“That old garden tub was just collecting dust. They converted it to a walk-in shower with a bench and grab bars in under two weeks. My knees thank them every morning. Great crew, honest pricing.”

Soaking, Freestanding & Alcove
Out With the Old Tub, In With One You'll Love
Every bathtub replacement includes fresh surrounds, new drains, and updated fixtures. Most replacements finish in under a week. Call (404) 232-3742 for a free estimate.
Atlanta's bathtubs tell the history of the house. Avocado and harvest-gold steel tubs in 1970s Brookhaven ranches. Stained fiberglass garden tubs with dead jets in 1990s Alpharetta masters. Chipped cast-iron alcove tubs in Decatur bungalows whose enamel gave up a decade ago. They share three traits: nobody enjoys them, they drag down the whole bathroom, and replacing them transforms the room out of proportion to the cost.
Bathtub replacement is a focused project with outsized impact. We disconnect and remove the old tub — no small feat with a 300-pound cast-iron unit in a second-floor bath — inspect the drain, subfloor, and wall conditions it hid, then set the new tub level and solid, connect fresh plumbing, and finish the surround with tile, solid-surface panels, or a clean new enclosure. The bathroom keeps its layout; everything about the bathing experience changes.
Your choice of tub defines the result. Deep soaking tubs (including modern alcove soakers that fit the classic 60-inch footprint) give you genuine immersion without a renovation. Freestanding tubs — the sculptural centerpieces of today's luxury Atlanta master baths — turn the tub into the room's focal point. And quality modern alcove tubs with tile surrounds are the practical family choice: durable, easy to clean, and kind to budgets.
There is also the repair question we hear constantly: can my tub be refinished instead? Honest answer — refinishing is a cosmetic Band-Aid. It peels, it stains again, and it does nothing for a failing drain, rotted surround, or a tub shape you hate. If the tub is 15+ years old or you dislike using it, replacement costs less over time than repeated refinishing and delivers a genuinely better bathroom.
Most bathtub replacements take 3 to 6 working days. If you have been avoiding baths because of that old tub, call (404) 232-3742 — we will show you what a great tub feels like in your own bathroom, with a written price before we start.

Why Replace the Tub
Why Atlanta Homeowners Replace Their Bathtubs
From daily enjoyment to resale — what a new tub delivers.
- Baths you will actually take
A deep, comfortable soaking tub turns bath time from a chore into a ritual — the number-one reason our clients say they replaced. - Ends chips, stains, and rust
No more bleach-scrubbing a tub that never looks clean. New acrylic, cast iron, or solid-surface tubs wipe clean and stay bright. - A centerpiece for the bathroom
A freestanding tub instantly elevates a master bath — it is the single fixture buyers photograph and remember. - Fixes slow drains and bad valves
Replacement includes new drain assemblies and valves, solving the drainage and temperature problems of aging tubs. - Safer entry and exit
Lower-profile modern tubs, plus optional grab bars and handheld wands, make bathing safer without a full remodel. - Cheaper than refinishing over time
One replacement outlasts multiple refinishing jobs — and actually improves the bathroom instead of masking it.

Tub Types & Surrounds
Bathtub Options for Atlanta Homes
Soaking, freestanding, alcove, and walk-in styles — which fits your bathroom and your life.
Bathtubs vary enormously in feel, footprint, and price. Here is our straight-talk guide to the types we install across Atlanta — from practical family tubs to statement centerpieces.
Alcove soaking tubs
The 60-inch alcove footprint fits most Atlanta hall baths. Modern acrylic soakers are deeper than the builder tubs they replace — real immersion depth — while staying affordable and easy to clean. Pair with a tile surround and a new valve for a complete transformation on a sensible budget.
Freestanding tubs
The luxury choice for master suites: sculptural acrylic, cast iron, or solid-surface tubs that anchor the room's design. They need floor space and a floor-mounted or wall-mounted filler, plus reinforced flooring for heavier models. In Buckhead and Brookhaven master renovations, they are the expected centerpiece.
Jetted and air tubs
Whirlpool and air-bath systems add therapeutic jets for sore muscles and circulation. They require dedicated electrical circuits and access panels for the pump — we plan both during installation. Worth it for wellness-focused clients; overkill if you just want a simple soak.
Surrounds and fixtures
Tile surrounds (waterproofed, of course) offer the most design freedom; solid-surface panels give a seamless, low-maintenance finish. We finish every tub with a new drain and overflow, a modern tub filler or valve, and fresh caulk lines detailed to last in Georgia humidity.

