Type of Walk-In Bathtub: Standard walk-in tubs vs. luxury models with added features
Customization Options: Choices like whirlpool jets, heated surfaces, and additional spa-like features and accessories
Installation Complexity: Factors such as plumbing adjustments, accessibility needs, and wall modifications
Additional Features: Special safety features, such as grab bars, slip-resistant floors, and easy-to-operate controls
Having a clear vision for your walk-in bathtub conversion will help you more accurately estimate the total installation cost. These details can also guide your planning and ensure you get the most value from your investment.

Tubs with high-quality engineering and design for a more comfortable, accessible, and reliable experience will have a higher cost associated.

Walk-in tubs are not the only safe bathing solution available for seniors or those with mobility challenges. Learn more about the costs associated with other options.
Older adults who need help with medical and/or personal care may benefit from in-home or long-term residential care.
Unlike a walk-in tub, which is a one-time purchase, care services require yearly payments. A person's individual needs and level of independence will determine the type of care and assistance needed.

Bath chairs, transfer benches and other bath safety equipment allow individuals with various mobility needs to shower or bathe in the comfort and privacy of their own homes. These in-home alternatives are ideal for people who consider safety a top priority and can go without enhanced comfort features.
Accessible showers like walk-in and roll-in showers promote independence and safety. The main difference between the two is the curb height — walk-ins feature a low-step base, while roll-ins are barrier-free and may be wheelchair accessible.
If you want a safe bathing solution without the added comfort features, you may consider a shower instead of a walk-in tub.
You can expect to pay between $5,000 to $30,000+ for a roll-in or walk-in shower without installation.
