Rub a dub, that shower was once a tub!
You don’t always have to move to get a more accessible shower, nor do you have to get rid of your old bathtub. Aging baby boomers and those losing mobility will be glad to know that for as little as $800 and in less than 4 hours, they can have their old tub transformed into a shower. Access Designs Inc. of Charlottesville, Virginia has developed a system called TubCut which removes an 18 – 36 inch passage from the wall of the bath. It is then finished it so that it appears like it was always that way. The chunk of tub can also be reinstalled later down the road, just in case potential buyers are looking for a bathtub, and they’ll never be able to tell the difference.
