Replacing a bathtub is a labor-intensive and costly process. It begins with the removal and disposal of the existing tub, followed by an inspection and preparation of the plumbing for the new tub’s installation. A new foundation is required to ensure the new tub fits properly. Once installed, any tiles around the tub’s perimeter that were damaged during demolition must be replaced. Considering all these factors, the total cost for labor and materials can range from approximately $2,000 to $3,500. Even opting for the least expensive bathtub from retailers like Home Depot or Lowe’s, the overall expense will still be significantly higher compared to refinishing. Therefore, hiring a professional refinisher might be a more sensible option.
