American Shower Company builds low threshold walk in showers in Appleton, WI with Premium Samuel Mueller Systems and Signature BathWraps® Systems, with grab bars and seating where you need them, professionally installed by our own employees, often in one day, with over 350 installs completed so far in 2026. Every shower is backed by our Lifetime Warranty and Workmanship Guarantee, and your in home price is exact, accurate to the penny.
A walk in shower is priced around the person who will use it. How low the entry sits, how wide the opening is, where the grab bars go, whether a fold down seat and handheld are needed, and what the shower replaces all shape the scope. Premium Samuel Mueller Systems and Signature BathWraps® Systems both offer low and barrier free entries for different budgets. Our Wisconsin shower replacement cost guide explains how each factor moves a project.
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 walk in shower 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:
Aging in place starts in the bathroom because that is where the risk is. An accessible walk in shower from American Shower Company pairs a low or zero entry with a fold down seat, grab bars, a handheld shower and a slip resistant floor, in either Samuel Mueller solid surface or BathWraps® acrylic. Nothing on the walls needs sealing. Mike L. noted his project manager handled a reschedule "due to a late season snowstorm that paralyzed the whole state," and the crew still delivered a job he called superb.
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. Each of these was a walk in shower project.
Samuel Mueller states that its shower floors are the most slip resistant flooring on the market, and the textured solid surface is designed to keep grip when wet. We pair it with grab bars and, where helpful, a seat, because no floor alone prevents every slip.
Yes. Financing is available, including interest free plans for those who qualify, so a safety upgrade does not have to wait.
Many are installed in one day when the shower goes into the old tub or shower footprint. A no threshold entry, a moved drain or repairs found behind the old walls can add time, and your written price says so up front. Tracey F. noted her crew "double checked with me everything that the salesman and I had discussed" before starting, and finished in less than a day.
Yes, and it is one of the most common projects in older bathrooms. Becca K. wrote that her crew removed "a whirlpool from the 80s" and replaced it "with a walk in shower" in "a full 12 hour day." Larger tubs take more removal and wall work, and your designer explains that scope before anything is scheduled.
Because they are common and they get worse with age. The CDC counted an estimated 234,094 nonfatal bathroom injuries treated in emergency departments in 2008 among people 15 and older, and 81.1 percent were falls. The same report found injury rates rose with age (MMWR, June 10, 2011). A low entry, grab bars, a seat and a grip floor target those falls.
Usually. Samuel Mueller bases are trimmable and BathWraps® makes custom bases from 30 to 84 inches, so most walk in showers go into the space an old tub or shower already occupies. The vanity, toilet and flooring stay in place, which keeps the job to about a day in many homes.
A low threshold shower keeps a very small lip at the entry, enough to hold water in but easy to step over. A no threshold shower is level with the bathroom floor so a walker or a wheelchair can come straight in, which takes more work on the floor and drain. Samuel Mueller makes both, BathWraps® offers barrier free and Easy Step bases, and we recommend one after measuring.
Our own trained employees install every shower, not subcontractors. It is covered by our Lifetime Warranty and Workmanship Guarantee: the lifetime product warranty comes from the manufacturer, Samuel Mueller or BathWraps®, and American Shower Company backs its installation with its workmanship guarantee. Kathy R. wrote that her crew "could not have been any more professional or courteous."

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.
