For Sweetwater homeowners
A shower that works better in your current bathroom
Sweetwater is a tight-knit, predominantly Hispanic community near FIU. Homes range from older CBS houses to newer condos. Interior painting and tile work are popular projects in the area.
We focus on smart storage, clear glass, durable tile, and a layout that leaves the rest of the bathroom working as it should.
Same footprint
Keep the tub footprint when that makes sense for the budget and the way you use the room.
Real waterproofing
We prepare the pan, walls, niches, and corners before the finished surface goes in.
Glass and storage
Choose the panel, door, niche, and fixtures that keep the room comfortable and easy to clean.
More comfortable entry
A low curb, seat, grab bars, and handheld shower can be built into the design.
How the conversion works
1. Measure
We review the alcove, entry, drain, walls, and what you want to improve.
2. Protect
We protect the path into the home and plan material and debris staging.
3. Build
We remove the tub, waterproof, install tile, and finish the fixtures.
4. Finish
We measure and install the glass, clean up, and review the result with you.
Questions about your project
How much does a tub-to-shower conversion cost in Sweetwater?
In Sweetwater, a standalone conversion is usually planned between $4,500 and $12,000. The range changes with the shower size, tile, glass, waterproofing, fixtures, and whether the plumbing stays close to its current location. The final number needs bathroom measurements and a look at the existing tub area. Broke & Fixed starts with a price-range form so you can decide whether the project fits before sorting through every material choice.
How long does the project take in Sweetwater?
A tiled same-footprint conversion usually takes five to eight working days in Sweetwater. The work includes protection, demolition, tub removal, preparation, waterproofing, tile, grout, fixtures, and glass. A complex pattern, hidden damage, drain change, or custom glass can add time. Before work starts, you receive a schedule that shows when the shower will be out of service and when it can be used again.
Can you replace only the tub area in my Sweetwater bathroom?
Yes. Many conversions focus on the tub area and leave the vanity, toilet, and rest of the room in place. That works when the bathroom floor, walls outside the wet area, and existing fixtures are still in good condition. We review the space, talk through entry, storage, seating, tile, and glass, then define the scope. If the rest of the bathroom also needs work, you can compare a focused conversion with a larger remodel instead of guessing which path makes more sense.
