Scrub-a-dub-dub in Your New Bathtub

Although showers allow you to clean off quickly, a bath allows you to relax and rejuvenate while cleaning off at the same time. Showers might provide practicality, but a bathtub can act as a means to reduce stress and grant you with much needed time to yourself. If you are remodeling your bathroom and enjoy bathing you should consider what type of bath would work best. The following bathtubs are options to consider when planning your bathroom remodel.

1. 3-wall alcove. A 3-wall alcove is a standard bathtub that maximizes the use of your space. Typically, a 3-wall alcove is a bathtub with a shower attached to it and is built into an exterior wall.
2. Drop in tub. These tubs are surrounded by the same material that is in your bathroom and are designed in a constructed deck. Usually, a self-rimming edge can be seen atop the mounting surface.
3. Freestanding tub. A free-standing tub is not connected to a wall and can be made out of acrylic, cast iron, copper, bronze, stone, and steel. A free-standing tub creates a modern look and offers a unique style.

There are many different options when it comes to picking a new tub for your bathroom-remodeling project. If you plan on remodeling your bathroom, call Northern Craft Construction today.
