Walk-In Tub Installation in Woodward, OK

Walk-In Tubs · Woodward, OK

Step through a door instead of over a tub wall

Walk-in tub installation swaps a standard bathtub, the kind you step over, for a tub you enter through a door. Inside, you sit on a built-in seat and latch the door before the water runs. Mulberry Creek Construction is based in Woodward. We install walk-in tubs about 150 miles around Woodward, across northwest and western Oklahoma and the Oklahoma City metro.

We handle every trade on the job, so you have one point of contact. That covers the old tub coming out, the plumbing and wiring, the walls and floor, and the grab bars. If the whole room needs work, the tub can be part of a full bathroom remodel. For wider doorways and grab bars in the rest of the house, see accessibility remodeling.

What We Handle

  • Removal of the old bathtub
  • Water lines and drain moved to meet the new tub
  • Separate GFCI circuits for jets and inline heaters
  • Tub set level so the door seals
  • Water test with the door latched
  • Tile or a water-resistant surround above the tub
  • Floor repair around the new tub
  • Grab bars anchored into wood blocking

What does walk-in tub installation involve?

The job starts with the old tub. We take it out and open the wall around it so the new tub can sit against the studs. If the floor under the old tub is soft, we repair it before the new tub goes in.

A walk-in tub sits taller than a standard tub, so the water lines may need to move up. The drain may move too, so it lines up with the new tub. Tubs with jets or a heater need power. Installation guides put each powered part on its own circuit with ground-fault (GFCI) protection.

Then the tub goes in, set level front to back and side to side. The door seal depends on that. Before the walls are finished, we fill the tub with the door latched and check every fitting for leaks. Tile or a wall surround goes above the tub, and any pump stays reachable behind a removable panel.

What to check in your bathroom before you choose a walk-in tub

Start with the path into the room. The tub has to fit through the hall and the bathroom door on its way in. Then pick the door side. Walk-in tubs come in left-hand and right-hand versions, so choose the side that makes getting in and out easy.

Think about where you will hold on as you step in and sit down. We add wood blocking in the wall before the tub goes in. Each grab bar then anchors into solid wood.

Two checks sit outside the bathroom. A deep tub takes a lot of hot water, so the water heater has to keep up. A tub with jets also needs open space in the electrical panel for its circuits. We look at both when we see the room.

How a walk-in tub install runs in Woodward and northwest Oklahoma

Each job starts with a conversation and a look at the bathroom. Before we meet, jot down what frustrates you about the room each day. Then we write up your free estimate, and you deal with one contractor through the whole job. Plan on another place to bathe until the new tub is ready.

Our service area takes in towns such as Alva, Enid, Weatherford and Elk City, plus the Oklahoma City metro. See the towns we serve for the full list. About half the homes in Woodward were built in 1975 or earlier, by U.S. Census Bureau figures. In a house that age, the pipes and the electrical panel may need work before a walk-in tub goes in.

FAQ

Walk-In Tubs Questions, Answered

Common questions about walk-in tubs around Woodward and the Oklahoma City metro. If yours is not here, call or text and ask.

Call (580) 216-9022

How much does walk-in tub installation cost?
The tub itself sets part of the price, and the work around it sets the rest. Jets or a heater add circuits, and moving the drain adds plumbing. We look at the room and give you a free written estimate. Our Oklahoma walk-in tub cost guide covers published market ranges.
Will a walk-in tub fit where my old tub was?
Often, yes. Installation guides show walk-in tubs set into the 60-inch space a standard tub leaves, with panels to close any gap. We measure the space at the first visit, before you choose a tub.
What are the downsides of a walk-in tub?
You sit in the tub while it fills, and installation guides say to drain it before you open the door. So each bath takes some waiting. If you want a quick wash, or you use a wheelchair, a curbless shower may suit you better. We can quote both options when we see the room.
Do I need a permit to install a walk-in tub?
Inside Woodward city limits, the Code Enforcement Office issues permits, and the city requires one for plumbing and electrical work. Permits there come before work begins. Other towns set their own rules, and their permit offices answer that question.
Can a walk-in tub have a handheld shower?
Yes, if the model allows one. Installation guides say to plan its water line before the tub goes in. One guide places it at the corner closest to the wall, so water stays off the floor. Tell us at the estimate where you want it.
Will you install a walk-in tub I already picked out?
Yes. We install the walk-in tub you choose and handle the work around it. Before you buy, have us check the space and the power the tub needs. Call or text (580) 216-9022 to set up that visit.
