Bathtub curved front help

last year

Are there any bathtubs that can fit into a 60 x 30 opening that curves in the front with a maximum depth of 32 inches? We would like to replace our tub that is 29 on the ends and 31 at the center depth, while keeping our existing tile floor. All of the ones I've found are 34" or more at the center depth, and this is a small full bathroom only 36 sq ft. There's not much walking room for anything deeper.

Curious - why do you need to replace the tub?

The finish around the drain is worn through, plus many of the wall tiles are cracked, plus the height of the showerhead is pretty low. Since we're re-doing the plumbing, and removing all of the tiles that are mudded in place, and the tub is worn, we're planning on replacing them all. We could refinish the tub, which doesn't last, but we don't want to have to revisit this again down the road.

It’s a full gut. You will never find a tub to fit that footprint, so the floor tile and mud base need to come out, all the joists get sistered, new subfloor, etc. There are no shortcuts.

For a tub with a curved front, look at the Kohler Expanse tub -- it has a matching curved shower rod. But the curve is very different from what you have. That said, it is much easier to install floor tile against a tub with straight lines.
