More Than a Surface-Level Update

Replace the Builder-Grade Shower Your Powell Home Has Outgrown

A shower that felt adequate when the home was built can become cramped, difficult to clean and poorly suited to the way the bathroom is used today.

Many established Powell bathrooms still contain small fiberglass stalls, aging tub-and-shower units, heavy framed doors, limited storage and fixtures that make the entire room feel dated. A complete shower replacement lets those problems be addressed together.

  • Open up the shower: replace a tight enclosure with a better base and glass configuration.
  • Improve daily maintenance: remove worn fiberglass, door tracks and difficult-to-clean surfaces.
  • Coordinate the finished system: bring the walls, base, fixtures, storage and glass together visually.

The existing shower is removed—not concealed.

Removing the old unit allows the exposed area to be evaluated and prepared for a stable base, waterproof wall system and complete shower installation designed for long-term daily use.

Reclaim the Space You Already Have

Turn an Underused Bathtub Into a Shower That Works Better Every Day

A bathtub that is rarely used can occupy some of the most valuable space in the bathroom while leaving the daily shower too small, difficult to enter or inconveniently arranged.

A Powell tub-to-shower conversion can reuse the existing alcove or reclaim a larger garden-tub footprint to create easier entry, more comfortable showering and storage placed where it is actually useful.

  • Standard bathtub alcoves: replace the high tub wall with a lower-entry shower base.
  • Fiberglass tub/shower units: remove the aging insert and prepare the area for a complete waterproof system.
  • Garden and jetted tubs: use the larger footprint for more shower space, storage, seating or a more open glass configuration.

Build the new shower from the exposed space outward.

After the bathtub is removed, the area is evaluated and prepared for the appropriate base, waterproof walls, plumbing fixtures, recessed storage and glass—rather than covering the old materials with a prefabricated insert.

Before and After

See What Replacing an Outdated Tub or Shower Can Change

One focused conversion can remove a difficult bathtub entry, update the most visible part of the bathroom and create a shower that is easier to use and maintain every day.

Before Outdated bathtub and shower before a Powell-style bathroom conversion
An aging tub and shower that no longer fit daily use The original bathtub created a higher step while the surrounding materials made the wet area feel dated and harder to maintain.
After Completed low-profile tub-to-shower conversion for a Powell Tennessee bathroom

  • Lower shower entry
  • Better use of the tub footprint
  • Updated waterproof surfaces
  • Simpler daily maintenance

Every bathroom begins with a different layout and set of priorities. The goal is to identify what is no longer working and replace it with a shower that fits the room and the household using it.

The Same Local Team From Planning Through Completion

Planned by an Experienced Project Manager and Installed by Our Local Team

A successful bathroom project requires the plan discussed during the consultation to carry through to the work performed inside your home. That connection begins before the proposal is written.

Before Construction

Your Project Manager Starts With the Bathroom

Instead of beginning with a scripted presentation, the consultation begins with the existing room, what frustrates you about it and the result you want from the project.

  • Actual measurements: the shower, tub and surrounding bathroom are measured in person.
  • Relevant selections: options are narrowed around the layout, household and desired result.
  • Defined proposal: materials and included work are documented before scheduling.
  • Time to decide: there is no same-day pressure to approve the project.
During Construction

Our Employee Installers Carry Out the Plan

The people performing the work are part of our local installation team. They receive the project scope and selections developed during the planning stage.

  • Home protection: work areas and travel paths are protected before removal begins.
  • Proper preparation: exposed conditions are evaluated before the new system is installed.
  • Realistic execution: the schedule follows the work required instead of a universal claim.
  • Final walkthrough: the completed bathroom is reviewed with you before the project closes.

A decade of local experience—with service that continues after installation.

We remain available after the final walkthrough to answer questions, provide support and stand behind the bathroom and shower work completed in your Powell home.

Comfortable Access With a Residential Finish

Create an Easier-to-Use Shower Without Giving It an Institutional Look

Better access can be incorporated into a shower that still feels intentional, modern and appropriate for the rest of your Powell home. The base, walls, storage, fixtures, seating and glass should work as one coordinated system.

This completed conversion combines easier entry and practical support features with a clean black-and-white design that looks like part of the bathroom—not an accessibility product added afterward.

