Where can I get a shower to replace a tub in a very small bathroom?

Local home stores mostly carry larger sized (60x36) items or enclosed corner or neo-angled. We are in our 80's, still get around well, but cannot use a tub anymore. Looking for maybe a 48" or 46"L X 32 deep.

You can contact a local plumbing business. They have catalogs with different size tubs and walk in showers that you can order from them and they will install for you. There are many selections and varying prices so you can find one to fit your budget. If you are replacing your tub you may want to consider a walk in shower instead. We are remodeling our bathroom and that is what we will do. If you look at this website you can see various choices: www.aquabath.com. This is the company my plumber uses and some items are very expensive and some are very budget friendly. Your local plumbing business will be happy to show you what's available in your area.
I went on line to look for "smaller shower pans" and found a 48x38 at Home Depot...has a single threshold. 194.88. If it is not in stock, ask if they can order it in for you to pick up!

You can find the pans but you will most likely have to tile the walls.
I know. The pans are easy to find. And since the bathroom is only used by my husband and me, I really don't intend to tile any walls.
Thank you, though!
Home stores like Lowes have catalogs where you can custom order things.
