How Much Will It Cost to Replace My Bathtub?

Thinking about a bathroom upgrade? You’re likely wondering what it costs, who to call, and whether it’s worth the investment. Replacing your bathtub can boost your home’s comfort, style, and value, especially if your old tub is damaged, outdated, or hard to clean.

The cost to replace a bathtub can range from $1,000 to over $5,000, depending on the type of tub, materials, and labor involved. On average, most homeowners spend around $1,500 to $3,000 for a standard replacement.

Here’s a breakdown of what’s included in the cost:

  • Removing the old bathtub
  • Disposing of the debris
  • Plumbing adjustments (if needed)
  • Installing the new tub

Luxury tubs, larger models, or structural changes can drive the cost higher. To get an accurate estimate, search for licensed professionals who replace bathtubs near me and request a few quotes.
