Remove an old, cracked, stained or leaking tub and install a new one, with the surround, faucet and drain done right.
Bathtubs last a long time, but not indefinitely. Cast iron can chip, acrylic can crack, fiberglass can wear through and an enamel finish can dull and stain beyond cleaning. A tub that leaks at the overflow, flexes underfoot or has a damaged surface is worth replacing. Replacement is more involved than it looks, because the tub is tied to the walls, the drain and the floor, and old tubs, especially cast iron, are heavy and awkward to remove. In Nashville, many homes have original tubs from the sixties and seventies, and a replacement often means choosing a style that fits better with the way the family uses the bathroom today.
We measure the alcove and confirm the new tub size and drain position. The old tub and surround are removed carefully, floors and framing are checked, and plumbing is adjusted as needed. A new tub is set on a level, supported base with the correct drain assembly and overflow, then walls are rebuilt with waterproof backer, tile or panels. We install a new faucet and spout, caulk and test the plumbing. We help you choose between acrylic, cast iron, enameled steel and solid surface tubs and explain how each feels and wears.
Tub length, width and drain position must match the alcove and plumbing, and we confirm them before ordering.
Acrylic is lightweight and warm, cast iron is heavy and durable and steel is affordable. We explain the trade-offs.
A level, supported tub does not flex or stress the drain, which prevents leaks.
The surround is rebuilt with proper backer and waterproofing, so the new tub is protected.
