Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a tub-to-shower conversion cost in Boise?

Tub-to-shower conversions typically cost $6,000-$15,000 in the Boise area depending on tile selection, glass type, and whether plumbing needs to be relocated.

How long does a tub-to-shower conversion take?

Most conversions are completed in 5-10 business days. Simple conversions with acrylic surrounds can be done in 3-5 days.

Will removing a bathtub hurt my home value?

As long as your home retains at least one bathtub (typically in a secondary bathroom), converting an additional tub to a shower generally adds value. Walk-in showers are the most requested bathroom feature in the Boise market.

Tub-to-Shower Conversion in Boise Neighborhoods

We provide tub-to-shower conversion services throughout Boise, including these neighborhoods and surrounding areas.

North EndEast EndSoutheast BoiseWest BoiseSouthwest BoiseDowntown BoiseBoise BenchHarris RanchHidden SpringsColumbia VillageWarm SpringsBarber Valley

Boise's housing stock spans a century of architectural styles. The North End features 1920s–1950s Craftsman bungalows with original hardwood floors, single-pane windows, and compact galley kitchens that benefit from thoughtful modernization. The Bench and Vista neighborhoods are dominated by mid-century ranches with solid bones but outdated kitchens, bathrooms, and electrical systems. Harris Ranch and Southeast Boise feature modern construction from the 2000s onward — builder-grade finishes that homeowners upgrade within 5–10 years of purchase. Each era presents distinct remodeling opportunities and challenges that our crews encounter daily.

What Boise Clients Say

Iron Crest completely transformed our 1940s North End kitchen. They navigated the quirks of our old house — knob-and-tube wiring, plaster walls, uneven floors — and delivered a kitchen that feels both modern and true to the home's character.

Sarah M., North End | Kitchen Remodeling

We had three contractors bid on our master bathroom remodel. Iron Crest was the only one who identified the galvanized drain lines behind the walls and included replacement in their scope. No surprises during construction.

David & Lisa R., Southeast Boise | Bathroom Remodeling

Our Bench ranch needed everything — kitchen, both bathrooms, flooring, paint. Iron Crest managed the whole project as a single scope with one timeline and one point of contact. Finished on schedule and on budget.
