Where installation is available across Niagara
The St. Catharines page covers much of the Niagara Peninsula, on both sides of the Welland Canal. Highway 406 runs south through the middle of the peninsula toward Welland, and Highway 140 continues to Port Colborne on Lake Erie. The QEW carries coverage west along the Lake Ontario shore and east to Niagara Falls. Service is confirmed for each exact address when Imperial Bathrooms reviews the request.
Fort Erie, at the south-eastern corner of the peninsula, is at the edge of this area. Requests from there are checked address by address before an installer is arranged.
A cutout makes sense when you're happy with your tub but not with climbing over it. If you'd also like something to hold on to, ask about the clamp-on Molded Tub Bar when you talk to the installer.
Why modify the tub you already have
No tear-out
The bathtub stays in place. One section of the wall is cut away and a CleanCut insert is fitted and sealed into the opening.
A lower step
Stepping in no longer means lifting your leg over the full height of the tub wall.
Keep the bath if you want it
The CleanCut Convertible has a removable watertight insert, so the tub can still be filled for a bath.

Questions about bathtub cutouts in St. Catharines & Niagara
Who actually does the installation?
Installations are done by independent installers experienced with CleanCut products. They run their own businesses; they are not Imperial Bathrooms employees or branches. Imperial Bathrooms supplies CleanCut products across Canada and matches each request with a suitable installer serving that area.
Can I still take a bath after the modification?
With the CleanCut Convertible, yes. It has a removable watertight insert: take it out for an easier step-in shower, and put it back in when you want to fill the tub for a bath. The Step, Deep Step and Ultra-Low create a permanent step-in opening.
How long does the installation take?
A typical CleanCut installation takes a few hours. Exact timing depends on the tub, the product and the installer's schedule, which your installer can confirm when they quote the job.
How do I measure my tub for a CleanCut kit?
Measure the width of the tub wall across the top rail, then measure the wall width again at the depth listed for each product (for example, 9.75 inches down on the inside for the Step). Compare both numbers with the sizing guide. If your measurements are close to a limit or your tub has an unusual shape, ask before ordering.
Can a retirement residence or care facility use CleanCut?
Yes. Facilities can buy kits for their own qualified maintenance staff to install, or request an independent installer through Imperial Bathrooms.
Is Fort Erie part of the St. Catharines & Niagara service area?
Fort Erie is on this page's community list, at the south-eastern corner of the peninsula, but it sits at the edge of the area. Imperial Bathrooms confirms coverage for each Fort Erie address when it reviews the request, before an independent installer is arranged.
