If you are weighing tub to shower conversion work in Shreveport, LA, the right number depends on the scope, the materials you choose, and the condition of what is there now. Below is what most local homeowners pay, what moves the price, and how we handle the job from inspection through cleanup.

What Shreveport homes mean for your tub to shower conversion project

Shreveport is the largest city in northwest Louisiana, spread along the west bank of the Red River, and our Bossier City location on East Texas Street serves it from just across the bridge. Neighborhoods like Highland and South Highlands carry craftsman and cottage homes from the early 1900s, while Broadmoor and much of the rest of the city filled in with brick ranches in the postwar decades, which matches the citywide median year built of 1973. Barksdale Air Force Base across the river anchors a large military and veteran community, and walk in tubs and barrier free showers are a frequent ask from retired service members and their families.

The typical Shreveport home dates to around 1973 per Census data, roughly 53 years of Florida sun, storms, and daily use. There are roughly 90,295 housing units here with a median value near $178,100. That local mix shapes how we scope and schedule tub to shower conversion work here. Figures are U.S. Census Bureau American Community Survey estimates.

Why homeowners convert a tub to a shower

If the tub in your Shreveport, LA home only ever collects dust, converting it to a walk in shower reclaims the space and makes the bathroom far easier and safer to use. A low step or barrier free threshold, a built in seat, and grab bars turn a daily hazard into a simple routine, and a modern acrylic surround wipes clean in seconds with no grout to scrub. Tubbs by Grubbs handles the whole conversion with our own installers, usually in one to two days, and backs it with a lifetime workmanship warranty.
