We install all types of bathtubs including freestanding tubs, alcove tubs, drop-in tubs, corner tubs, whirlpool and jetted tubs, clawfoot tubs, and walk-in bathtubs. Our installation services include removing your old tub, updating plumbing connections, preparing the installation area, installing the new tub with proper support and waterproofing, connecting all plumbing fixtures, and completing surrounding tile work or wall panels as needed.

Choosing the Right Bathtub

Selecting the right bathtub depends on your bathroom size, layout, style preferences, and how you plan to use it. Freestanding tubs make a dramatic statement and work well in spacious master bathrooms. Alcove tubs are the most common and space-efficient option for standard bathrooms. Drop-in tubs offer flexibility in design and can be surrounded by custom tile or stone. Corner tubs maximize space in smaller bathrooms while providing a luxurious soaking experience.

For those seeking therapeutic benefits, whirlpool and jetted tubs provide massage and relaxation features. Walk-in bathtubs are ideal for seniors or anyone with mobility concerns, offering safe, easy access with built-in seating. Our team helps you evaluate your options and select the perfect bathtub that fits your needs, space, and budget.

Professional Installation Process

Proper bathtub installation is critical for preventing leaks, ensuring stability, and maximizing the lifespan of your investment. Build Dog Construction follows industry best practices for every installation. We carefully remove your existing tub, inspect and update plumbing as needed, prepare the subfloor and walls, install proper support structures, position and level the new tub precisely, make all plumbing connections, apply waterproofing, and complete any necessary tile or finishing work.

Our licensed plumbers ensure all connections meet code requirements and function properly. We test for leaks and proper drainage before completing the project. The installation timeline varies depending on the tub type and scope of work, but most bathtub installations are completed within 2-4 days. We maintain a clean work site and protect your home throughout the process.
