An old, stained, or damaged bathtub can drag down the look and feel of your entire bathroom. Whether your tub is cracked, outdated, or simply not the right fit for your lifestyle, replacing it is one of the most effective upgrades you can make.
At Bloomington Bathroom Remodeling, we specialize in bathtub replacement and installation for homeowners in Bloomington, MN and throughout Hennepin County. We are a licensed and insured contractor with 8+ years of experience, and we handle every step of the process — from removal of your old tub through installation and finishing of your new one.
Whether you are upgrading to a deep soaking tub, switching to an elegant freestanding tub, or converting your tub space into a walk-in shower, we have the expertise to deliver a result you will love.
Bathtub Options We Install
We install a wide range of bathtub types and styles to match your bathroom layout, design preferences, and budget.
- Alcove Bathtubs: The most common tub style, designed to fit between three walls. Available in a variety of materials and sizes, alcove tubs are a practical and affordable choice for standard bathroom layouts.
- Freestanding Bathtubs: A stunning focal point for any bathroom. Freestanding tubs are available in modern, traditional, and transitional styles — including clawfoot, pedestal, and flat-bottom designs.
- Soaking Tubs: Deeper than standard tubs, soaking tubs are designed for full-body immersion and relaxation. Available in alcove, freestanding, and drop-in configurations.
- Drop-In Bathtubs: Installed into a built-in deck or surround, drop-in tubs offer a clean, integrated look and can be paired with custom tile surrounds for a high-end finish.
- Walk-In Bathtubs: Featuring a low-threshold door for easy entry and exit, walk-in tubs are ideal for aging-in-place and accessibility needs. Available with built-in seating, grab bars, and hydrotherapy jets.
Tub-to-Shower Conversions
One of the most popular bathroom upgrades in Bloomington is converting an existing bathtub into a modern walk-in shower. This conversion opens up space, creates a contemporary look, and can improve accessibility for all family members.
Our tub-to-shower conversion process includes:
- Complete removal of the existing bathtub and surround