  • Curbless entry: matte grey composite stone base with a minimal floor transition.
  • Waterproof walls: FIBO Classic White Subway panels custom fitted to the existing barrel ceiling.
  • Functional storage: modern matte black shelves positioned inside the shower.
  • Flexible showering: handheld and rain-shower fixtures for everyday comfort.
  • Support features: seating and properly placed grab bars incorporated into the design.
  • Finished enclosure: semi-frameless glass with matte black hardware

Grout-Free FIBO Walls

Large-format waterproof panels provide a finished wall design without the grout cleaning and maintenance associated with tiled joints.

MS Polymer-Sealed Joints

FIBO panel joints use MS polymer sealant rather than silicone, creating a waterproof connection designed as part of the complete wall system.

Low-Entry or Curbless Bases

The appropriate entry depends on the floor structure, drain location, available depth and the level of access the homeowner wants.

Choose comfort features without sacrificing the finished appearance.

Understand the Room Before Removing It

A Remodeling Plan Built Around Your Existing Powell Bathroom

The age of a bathroom does not tell us everything about how it was built. Original materials, previous updates, foundation type and plumbing locations all help determine the right preparation and installation plan.

The in-home evaluation establishes the starting point

Established homes around Highland Terrace, Oak Grove and the neighborhoods near Powell High School can have different bathroom layouts and construction conditions. We evaluate the room in person before defining what the project requires.

  • Shower, bathtub and room measurements
  • Crawlspace or slab construction
  • Visible moisture, movement or soft areas
  • Drain, valve and plumbing locations

Evaluate the Bathroom

We review the existing tub or shower, surrounding floor, plumbing locations, entry needs and the improvements you want from the room.

Make the Selections

The shower base, wall design, fixtures, storage, glass and any related bathroom work are selected before the final scope is prepared.

Protect and Prepare

Travel paths are protected before removal. Once the existing materials are removed, the exposed area is evaluated and prepared for the new installation.

Install and Complete

Our employee team installs the defined shower and bathroom components, cleans the work area and completes a final walkthrough with you.

Careful preparation creates a cleaner, more dependable installation.

After the old tub or shower is removed, our team prepares the space for the selected base, waterproof walls, plumbing fixtures, storage and glass. Each component is installed as part of one coordinated shower system.

What Homeowners Say About Our Shower and Bathroom Work

Homeowners describe clear guidance, careful work, respectful protection of the home and bathroom improvements that delivered the finished result they expected.

Debra Brownstone

★★★★★

Dedicated people who were committed to producing a great product in a timely manner. They were detailed and organized, communicated well, and answered a lot of questions while helping with decisions throughout the process. We couldn’t be happier with the results of our bathroom addition.

Lynda McEwan

Local Guide

★★★★★

They did an excellent job—professional, yet very friendly. My shower has nice firm walls and floors, not acrylic. I recommend them for all jobs—big or small.

Rocky Elrod

★★★★★

Knoxville Tub and Shower was by far the best of all the bathfitters I quoted. On time for the quote and the installation with great communication. Pricing was lower and the product was better than the others. What I liked most: the person who quoted the job was the same person who did the install. The quality of the installation and product was excellent—highly recommend over the big providers.

John Wilson

★★★★★

I had some estimates that were cheaper, but they didn’t explain things. He walked us through details, answered every question, and wasn’t a hard sales pitch. I thought he was a salesman—but he also does the installation. On time, started and completed on schedule, used drop cloths throughout the house, and cleaned up after. Very personable and professional. We’re going to have him do our other bathroom as well. Highly recommend.

Project Fit, Investment and Timing

What Determines the Scope of a Powell Bathroom Project?

The proposal should reflect the bathroom you have and the result you want. Size, selections and the amount of the room being updated determine the project more accurately than a generic package price.

The Size and Layout

Shower dimensions, drain and valve locations, base requirements and the amount of space being reconfigured establish the starting scope.

The Finished Selections

Wall design, plumbing fixtures, recessed storage, seating, support features and the type of glass determine how the shower is equipped.

How Much of the Room Changes

A shower-only project has a different scope from one that also includes flooring, a vanity, lighting or other coordinated bathroom improvements.

