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.

Drop-in and Undermount bathtubs

4 years ago

Appreciate opinions on whether drop-in, or undermount, or two wall alcove bathtubs are outdated? We are renovating a main suite bathroom, and removing an old jetted bathtub. There is a separate shower that will be on the same wall as the tub. There is ample space in the room, however, we are not fans of freestanding bathtubs; and like the look of drop-in, undermount, and two-wall alcove bathtubs. Nonetheless, we do not want to put something back into a renovation that keeps the room looking out of date. Thank you.

    IMO any of those will be better than FS tub which IMO will be one of those dated things very soon. I think I need to see the new shower stayle and in that space I think a nice drop in tub with a same leven wide space under the window would be great not tile for the area around the tub though so some silid surface material this is a nice look
