Every shower is custom-built for your home using products from The Onyx Collection, heavy glass enclosures, and premium fixtures designed to provide decades of reliable performance.
Whether you’re planning for accessibility, replacing an aging fiberglass shower, or updating your home’s appearance, our team focuses on creating bathrooms that are attractive, practical, and built to last.
Why More Manlius Homeowners Are Choosing Walk-In Showers
Walk-in showers have become one of the most requested remodeling projects we complete throughout Manlius.
Many homes in the area were built with fiberglass shower units, garden tubs, or shower/tub combinations that no longer match how homeowners use their bathrooms today. Others have reached the point where grout, caulking, and repeated maintenance simply become frustrating.
A professionally designed walk-in shower offers:
- Easier cleaning
- More usable space
- Low-threshold accessibility
- Modern appearance
- Improved daily comfort
- Excellent long-term durability
For many homeowners, replacing the shower becomes the single biggest improvement they make to their bathroom.
Common Shower Problems We See in Manlius Homes
Every community has its own housing styles.
In Manlius, we frequently work in older Colonials, ranch homes, split-levels, and custom homes where bathrooms were built decades ago and have received only cosmetic updates over the years.
Common issues include:
- Fiberglass shower surrounds that have yellowed or become scratched
- Small shower stalls that feel cramped
- Failing shower pans
- Moldy grout joints
- Water damage around shower doors
- Large garden tubs that are rarely used and take up valuable floor space
Many of these bathrooms can be modernized without completely rebuilding the room.
Why We Don’t Install Acrylic Showers
One of the biggest decisions homeowners face is choosing the material.
While many companies install acrylic systems, Bath Pros specializes in custom showers built with The Onyx Collection.
Unlike prefabricated acrylic units, Onyx showers are manufactured specifically for each project and offer:
- Custom sizing
- Integrated accessories
- Solid surface construction
- Repairable finish
- Extensive color selection
- Matching shower bases, niches, benches, trim, and accessories
The result is a shower designed specifically for your bathroom instead of making your bathroom fit a standard product.
Built Around Your Bathroom — Not Standard Sizes
Every walk-in shower we install is custom measured.
Whether your bathroom requires:
- an oversized shower,
- an unusually shallow footprint,
- a low-threshold entry,
- custom niches,
- corner shelving,
- integrated seating,
- or heavy frameless glass,
our installation is designed around your home—not the other way around.
Tub-to-Shower Conversions in Manlius
One of our most common remodeling projects is converting an existing bathtub into a spacious walk-in shower.
Many homeowners tell us they haven’t used their bathtub in years.
Replacing it with a custom shower often provides:
- More comfortable daily use
- Improved accessibility
- Additional storage
- A more open bathroom layout
When appropriate, we also help homeowners evaluate whether keeping at least one bathtub elsewhere in the home makes sense for future resale.

What to Expect During Your Walk-In Shower Remodel
A successful bathroom remodel starts long before demolition begins. At Bath Pros, every walk-in shower is carefully planned, custom measured, and built specifically for your home. While every project is unique, here’s what you can generally expect throughout the process.
1. In-Home Consultation
Every project begins with a free consultation in your home. We’ll discuss your goals, evaluate your existing bathroom, take preliminary measurements, and answer any questions you have about layout, accessibility, materials, and product options.
You’ll have the opportunity to explore samples from The Onyx Collection, compare fixtures and hardware finishes, and review examples of projects we’ve completed throughout Central New York.
2. Design & Proposal
Once we understand your vision, we’ll develop a detailed proposal outlining exactly what is included in your project.
Unlike estimates that leave room for interpretation, our proposals clearly describe the products, materials, dimensions, fixtures, accessories, and scope of work so you know exactly what to expect before construction begins.
3. Final Measurements & Product Ordering
After your project is scheduled, we’ll return to verify all measurements before manufacturing begins.
Because every Onyx Collection shower is custom built for your bathroom, accurate measurements are essential. Once everything has been confirmed, your shower walls, base, accessories, and glass components are ordered specifically for your project.
4. Professional Installation
When installation begins, our team carefully removes your existing shower or bathtub and prepares the space for the new system.
Any necessary framing, plumbing adjustments, drywall repairs, or subfloor preparation are completed before your new shower is installed. Every component is fitted specifically for your bathroom to ensure a clean, professional finish.
5. Finishing Details
After the shower walls, base, fixtures, and glass enclosure have been installed, we complete the final details that bring the project together.
Trim, sealants, hardware, accessories, and finishing touches are carefully installed before the bathroom is thoroughly cleaned and inspected.
6. Final Walkthrough
Before we consider the project complete, we’ll walk through the finished shower with you, answer any remaining questions, and ensure every detail meets your expectations.
Our goal isn’t simply to complete another installation—it’s to leave you with a walk-in shower you’ll enjoy using for many years to come.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a walk-in shower cost in Manlius?
The cost of a custom walk-in shower depends on the size of the shower, the materials selected, plumbing requirements, glass enclosure, and any additional features such as recessed niches, benches, or accessibility upgrades.
Most of the walk-in shower projects we complete throughout Manlius typically range from $12,000 to $20,000, although larger or more complex projects can exceed that range. During your free consultation, we’ll provide a detailed proposal based on your specific bathroom and design goals.
How long does a walk-in shower installation take?
Most walk-in shower installations are completed within three to five working days, depending on the complexity of the project.
Projects that involve relocating plumbing, removing a bathtub, repairing water damage, or making structural changes may require additional time. Before construction begins, we’ll review the anticipated timeline so you know exactly what to expect.
Do you only install showers, or can you remodel the entire bathroom?
While many homeowners contact us for a shower replacement, Bath Pros also completes complete bathroom remodeling projects.
Whether you’re replacing a shower, installing a new vanity, updating flooring, or renovating the entire bathroom, we can design a project that fits your home and budget.
Can you replace my bathtub with a walk-in shower?
Yes. Tub-to-shower conversions are one of our most requested remodeling services.
Many homeowners no longer use their existing bathtub and choose to replace it with a spacious walk-in shower that’s easier to enter, easier to clean, and more comfortable to use every day.
Why do you install The Onyx Collection instead of acrylic showers?
Bath Pros specializes in custom walk-in showers built with products from The Onyx Collection because they offer greater design flexibility, custom sizing, integrated accessories, and a durable solid-surface construction.
Unlike many prefabricated acrylic systems, each Onyx shower is manufactured specifically for your bathroom, allowing us to create a custom installation rather than fitting your bathroom around standard-sized components.
Can you build an accessible or low-threshold shower?
Absolutely.
Many homeowners choose a low-threshold or barrier-free walk-in shower to improve accessibility while maintaining a clean, modern appearance. We can also incorporate grab bars, built-in seating, handheld shower systems, and other accessibility features based on your individual needs.
Will a walk-in shower increase my home’s value?
A professionally designed walk-in shower is one of the most desirable bathroom upgrades for many buyers, particularly in primary bathrooms.
While every home and market is different, replacing an outdated shower with a modern, low-maintenance walk-in shower often improves both daily enjoyment and overall market appeal.
