How to buy Bathtubs

Bathtubs are available in many different types of material and styles and shapes. The majority of new installations are Enamelled steel standard depth baths. For a deeper bath well, and larger bathing surface, many people choose to move up to Acrylic designs, which are more sumptuous and offer more customization (such as the inclusion of whirlpool or therapeutic systems). There is a third type of material available, gelcoat fibreglass, which is more affordable but provides some of the benefits of Acrylic products.
