        "text": "A tub-to-shower conversion replaces an existing high-sided bathtub with a walk-in or roll-in shower. A standard conversion typically installs a low-profile curb that still requires stepping up an inch or two, making it ideal for general aging-in-place. A zero-threshold shower eliminates the curb entirely, creating a flush transition with the bathroom floor. While zero-threshold designs provide seamless wheelchair roll-in access, they require specialized subfloor preparation and sloped drainage to ensure water does not spill into the main bathroom area.",