Focused Shower Project

When replacing the wet area solves the problem

Shower remodeling may be the right fit when the existing vanity, flooring and bathroom layout still work well. The project can remain centered on entry, waterproof walls, the base, fixtures, storage and glass.

Explore Shower Remodeling

Broader Bathroom Project

When the surrounding room also feels outdated

Bathroom remodeling may be the better fit when replacing the shower alone would leave worn flooring, an outdated vanity, poor lighting or other mismatched finishes unchanged.

Explore Bathroom Remodeling

A defined scope creates a useful proposal and realistic schedule.

Once the measurements, selections and included work are established, we can provide clear project pricing and an expected installation timeframe based on your Powell bathroom.

Questions From Powell Homeowners

Powell Shower and Bathroom Remodeling FAQs

Clear answers about shower installation, tub-to-shower conversions, walk-in showers, bathtub replacement and planning the right scope for your Powell bathroom.

What is the difference between shower installation, replacement and remodeling?

Shower installation is the broad term for installing a new shower system. Shower replacement usually means removing an existing shower and installing a new one in the same general location. Shower remodeling may include changes to the footprint, entry, plumbing, storage or surrounding bathroom. Our shower remodeling options explain what can be included.

Can a standard bathtub be converted into a walk-in shower?

Yes. A standard tub-and-shower combination can usually be removed and replaced with a shower designed around the existing alcove. The new system can include a lower-entry base, waterproof walls, recessed storage, updated fixtures and an appropriate glass enclosure. Learn more about our tub-to-shower conversions .

Can an oversized garden or jetted tub be replaced with a larger shower?

In many Powell bathrooms, yes. A larger bathtub footprint may provide room for a more spacious shower base, additional storage, seating or a more open glass configuration. The final design depends on the available footprint, plumbing locations and how the surrounding bathroom will be finished.

Can an aging fiberglass tub or shower be completely removed?

Yes. A yellowed, scratched, cracked or difficult-to-clean fiberglass unit can be removed instead of covered. The space can then be prepared for a stable shower base, waterproof wall system, new fixtures, useful storage and coordinated glass.

How do FIBO shower walls compare with molded acrylic surrounds?

Molded acrylic surrounds are easy to clean but generally provide fewer design and fitting options and can scratch. FIBO uses large-format waterproof panels available in marble, stone, concrete, subway and contemporary designs. The result is a grout-free shower with a more substantial finished appearance. FIBO panel joints use MS polymer sealant rather than silicone. You can explore FIBO shower styles and design options .

What is the difference between a low-entry and curbless shower?

A low-entry shower has a reduced threshold that is easier to step over than a bathtub wall or conventional shower curb. A curbless shower reduces the transition to approximately one inch or less between the bathroom floor and shower. The appropriate option depends on the floor structure, drain location, available depth and desired level of access.

Can a walk-in shower include seating, grab bars and storage?

Yes. A walk-in shower can include built-in or fold-away seating, properly placed grab bars, reinforced preparation for future grab bars, recessed storage, handheld fixtures and slip-resistant base options. These features can be coordinated with the wall design and glass so the shower remains residential and attractive.

Should I keep a bathtub in a family or guest bathroom?

Keeping a bathtub may make sense for children, guests or personal preference. Many homeowners convert the tub in the primary bathroom while retaining or replacing one in a secondary bathroom. Our bathtub replacement options can help preserve a practical bathing space where it remains useful.

How long does a Powell shower or bathroom project take?

Timing depends on the project dimensions, selected materials, glass, preparation and whether the work extends beyond the shower. A focused shower replacement or tub-to-shower conversion generally takes less time than a project that also includes flooring, a vanity, lighting or broader bathroom improvements. We provide a realistic timeframe after the scope is defined.

What affects the cost of a Powell shower or bathroom remodel?

Cost is influenced by the shower dimensions, base style, wall system, fixtures, storage, seating, glass and any work included outside the wet area. Because those choices can change the project substantially, the proposal is based on the actual bathroom and selected scope rather than a generic package price.

How do I receive a proposal for my Powell bathroom?

Start by calling 865-247-5504 or requesting an in-home bathroom consultation . An experienced project manager will evaluate the room, discuss what you want to improve, review suitable options and define the scope before providing a proposal.
