Kanata has a mix of 1970s and 1980s homes in Beaverbrook and Glen Cairn and newer builds in Kanata Lakes and Bridlewood. The newer ones often have a large soaker tub in the ensuite that nobody uses.
Replacing that tub with a big walk-in shower is one of the most common jobs we quote in Kanata.
Down to the studs: new plumbing where needed, subfloor repair, waterproofing, tile, vanity, fixtures and a fan that actually vents outside.
Take out a tub you never use and put in a walk-in shower with a proper base, membrane and glass.
Curbless or low-threshold showers, grab bars on proper blocking, a bench and handheld shower for aging in place.
Shower walls, floors and heated floors, installed over a continuous waterproofing membrane.
