Bathtub Cut-Throughs

Easier Access Without Replacing the Tub

Love your tub but not the high step? A bathtub cut-through can make getting in and out easier and safer without the cost of a full replacement.

A cut-through creates a lower opening in the side of your existing bathtub, reducing the height you need to step over. For many homeowners, it is a simple way to improve bathroom accessibility while keeping the tub they already have.

What Is a Bathtub Cut-Through?

A bathtub cut-through modifies the side wall of an existing tub to create a lower entry point. The opening is professionally finished to provide a cleaner, easier step into the bathing area.

This can be a good option for homeowners who are planning to age in place, have limited mobility, or simply want easier access to the tub without taking on a larger bathroom renovation.

Make the Bath Even Easier to Use

A cut-through can also be paired with other accessibility features, including:

• Grab bars
• Handheld showerheads
• Bath or shower seating
• Slip-resistant surfaces

These small changes can work together to make everyday bathing more comfortable and manageable.

Cut-Through or Tub-to-Shower Conversion?

A bathtub cut-through may be the right choice if you want to keep your existing tub and simply lower the entry.

If you no longer use the bathtub or want a more open bathing area, a tub-to-shower conversion may be a better fit.

Total Bath Systems can help you compare the options and determine what works best for your bathroom, mobility needs, and long-term plans.

Keep the Tub. Lose the High Step.

You do not always need a full bathroom remodel to make bathing easier.

A bathtub cut-through can provide a more accessible entry while allowing you to keep the tub you already know and use.
