BATHROOM
REMODELING MATERIALS - BATHTUBS |
Tubs are constructed from three main materials. Cast iron is the strongest,
heaviest and most expensive. Porcelain is a good durable option –– and
less expensive than cast iron. Acrylic tubs are becoming more popular.
They are relatively inexpensive and made from a light material. A great
upgrade option is a whirlpool jet tub. Unfortunately, most city bathrooms
are too small for them. Since many tubs in pre-war buildings are made
from cast iron, and a good option may be to re-glaze which renews the
tub surface. It is even possible to re-glaze the tub in a different color. |
