What the Bathtub Installation Process Looks Like
Before you commit, it helps to know exactly what to expect. Here’s how GEM makes bathtub installation simple from start to finish.
Every bathroom is different. We evaluate your current tub, plumbing setup, flooring, wall materials, and available space. You’ll get tailored recommendations on styles, materials, and configurations that work best for your home.
Old tubs are bulky, heavy, and often tightly installed. GEM removes your current unit safely, protects surrounding surfaces, and disposes of it properly. We also inspect your plumbing for any issues that could affect your new installation.
Your new bathtub is set, leveled, and secured with proper supports. We connect the drain, overflow, and supply lines, test for leaks, and confirm everything meets current plumbing codes.
We seal the perimeter, clean the work area, and make sure your bathroom is ready for use. Before we leave, we walk you through the new installation, answer questions, and confirm you’re satisfied.

Signs It’s Time to Replace Your Bathtub
Not sure whether to replace your tub? Here are a few signs that indicate it might be time.
Over time, fiberglass and acrylic tubs can develop hairline cracks that deepen and spread. Even if they seem small, they can cause leaks or lead to soft, unstable surfaces.
Minerals, rust, and age-related discoloration often become permanent. If scrubbing no longer works, the finish may be worn beyond repair.
Slippery surfaces, low sides, or high step-in heights can make daily use uncomfortable or risky, especially for children, aging family members, or anyone with mobility concerns.
Maybe you want a deeper tub for relaxing, a walk-in for accessibility, or a design that finally matches your bathroom. When your tub no longer serves your lifestyle, it’s time to consider an upgrade.

Today’s tubs are built with everyday use in mind. Deeper basins, ergonomic shapes, slip-resistant surfaces, and optional features like soaking depths or hydrotherapy jets all contribute to a more comfortable bathing experience.
Modern materials are designed to resist staining, cracking, and mildew. That means your tub stays looking cleaner with less effort, and holds up better over time.