Bathtub Replacement Cost in Atlanta
2026 Atlanta pricing for tub-only replacement projects.
Alcove Tub Swap
$4,500 – $8,500
Old alcove tub out, quality acrylic soaker in, with new surround panels or basic tile, drain, and fixtures. Fast and practical.
Premium Soaking Tub
$8,500 – $15,000
Deeper soaking or jetted tub with full tile surround, niche, upgraded fixtures, and glass enclosure or curtain setup.
Freestanding Statement
$12,000 – $22k+
Freestanding tub with floor-mounted filler, tile or finished surround work, plumbing reconfiguration, and design detailing.
Tub cost itself ranges from a few hundred dollars (basic acrylic alcove) to several thousand (cast iron or stone-resin freestanding). Labor depends on extraction difficulty — cast-iron tubs in upstairs baths are heavy, careful work — surround material, and whether the drain must move. If we find subfloor damage under the old tub (common with long-leaking drains in Atlanta homes), we repair it and show you photos; it is in your written quote, not a surprise.

Questions Atlanta Homeowners Ask
Bathtub Replacement FAQs — Atlanta GA
Tub types, timelines, and costs for Atlanta replacements.
In 2026, Atlanta bathtub replacements typically cost $4,500 to $8,500 for an alcove tub swap, $8,500 to $15,000 for a premium soaking or jetted tub with tile surround, and $12,000 to $22,000+ for a freestanding statement tub with plumbing changes. Tub selection and surround material drive the range; we provide itemized written quotes.
Most bathtub replacements take 3 to 6 working days: demo and extraction, subfloor and plumbing inspection, new tub set, surround finished, and fixtures connected. Freestanding tubs with plumbing relocation can add a day or two.
Yes — that is our tub-to-shower conversion service, one of our most popular projects. If you never take baths, converting the tub space to a walk-in shower is often the smarter investment. We will give you honest pricing for both options during the free consultation.
Replacement, in most cases. Refinishing costs $500–$1,000+ and typically lasts 3–5 years before peeling or staining returns — and it cannot fix a bad drain, rotted surround, or a tub shape you dislike. If your tub is over 15 years old, replacement is the better long-term value.
Usually yes, with planning. Freestanding tubs need adequate floor space, a drain roughed in at the right location, and sometimes floor reinforcement for heavy cast-iron models. We assess all of this during the design visit and handle any plumbing relocation with permits.
Acrylic: affordable, warm to the touch, and easy to clean — the best value for most Atlanta homes. Cast iron: incredibly durable with excellent heat retention, but very heavy. Solid-surface/stone resin: luxurious feel and modern shapes at a premium price. We will match the material to your budget and goals.
Yes. Long-term slow leaks under old tubs frequently damage subfloors in Atlanta homes. We expose the area during replacement, replace damaged subfloor, and document everything with photos. This work is included in your written quote.
A like-for-like tub swap in the same location with no plumbing relocation often does not require a permit; moving the drain, changing the valve type, or altering supply lines typically does. We determine the requirements for your project and handle all permitting.
Customer Reviews
Bathtub Replacement Reviews From Atlanta
New tubs, happy bathers — real Atlanta results.
★★★★★
“Our master bathroom in Brookhaven was stuck in the 90s — pink tile, tiny shower, the works. They did a full tub-to-shower conversion and a walk-in shower with beautiful tile. Crew was clean, polite, and finished in just under three weeks.”
★★★★★
“They remodeled our entire main floor in Kennesaw — kitchen, two baths, and new flooring throughout. One project manager, one timeline, weekly photo updates. Living through a remodel was not fun, but they made it as painless as possible.”
