Freestanding Bathtubs

Knowing More About Freestanding Bathtubs

Interested in adding a freestanding bathtub to your home today? Here is a quick overview and summary of what to expect and look for when shopping for a new freestanding tub in 2024.

Why More People Are Choosing Freestanding Tubs in 2024

Freestanding bathtubs are experiencing an uptick in popularity due to their comfortable and unique design and high-quality construction. While it is possible to obtain a high-quality drop-in bathtub, a freestanding bathtub is guaranteed to be made of a durable material, making it a worthwhile investment for your bathroom. Let’s take a look at some of these materials and the benefits they can bring to your space:

Materials

Freestanding tubs are made from various materials, such as acrylic, copper, cast iron, natural stone, stone resin, and wood. When choosing a suitable material, you must balance overall weight, personal tastes, and, most importantly, cost. Acrylic is the most common material, offering plentiful options in design, color, and customizability. However, it is average in categories like heat retention, durability, maintenance, and overall appearance. Cast iron provides excellent heat retention, but its weight may require floor reinforcement. Natural stone is unique and aesthetically pleasing, with excellent heat retention, but it is costly, heavy, and requires significant maintenance.

Stone resin, a newer option, combines luxury and affordability. Unlike natural stone, stone resin is less porous, making it easier to clean and maintain while providing a natural stone look at a fraction of the cost.

Popular Freestanding Bathtub Colors for 2024

These are the most popular colors for freestanding bathtubs in 2024. Black, gray, and white remain popular for their versatility with various themes and aesthetics.

• Gray – A popular color that pairs well with any color scheme, making it a great neutral option.
• Black – Ideal for modern bathrooms, black provides a foundation for building a cohesive aesthetic.
• White – A versatile color that can offer either a modern or classic aesthetic.
