Tub-to-Shower Conversions in Boerne, TX

For homeowners who put down roots in Boerne years ago and are still in the same house — with the same bathtub.

A lot of the tub-to-shower conversions we do around Boerne aren't for new buyers. They're for the original owners of a home in Tapatio Springs, Fair Oaks Ranch, or one of the town's established neighborhoods — people still living in the house they bought twenty or thirty years ago.

The bathtub that made sense for a young family in the 1990s becomes a real daily obstacle later on. A tub-to-shower conversion removes it entirely and replaces it with a safe, accessible walk-in shower.

A Town Where People Stay Put

Boerne is a place with unusually deep roots. The town was settled by German colonists in the 1840s, and some of those institutions are still running: the Boerne Village Band, founded in 1860, is the oldest continuously active German band outside Germany, and Berges Fest has filled Main Street every Father's Day weekend since 1967. That continuity isn't just a tourism pitch — it reflects families who stay in Boerne across decades and generations.

It also shows in the demographics. About 18.2% of Boerne residents are 65 or older, above the national figure of roughly 16.8%. Many of them are in the same home they raised a family in, and that home still has its original primary bathroom.

Bathrooms from that build era usually have a deep garden tub or a standard alcove tub as the only bathing option. Climbing over a 14- to 18-inch tub wall is one of the most common ways people get hurt at home, and it gets riskier with age, a balance change, or recovery from a surgery or injury.

A tub-to-shower conversion is a targeted fix rather than a whole-house project: we remove the tub completely, waterproof the space floor to ceiling, and install a walk-in shower sized to the opening you already have — usually without touching the rest of the bathroom.

Frequently Asked Questions

I've lived in my Boerne home for 20+ years — how disruptive is this?

Less than most people expect. Most tub-to-shower conversions in the Boerne area are completed in about two days, and the work stays inside your existing bathroom footprint — in most cases there is no need to relocate plumbing or expand the room.

Is a permit required to convert a tub to a shower in Boerne?

It depends on the scope of the work. We confirm the requirements with the City of Boerne for your specific project and handle any permitting that turns out to be needed — that is part of the job, not something we hand back to you.

Can the new shower match the rest of my existing bathroom?

We design each conversion around your bathroom's current layout and plumbing wall, and offer a range of wall panel and fixture finishes, so the finished shower reads as an intentional upgrade rather than an obvious retrofit.
