Bathtubs are an important part of your bathroom, but they can quickly turn into a huge sinkhole. The last thing you want to do is buy a new bathtub only for it to end up costing more than you planned on spending.
Read these tips before buying your next bathtub
- know your budget first – make sure the price range you’re considering is within what you’re willing to pay – consider type of tub – consider size of tub- determine whether or not the color will match with any other fixtures in the bathroom.
When it comes to deciding on the cost of a bathtub, there are really three options you can choose from.
The first option is to buy a new tub right off of the shelf. A new bathtub can cost anywhere from $600 – $7000 depending on the brand, style and shape you pick out. The second option is to purchase a used bathtub. Buying a used tub is usually much cheaper than buying one new, but there are some risks involved. Another option is to purchase a tub manufactured to fit within your existing space.
Before you start shopping for a bathtub, you should know what you’re looking for. There are different shapes and sizes of tubs depending on the type of bath you plan on having. Space can also be an issue so make sure that any new tub will fit in your bathroom space.
The next step is to consider the type of bathtub you want. There are three main types: round, rectangular and oval. Rectangular tubs are the most popular, but the shape of your bathroom can determine which one you end up with.
The last step is to consider the color of the tub before you buy it. Although it sounds like a trivial aspect to consider, many people make this mistake. If you plan on buying a white tub, make sure that all of your fixtures are also white, or they will clash badly with each other.
