Bathtub Replacement in Austin, TX

Replacing a bath sounds like a swap and often is not. Whether the job stays simple depends on what is behind the tiles: the condition of the substrate, whether the waste can stay where it is, and how the existing tub was fitted. We look at that before quoting, because the difference between a straight replacement and opening up the wall is most of the cost.

Replacing the Tub, or Removing It Altogether

A like-for-like replacement in the same footprint is the contained version of this job. Changing size, moving the waste, or removing the tub in favour of a shower turns it into a bigger piece of work involving the floor and often the wall. Both are routine — but they are not the same price, and you should know which you are buying before work starts.

Bathroom Services We Handle In-House

Bathtub Replacements

Swapping a tub like-for-like, or removing one entirely — we tell you which the plumbing actually allows.

Shower Installations

Walk-in showers, frameless glass and low-threshold trays, waterproofed properly before any tile goes on.

Tub-to-Shower Conversions

Converting an unused tub into a shower, including what changes when the drain has to move.

Countertop Installation

Quartz, granite and solid surface vanity tops, templated to the units actually installed.

Sink & Faucet Installation

Basins, vanities and taps fitted with the supply and waste work done to standard, not bodged.

Tile & Waterproofing

The stage nobody sees and everything depends on — substrate, membrane, then tile.

Ventilation & Extraction

Extraction sized for the room so moisture leaves instead of settling in the plaster and grout.

Storage & Cabinetry

Vanity storage and built-ins planned around a small footprint rather than squeezed in afterwards.

Accessible Bathrooms

Curbless entries, wider doorways and grab-rail blocking built in while the walls are open.

Why the Wall Matters More Than the Tub

Most bathtub problems we are called to fix are not the tub. They are what was behind it: a substrate that was never waterproofed, tile bedded straight onto plasterboard, or a waste that has been leaking quietly for years. We open up, look, and tell you what is actually there before committing to a price.

What a Straight Swap Involves

Removing the old tub, checking and repairing the substrate, waterproofing correctly, then setting and sealing the new one. Where tile has to be cut back, we plan the tile line so the repair does not read as a patch. Where the tub is the only bathing space in the house, we sequence the work to keep downtime as short as it realistically can be.

Freestanding, Alcove and Soaking Tubs

Freestanding tubs look best with space around them and need floor structure and plumbing planned for. Alcove tubs are the practical choice in a standard bathroom and far simpler to replace. Deep soaking tubs are heavier when full than people expect, which matters on an upper floor.
