Popular Bathtub Types
The type of tub you choose significantly impacts the room's aesthetic and complexity of installation.
Roman / Free Standing Tub
A popular choice for modern bathroom remodels and master baths, offering a sculptural centerpiece. Installation requires dedicated floor space and plumbing installed through the floor. This style delivers a luxury, spa-like look.
Clawfoot Tub
An old-world classic that provides an elegant, nostalgic look, best suited for historic home renovations. It is supported by decorative feet, exposing the floor underneath, creating a vintage, classic look.
Skirted (Alcove) Tub
Includes a built-in panel at the front side of the tub, designed to be installed against one or two walls. This is the most common choice for tub/shower combos in standard and secondary bathrooms, offering a clean, standard look.
Drop-In Tub
A basic tub shell installed into a framed structure (a tiled deck and surround). This style is common in most homes and requires custom framing and finishing with tile or stone around the edges, resulting in a traditional, decked look.
Under-mount Tub
An upgrade over the drop-in tub, which creates a clean look by mounting the tub rim under a solid surface countertop (quartz, granite, or stone). It requires meticulous precision and is reserved for high-end luxury bathroom installations, delivering a seamless, high-end look.
Jetted Tubs (Whirlpool)
Tubs equipped with water or air jets. Most clients choose this for therapeutic issues or relaxation. Installation requires specific electrical wiring, pumps, and access panels for maintenance, making them therapeutic and feature-focused.
Soaking Tub
Taller tubs designed for deep, full immersion (like many freestanding models). They can fit a smaller space while still allowing for a deep, comfortable bathing experience, making them comfort-focused.
Bathtub Construction Materials
Your material choice impacts cost, durability, and heat retention (how long the water stays warm).
Acrylic/Fiberglass: The most common and economical choice. Lightweight, durable, and retains heat well.
Stone (Natural or Composite): A luxury selection. Requires regular sealing to keep it looking new. Extremely heavy, often requiring additional reinforcement of flooring and framing at 2nd floor or pier-and-beam installations.
Cast Iron/Porcelain: Heavy and extremely durable. Retains heat exceptionally well, making it a premium choice. The porcelain coating is tough but prone to chipping if severely impacted.
Cultured Marble: An economical choice, but uncommon in modern, high-end bathroom remodels. Prone to cracking and yellowing over a longer period.
Tub Location & Installation Type
The tub's position is dictated by the bathroom's structural layout and design:
Alcove: Installed against three walls, typically with a shower component above it (e.g., a standard skirted tub).
Corner: Installed in a corner, utilizing two walls (e.g., some jetted tubs or drop-ins).
Wall-mount: A freestanding tub that sits against one wall, allowing the faucet/plumbing to come out of the wall instead of the floor.
3 Main Considerations When Selecting Your Bathtub
Homeowners searching for a local remodeling contractor often overlook key functional elements. Here are the three main things VIPS Services helps you consider when selecting a new tub for your full bath remodel:
1. Ease of Access & Accessibility (Aging in Place)
Depth and width are important considerations when determining how easy it will be to enter and exit the tub.
Pain Point: Wet surfaces are slippery. A tub that is too deep or wide can be hazardous for young children or seniors, as stretching to access the tub wall can be a fall risk.
VIPS Solution: If accessibility is a long-term goal, a tub-to-shower conversion may be a safer alternative, or a lower-profile soaking tub can be selected.
2. Maintenance and Cleaning
Most standard tubs require very little maintenance. However, some materials and features are more difficult to clean and maintain:
Stone tubs require regular professional sealing.
Jetted tubs require regular maintenance and cleaning of the jets and internal tubing to prevent the build-up of stagnant water, mold, and mildew within the pumps.
3. Durability and Longevity
Most clients don’t remodel a bathroom every 2-3 years, so selecting a tub that is durable is always important for long-term value.
Here is a breakdown of tub construction types along with the durability and longevity details of each:
Cast Iron / Porcelain Tubs
Extremely durable, but the porcelain surface is prone to chipping. Over a longer term, these tubs can also rust, usually around the drain or overflow area.
Acrylic Tubs
A popular choice for most modern baths due to its resilience. Cracking is uncommon, and minor surface scratches can often be repaired.
Stone Tubs
Highly durable, provided they are regularly sealed and properly installed with adequate structural floor support.
Cultured Marble
Prone to cracking and yellowing over a longer period, making it a poor choice for a long-term, high-end bathroom renovation.

Every remodeling company promises quality materials and skilled installation—and frankly, delivering a good finished product is the easier part of the job. But what happens during the months-long process? If you’ve heard horror stories from other homeowners, you know that a great result can often come with frustrating delays due to improper planning, poor communication, and a lack of respect for your home.

The Right Team & Process: We maintain a dedicated team of professionals who are also trained in our strict standards of communication, punctuality, and job site cleanliness. Your team includes a dedicated Project Planner (getting all the ducks in a row), a Project Scheduler (that schedules every trade to eliminate large gaps in your timeline), and a Project Manager (that will review everything before we start at your critital VIPS Pre-Construction Meeting)
Clear, Consistent Communication: We keep you informed at every milestone. You will always know what to expect next, who will be in your home, and when the project is on track for completion.
We know delivering a high-quality finished product is important, but we believe the process and experience you have while we get there is just as important.
