7 Benefits of Freestanding Tubs

If you love baths, you are going to love our freestanding tubs at Dietrich Homes !

If you want to have an ensuite bathroom with flair, consider buying a home with a freestanding tub. This bathtub can really make the room look unique and comes in many different colors and designs. Although a freestanding tub takes up a little more room than a built-in one, it still offers a lot of advantages . Here are seven benefits of freestanding tubs:

  • Flexibility

A big benefit of a freestanding tub is flexibility. While built-in tubs normally have to be placed against a bathroom’s walls, freestanding tubs can be put anywhere.

  • Distinct style

One thing you can’t deny about a freestanding tub is that it makes a statement. When friends and family members walk into your bathroom, they will definitely take a second look at your tub. Since so many homes have built-in tubs nowadays, a freestanding tub will make your bathroom décor stand out.

  • Many different colors and designs

Freestanding tubs come in a variety of different colors and design. Gold and Black are really hot colours right now! So you can certainly find one that goes with your bathroom’s decor. Choosing a clawfoot double-slipper style can complement antique or vintage decor.

  • Plethora of materials

With freestanding tubs, you have plenty of materials to choose from. A cast iron tub, for example, is durable and can last for decades. If your bathroom floor can support a lot of weight, consider buying a stone tub; it’s bold and will add a unique touch to the room.

  • Vintage touch

If you love nostalgia, you will really be a fan of the freestanding tub. The style can add a vintage touch to your bathroom and make it look like you have stepped back in time.

  • Shows off tile

If you are proud of the tile in your bathroom, you have another reason to buy a freestanding tub. Since often this tub is raised off the floor, you can show off more of your tile.

  • Illusion of extra space

A freestanding tub may use up slightly more room than a built-in tub, but your bathroom will not look any smaller. In fact, installing one of these tubs can give the illusion of more space. The open area beneath the tub can make the bathroom look bigger than it actually is.

All of our newly built homes at Dietrich Homes offer a freestanding tub in the primary ensuite bathroom as a standard feature.
