Chamblee sits along the Buford Highway international corridor, minutes from historic downtown Chamblee and Keswick Park, and much of its housing stock is modest post-war ranch homes. Walk into the main bath of one of those homes and you will usually find the same thing: a five-foot alcove tub with a shower head over it, original or close to it, with tile or a surround that has seen better decades. If that describes your bathroom, a tub to shower conversion near Chamblee is the single most useful project you can do in the room.
Tub to Shower Conversions in Chamblee Ranch Homes
Alpine Development Groups LLC is based in Austell, GA, and we serve Chamblee as a bathroom contractor GA homeowners trust for practical, well-built work. A tub to shower conversion starts with removing the old tub and everything around it, then rebuilding the space as a walk-in shower: a properly sloped pan, full waterproofing behind the tile, a low or zero threshold for easy entry, and fixtures placed where they make sense. The result is a shower that is easier to step into, far easier to clean than an old tub, and sized to the full footprint of the alcove instead of cramped inside it.
Many of our Chamblee projects do not stop at the shower. A bathroom renovation in Chamblee often pairs the conversion with a full bathroom remodel of the same room — new vanity, new flooring, updated lighting, and the plumbing and subfloor repairs that a fifty-year-old bath usually needs once you open the walls. Doing it all at once is more efficient than coming back in two years, and it means the whole room matches instead of half of it.
Full Bathroom Remodels Near Downtown Chamblee
As a custom shower installer GA homeowners call for tile work that holds up, we also build custom tile showers from scratch in Chamblee homes — walk-in showers with niches, benches, and tile patterns chosen for the house. Whether it is a conversion or a new custom shower, every shower we build gets the same waterproofed base and careful tile setting, because a shower that leaks is the most expensive kind.
Custom Tile Showers Built to Last
Our small bathroom and powder room remodels serve the other baths in these ranch homes. Chamblee hall baths are compact, and the powder rooms near the living areas tend to be afterthoughts. We rebuild them with right-sized vanities, better light, and finishes that make a small room feel intentional instead of leftover.

Frequently Asked Questions
Who does tub to shower conversions in Chamblee?

We also handle full bathroom remodels, custom tile showers, and small bath updates. Every project starts with a free in-home consultation.
How much does a tub to shower conversion cost in Chamblee?
It depends on the size of the alcove, the tile and fixtures you choose, and what we find when the old tub comes out — older plumbing sometimes needs updating. We do not quote blind numbers. After a free in-home consultation, you get a detailed written estimate with real line items, so you know exactly what the project includes.
Will a walk-in shower fit where my tub is now?
In almost every case, yes. A standard five-foot alcove tub leaves a footprint that converts cleanly into a comfortable walk-in shower. We build a properly sloped pan, waterproof the whole enclosure, and set the threshold low for easy entry. You gain usable space instead of losing it.

Yes, we serve the neighborhoods along the Buford Highway corridor as well as historic downtown Chamblee and the areas around Keswick Park. Modest ranch homes are a big part of our work, and we are used to making practical budgets go a long way in those bathrooms.
