        "text": "Converting a bathtub to a walk-in shower generally takes between three to seven working days, depending on the scope of the project. A standard conversion using a prefabricated shower pan and surround installs faster, whereas a custom tiled shower requires additional days for proper framing, waterproofing, mortar bed curing, and precision tile and grout setting. Unforeseen issues discovered after tub removal—such as hidden water damage in the subfloor or drywall—can also extend the schedule. Working with a hands-on general contractor who directly manages framing, drywall, and tile ensures each trade step transitions smoothly without unnecessary downtime.",
