A Guide to Selecting the Perfect Tub for Your Luxury Bathroom Remodel

If you’re here, then you’re probably on the hunt for the perfect bathtub for your new master bathroom. When it comes to choosing a bathtub…where do you even begin? Let’s explore the many different options you have when it comes to picking out the perfect tub!

1. Freestanding Bathtubs: A Sculptural Focal Point

Freestanding tubs are top-notch luxury. With its graceful curves or the bold architectural lines, they instantly transform an ordinary bathroom into a masterpiece of a design.

2. Drop-In and Undermount Tubs: Sleek and Built-In

For a seamless, integrated look, drop-in or undermount tubs are installed within a custom surround—often made of marble, quartz, or tile. This option works beautifully for clients who prefer a more traditional or minimalist aesthetic.

3. Soaking Tubs: Deep Comfort Meets Timeless Design

Deeper than standard tubs, soaking tubs invite you to fully submerge and unwind. Japanese-inspired soaking tubs are especially popular for their compact, vertical design — perfect for smaller spaces without sacrificing comfort.

Why are team loves them: They offer a spa-like soak without the mechanical complexity of jets or bubbles.

4. Whirlpool and Air Tubs: Hydrotherapy at Home

Best for: Clients who want a high-end spa experience with health benefits.

Why our team loves them: They ease muscle tension and elevate your daily self-care routine.
