Walk-In Showers in Casselberry, FL

Usually yes. A standard 5-foot tub space can become a shower of the same length with a low curb or no curb, a fixed glass panel instead of a swinging door and a recessed niche instead of a corner shelf. If the room needs more width, borrowing space from an adjacent closet is common in Casselberry ranches, which means moving the drain through the slab.

In most Casselberry ranches, yes. Interior walls are usually wood frame, but one may carry the roof, so we check the framing before designing. If it is load-bearing, a beam takes over the load and the change goes on the city building permit. The bigger cost driver is usually moving the sink to an island, because that means cutting the slab.

The City of Casselberry Building Division issues permits for properties inside city limits, through its online portal. If your property is in unincorporated Seminole County, even with a Casselberry mailing address, the Seminole County Building Division issues the permit instead. We check the property appraiser record and file with the correct office.

It depends on how much the plumbing moves, the shower size, the tile and the glass. A conversion that stays in the tub footprint with a low curb is a smaller project than a curbless shower that recesses the slab and uses a linear drain and large frameless glass. We give a written estimate after measuring your bathroom at home.

Most tub to shower conversions take about 2 to 3 weeks of work on site, plus time for the glass. Demolition and plumbing take a few days, waterproofing and tile about a week or two, and the glass is measured after tile and installed 1 to 2 weeks later.

Usually yes. A tub to shower conversion changes the drain and the valve, and plumbing changes generally require a permit from your city or county building department. We pull the plumbing permit under our own license, schedule the inspections and close the permit out, so the work is on record when you sell.
