Your free in home consultation gives you an exact, personal price, accurate to the penny, and the price American Shower Company writes down is the price you pay.
If you are planning a bathtub replacement in Appleton, WI, start with the choices that matter most: which system fits your style and budget, how the space should work for the people who use it, and what is behind the old walls. Below is how we look at homes here, what goes into the price, and how the job runs from the consultation through cleanup.
Appleton is home base for American Shower Company, so a free in home consultation here is a short drive. Most Appleton calls are a same footprint shower or tub replacement in a prewar or postwar house where the hall bath serves the whole family, which is why a one day install matters here.
American Shower Company measures your project and gives you a clear written estimate at no cost.
We are a local shower and bath replacement company and we stand behind every job. You are not handed off to a subcontractor. Every job follows the same disciplined process:
Old bathtubs give out in predictable ways. Fiberglass can flex and crack, and enameled steel chips and then rusts at the chip. A Samuel Mueller alcove tub is solid stone like material with a seamless nonporous finish that resists staining and mildew, and it is built for the standard three wall alcove most homes already have. Pair it with Samuel Mueller solid surface walls or a BathWraps® acrylic surround, depending on the look and budget you want. Our installers can usually finish in one visit.
American Shower Company works across the Appleton area, including:
Recent shower and bath installs our own employed installers completed near Appleton, listed nearest town first. The towns and months come straight from the crew's own job photos, so every line is a real home our team worked in. Two of these were bathtub projects.
Samuel Mueller says so. Its tubs are made from a solid stone like material, and the manufacturer states that the material holds water temperature longer for a more relaxing soak and resists chipping and cracking. Your designer can show you the tub and the wall options side by side during the consultation.
Yes. Financing is available through American Shower Company. Interest free plans are available for those who qualify, with no dealer service fees or points added on the back end.
We install Samuel Mueller alcove bathtubs, made from a solid stone like material, and pair them with wall surrounds from either Premium Samuel Mueller Systems or Signature BathWraps® Systems. An alcove tub is designed to sit inside a three wall enclosure, which is the layout in most hall and guest bathrooms, so it uses space efficiently and does not require moving walls.
Our own employees, not subcontractors. They are trained on the systems we install, which is why American Shower Company backs every installation with its workmanship guarantee. Terri R. wrote that her crew was "pleasant, respectful of the property, patient when addressing questions and concerns."
Not with American Shower Company. The price is accurate to the penny, and what we write down is what you pay. If the installers open the wall and find something unexpected, such as a failing drain, they stop and explain it before any added work is done, so you decide.
Most take one day when the new tub fits the existing alcove. Krzysztof O. described an install where the crew hit a problem with the tub on arrival, "went all the way back to get the right one," and "still finished the job before dinner." Jobs that include new plumbing or wall repairs can run longer, and you will know that before work starts.
It depends on the old tub, the wall system and the fixtures you choose, so American Shower Company gives an exact figure at a free in home consultation rather than a guess. Removing a heavy steel or cast iron tub, adding shower fixtures and glass doors, and updating old plumbing all change the scope, and Premium Samuel Mueller Systems and Signature BathWraps® Systems give you options at different budgets. Our Wisconsin shower replacement cost guide explains each factor, and your price is accurate to the penny.
Yes. Most tubs we install also serve as the household shower. We can add a Samuel Mueller valve, a fixed head or handheld, and a sliding glass door so the space works for both quick showers and long soaks. Fixture choices include push button controls in polished chrome, brushed nickel or matte black.
Our office and showroom are at 3984 E. Endeavor Drive, Suite 5, Appleton, WI 54915, and the main line is (920) 241 6575. Hours are Monday through Thursday 8am to 8pm, Friday 8am to 6pm and Saturday 8am to 4pm. A live local person answers the phone rather than a national call center, and free in home consultations are scheduled from this office.
Yes. The work happens inside, so installs run through the winter. The practical concerns on an Appleton winter day are a clear driveway and protecting floors from salt and slush, which the installers handle with tarps from the door to the bathroom.
Less than most of Wisconsin. Appleton draws from Lake Winnebago and lime softens it at the treatment plant, and Wisconsin DNR sample results for Appleton Waterworks show total hardness of 72 to 76 mg/L in July 2020, roughly 4 grains per gallon. Scale still builds on grout and valves over time, which is where a nonporous wall system with no grout lines, Samuel Mueller solid surface or BathWraps® acrylic, and the Samuel Mueller Forever Valve, which the manufacturer says resists calcium buildup, make cleaning easier.
Over 350 installs so far in 2026, from the Fox Valley to Milwaukee and Madison. Here are some of the bathrooms our crew photographed along the way. The map shows towns, not addresses.
