Here are the answers to your questions about freestanding baths, specifically 1600mm baths:
Is a 1600mm bath too small?
A 1600mm bath is generally considered a popular and practical size, especially for smaller bathrooms. It’s got plenty of space for a comfortable and luxurious soak without taking up too much room. Although it may not be as large as larger models, it’s suitable for most people and fits snugly in tight bathroom spaces.
What are the downsides of a freestanding bath?
Some downsides of freestanding baths are:
- They often require more floor space than built-in baths, which can be a challenge in tiny bathrooms.
- Installation can be more complex and expensive, especially if plumbing needs to be adjusted for floor-standing taps or waste outlets.
- Cleaning around and underneath the bath can be more difficult compared to built-in models.
- Freestanding baths can be heavier, especially those made from materials like cast iron or stone resin, so a strong floor base is necessary.
Are freestanding baths worth it?
Freestanding baths are worth it if you want a luxurious and elegant centrepiece in your bathroom. They provide spa-like experiences, often crafted from high-quality materials that retain heat well for extended soaks. Their aesthetic appeal and versatility in style—from modern to traditional—make them a desirable choice for many homeowners. However, consider your bathroom space and the complexity of the installation before making a decision.
How much does it cost to install a freestanding bath?
Installation costs will depend on the material of the bath, plumbing requirements and bathroom layout. Installation can cost from a few hundred to over a thousand pounds if additional plumbing work or floor reinforcement is required. Obtain quotes from professional installers to determine the total cost for your specific situation.
