Tub to shower conversion for Magnolia, TX — from acreage homesteads to High Meadow Ranch, walk-in showers installed in 2–5 days by your Magnolia neighbors.
UES Solutions, based in the Magnolia, TX area, converts bathtubs to walk-in showers in 2–5 days. Acrylic conversions start at $6,495 and tiled showers at $8,995 — same price for acreage and subdivision homes. One veteran-owned crew does demo, plumbing, tile, and glass, backed by a 1-Year Workmanship Warranty.
Magnolia is home for us — UES Solutions operates out of the Magnolia area, so when you call, you’re getting a crew that already drives 1488 and 1774 every day. That matters on a bathroom project: no travel surcharges, no “we’ll be out next month,” and no wondering whether the company will still be around if you need something after the job.
Magnolia bathrooms come in every flavor: 1980s and ’90s ranch homes on acreage, custom builds in High Meadow Ranch and Lake Windcrest, and newer subdivision homes off 1488. Whether the tub is a 30-year-old cast-iron original or a builder-grade unit you’ve never used, a tub-to-shower conversion is the fastest way to modernize the room and make it safer — without expanding the footprint. Our crew handles demo, plumbing, waterproofing, tile or acrylic, glass, and paint in-house, so the job doesn’t stall waiting on subcontractors.

Frequently asked questions
How long does a tub-to-shower conversion take?
Most conversions are finished in 2–5 days. Acrylic surrounds are the fastest; fully tiled showers take a little longer because the waterproofing and mortar need to cure between steps. We’ll give you a firm schedule in your quote.
How much does a tub-to-shower conversion cost?
Our conversions start at $6,495 for an acrylic walk-in shower. Standard tiled showers run $8,995–$10,500, and upgraded custom tile showers with built-in niches, a bench, and grab bars run $11,000–$14,000+. The biggest cost drivers are the surround (acrylic vs. tile), the glass (curtain rod vs. frameless door), and whether the drain or valve needs to move. Your estimate is free, written, and itemized so you can see exactly where the money goes.
Will removing my only tub hurt my home’s value?
Buyers today generally prefer a walk-in shower in the primary bath. If the tub you’re converting is the only one in the house and you have young kids or plan to sell to a family, we’ll talk it through honestly — we’d rather you keep a tub in a hall bath than regret the change.
Do I need a permit?
Swapping a tub for a shower in the same location usually doesn’t require a permit in Montgomery County, but moving plumbing or electrical can. We’ll tell you up front if your project needs one and handle it if it does.
Can you make it accessible for aging in place?
Yes. Low-threshold or curbless entry, a built-in or fold-down bench, a handheld shower head, non-slip floor tile, and grab bars mounted into solid blocking are all standard options. Many of our conversions are for homeowners who want to stay in their home safely for years to come.
Do you do the plumbing yourselves?
Yes. Valve replacement, drain relocation, and supply line work are done by our crew, so there’s no scheduling gap between demo and tile.
Is the work under warranty?
Yes. Every conversion is covered by the UES Solutions 1-Year Workmanship Warranty, in addition to the manufacturer warranties on the acrylic, tile, glass, and fixtures we install. If something we built isn’t right, we come back and fix it.
We’re on a well and septic. Does that change anything?
Not for the shower itself. A conversion uses the same drain line and supply as the tub did. If you’re on a well with hard water, we’ll recommend fixtures and glass treatments that resist mineral buildup, and we can add a shutoff or pressure check if we see an issue while the wall is open.
Do you charge extra to come out to acreage properties?
No. We’re based in the Magnolia area and serve all of Magnolia, Pinehurst, and Stagecoach at the same price. Your estimate is the estimate.
