Acrylic Bathtub Remodel Before and After by Adecab

When it comes to bathroom remodeling, few upgrades create a more dramatic transformation than installing a freestanding acrylic bathtub. At Adecab, we've helped countless homeowners across the U.S. turn outdated bathrooms into luxurious, spa-like escapes — all with the simple, stylish addition of an acrylic tub.

In this blog, we’ll walk you through real-life examples, design inspirations, and practical tips that show how Adecab bathtubs elevate both form and function. Whether you're planning a full remodel or just dreaming for now, see what a difference the right tub can make.

Why Choose an Acrylic Freestanding Bathtub for Your Remodel?

Before we get into before-and-after stories, let’s break down what makes acrylic bathtubs the ultimate choice for remodel projects:

  • Lightweight and Easy to Install: No need to reinforce your floors.
  • Affordable Luxury: Get the look of stone or cast iron at a fraction of the cost.
  • Heat Retention: Soak longer without constant refills.
  • Low Maintenance: Smooth, non-porous surfaces resist stains and mildew.

Best of all, acrylic gives you the design flexibility to fit any remodel vision — from vintage to ultra-modern.

Real Remodel: From Dated to Dreamy

Let’s take a look at a few typical remodeling journeys Adecab customers have shared.

Before: A Cramped, Built-In Tub

  • Issues: Cracked grout, mold in corners, and a tub that felt more like a shower basin.
  • Design challenge: The room felt small and dark, even with a window.

After: A 59” Adecab Freestanding Tub

  • Solution: Replaced the built-in with a sleek freestanding model, repositioned for better symmetry.
  • Result: The bathroom feels twice as big and far more luxurious — even though the footprint didn’t change.

“I can't believe how much bigger the room feels now. The tub is the star of the space!”

How the Right Tub Transforms a Space

You may not need a full bathroom overhaul — just the right bathtub. Here’s how an Adecab acrylic tub can completely change your space:

1. Visual Impact

Freestanding bathtubs create a sculptural centerpiece. With clean lines and glossy finishes, they reflect light beautifully and create a sense of openness.

2. Functional Comfort

Built-in tubs can feel cramped or outdated. Adecab tubs are deeper, wider, and ergonomically designed for full-body comfort — perfect for unwinding after a long day.

3. Instant Modernization

A dated bathroom can look brand new with just one major upgrade. Acrylic tubs bring a high-end designer look that works with both traditional and contemporary themes.

Design Tips for a Successful Remodel

Want to make the most of your new bathtub installation? Keep these Adecab-approved tips in mind:

Center the Tub in the Room

If space allows, position your freestanding tub to create balance — even better near a large window or accent wall.

Coordinate Finishes

Pair with matte black, brushed nickel, or gold fixtures to elevate the overall aesthetic.

Add Natural Elements

Use stone-look tiles, wood stools, or greenery to contrast the tub’s gloss and bring in warmth.

Keep the Palette Light

White acrylic tubs pop against light neutrals or soft gray walls, giving your remodel a clean, airy vibe.

Cleaning and Maintenance After the Remodel

One of the biggest advantages of Adecab acrylic tubs? They stay beautiful with minimal effort.

  • Wipe with a soft cloth after each use
  • Use mild soap or white vinegar to clean
  • Avoid abrasive sponges or harsh chemicals

This keeps your tub looking brand-new, year after year.
