My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

bathtub placement

7 years ago
We are starting an en-suite renovation and we need to decide where to place the free standing tub.

Option A is to place the tub on an angle. The idea being there is more useable space around the tub for a table or plant.

Option B is to place the tub straight on.

I am leaning towards option B.

What do you think?

    I see no benefit to having it on an angle when you have space to make it straight, and the angle takes away from your countertop and walkway space.
