Wow, thanks I'm shocked that high. For the basic tub and tile install and labor (not including the materials) I was thinking about $2-3K but don't know much about this.


My guess is it's a whole lot closer to $10K than $3K (and probably would be $10K)


Agree. We just replaced a tub 20 years ago and I think it was about $2k, including materials. The big question is whether the shower is big enough to fit a tub. If not, you're going to be moving walls and that will be a lot more.

Take 4-5 photos and email them to 3-4 contractors or plumbers and ask for a rough estimate.

No the shower stall needs to be replaced with a tub. I don't think they can "save" the tile right?

House I'm looking at has two full baths but only has showers no bathtub. I need a bathtub, any idea what that costs to install one? The rest of the bathroom is up to date good enough just need the tub.
