Tub-to-Shower Conversion for Indian Rocks Beach Homes
Most Indian Rocks Beach homes share walls. About 64.1% of the city's housing units are in buildings with two or more units, and only about a quarter are detached single-family houses[1]. The typical bathroom has a tub with a shower over it, and many owners would rather have a shower that is easy to step into.
A conversion removes the tub and builds a shower in the same space. In a condo, the plumbing is often tied into a shared stack, so the drain location matters and the association needs to see the plan.
Condo Rules and the Flood Threshold
For condominiums and townhomes in unincorporated Pinellas, the County applies its 49% threshold per building, not per unit, and the association allocates the allowed dollar amount among owners, with a one-year rolling period in the County's example[2]. That County page is written for unincorporated areas, so confirm with your association and the city how the limit is handled for your Indian Rocks Beach building.
The city's pre-approval form comes before the County permit[3], and the permit itself is issued by Pinellas County[4].

Does my condo association need to approve a tub conversion?
Almost always for plumbing work. We provide the plan and permit details the board asks for.
Is the 49% limit for my unit or my building?
In unincorporated Pinellas, the County applies it per building[2]. Ask your association how it is handled for your IRB building.
How long does a conversion take?
About a week or two, plus permit and inspection timing.
Can I convert a tub in a duplex I rent out?
Yes. We schedule around tenants or bookings.
Can the drain be moved in a condo?
Sometimes only a short distance, because it ties into a shared line below the floor. We design the shower around where the drain can realistically go.
