The central feature of any bathroom is the bathtub. Your tub offers you a place to relax and unwind. However, your bathtub is much more than an item to run and collect water. Updating and upgrading your bathtub can create a more comfortable and aesthetically pleasing space. You have a lot of options when it comes to shape, size, style, and features for your bathtub. Here are a few things to consider for your tub as you plan your bathroom renovation.

Freestanding Bathtubs

Freestanding tubs offer a classic, distinct, and unique look for your bathroom. This type of tub style can be placed anywhere in your bathroom, so you are no longer limited to placement based on wall locations. freestanding tub will immediately become the focal point of the space. Adding a light directly above the tub, with dimming functionality, can also really enhance the comfort and atmosphere. 



Soaker Bathtubs

If you enjoy wrapping up the day soaking in a hot, deep bath, then a soaker tub is perfect. This type of tub is designed to provide a deeper bath without the risk of overflowing. Soaker tubs complement a contemporary bathroom design and can also offer therapeutic features such as heated backs to keep your water warm. 


Shower and Bathtub Combinations

Shower and bathtub combinations are ideal for smaller bathrooms where space is limited. If you are planning to remodel a guest bathroom, integrating a shower with the tub can offer additional versatility. Other features can be included in this set up like a rail, seat, various shower heads, and more. 


Bathtub Materials

One of the quickest ways to put your own personal touch on your bathroom is to use distinct and unique materials. Colors, textures, and other aesthetic elements can all be customized and crafted to meet your tastes. Fiberglass, acrylic, and plastic are the most common materials found in bathrooms and specifically for bathtubs. Your designer can recommend alternative material choices to enhance the overall look and feel of your bathroom.


If your bathroom is due for an update, keep your tub choices open. The expert design team at Acadian House Design + Renovation has been helping Baton Rouge area homeowners for over 40 years.
