What decides your price
Two Florence walk-in showers rarely cost the same.
- The size of the shower and whether the walls move
- Tile (porcelain or natural stone) or acrylic walls
- The glass: none, framed or frameless
- A low curb or curbless entry, which depends on the slab
- A niche, a bench, a second shower head
- Whether the drain has to move
At the free visit we measure, go through each of these with you, and the written price says what you chose.
Florence homes
What a walk-in shower in Florence usually involves.
Florence holds two very different kinds of housing: the Del Webb homes of Sun City Anthem at Merrill Ranch, built from 2006 on along Hunt Highway, and the adobe and brick houses of one of Arizona's oldest towns.
Curbed showers in Del Webb plans
Sun City Anthem homes were designed for retirees, yet many showers still have a curb and a glass door with a narrow opening. As owners age, that curb becomes the problem. Rebuilding the shower floor for a low or curbless entry, with a bench and a handheld sprayer, is the most common request in these homes.
Hard water in both parts of town
Anthem at Merrill Ranch is served by EPCOR, which took over the former Johnson Utilities system in 2021, and the historic town is on the Town of Florence water system. Either way the water is hard. Scale on glass and fixtures is a constant, so frameless glass, light tile and a softener connection make daily cleaning easier.
Where we work in Florence
- Sun City Anthem at Merrill Ranch Del Webb's 55+ community, building since 2006 and planned for about 3,800 homes.
- Anthem Parkside The all-ages side of Anthem at Merrill Ranch, with production homes from the mid-2000s on and its own association and architectural review.
- Florence Historic District The original townsite near Main Street, with adobe and brick homes from the late 1800s through the mid-1900s.
The Town of Florence issues permits. Both Anthem at Merrill Ranch and the historic townsite are inside the Town of Florence, so building permits come from the town's Community Development and Building Safety staff, not from Pinal County, even though the county offices are also in Florence.

Florence questions
Straight answers.
What does a walk-in shower remodel cost in Florence?
Usually $10K–$24K in Florence. The size of the room, the tile, the glass and any plumbing that moves make the difference. After a free in-home visit you get one fixed price in writing within 48 hours, with the warranty on all labor.
How long does it take?
Plan on 4–6 days on site. You get the schedule in writing with the price, before work starts.
My Sun City Anthem home already has a walk-in shower. Can it be made safer?
Yes. The usual changes are removing or lowering the curb, widening the entry, adding a built-in or fold-down seat, a handheld sprayer on a slide bar and grab bars on solid backing. Slip-resistant floor tile and a pressure-balancing valve help as well. Often the shower footprint stays the same and only the floor and walls are rebuilt.
What is different about remodeling a bathroom in a historic Florence home?
Expect older plumbing, floors that are not level and thick masonry walls. Drain lines may be cast iron or clay and often need replacing where they are exposed. Adobe walls should stay dry, so new wet walls are usually framed inside them. If the work touches the outside of the house, the town's historic design review applies.
Does a walk-in shower need a door?
Not always. A shower that is deep enough, with the head aimed at the back or side wall, can work with a fixed panel and an open entry. Smaller showers need a door to keep the room dry. An open design is also cooler in winter, since warm air escapes, which some people notice on cold desert mornings.
How is hard water handled on glass and tile?
By choosing surfaces that shed minerals and by wiping them down. Valley tap water leaves white scale as it dries. Frameless glass with a factory-applied protective coating, porcelain instead of porous stone, and fewer metal tracks all reduce buildup. A squeegee after each shower does more than any cleaner. A whole-house softener, where one exists, helps as well.
