Installing a walk in tub involves plumbing and possibly electrical work, along with securing the tub to the floor and walls. It’s highly recommended to hire professionals for this task to ensure everything is up to code and the tub is installed safely and leak-free. Installation costs can range from $700 to $3,000.

Professional installation of a walk in tub ensures that all plumbing and electrical connections are properly secured and that the tub is installed without leaks. This is crucial for long-term safety and functionality. DIY installation is not recommended due to the complexity of the task, especially when modifications are needed for plumbing or flooring.
