom look.

Glass enclosure choice (curtain, framed glass, frameless glass) and entry type (curb vs curbless) are the next biggest variables.

Local Cost Factors

Drain conversion is part of every project. A tub drain is offset and 1.5 inches; a shower drain is centered and 2 inches, requiring access from below. Older Indianapolis homes with cast iron drains may need additional plumbing work. Adding grab-bar blocking during the conversion costs little extra and is the right time to plan for future safety hardware.

Common Questions

Does drain conversion add a lot of cost?

Drain conversion is a normal part of every project and is included in the quote. Older Indianapolis homes with cast iron drains may need additional plumbing work that gets called out separately if needed.

Is curbless worth the extra cost?

For aging-in-place planning, often yes. Curbless adds $2,000 to $5,000 over a curbed shower but produces a step-free entry that is safer long-term and looks more modern.

Will the new shower be larger than the tub?

The shower uses the existing 30x60 inch tub footprint, which is already a roomy walk-in shower. Expanding into adjacent space is possible if the layout allows.
