Choose the Right Bathtub with Melbourne Bathroom Shop

At Melbourne Bathroom Shop, we believe that a bathtub is more than just a place to soak. It's where you unwind after a long day, recharge, and enjoy moments of peace. That’s why we offer a wide range of bathtubs to suit every home, every lifestyle, and every bathroom layout. Whether you're renovating or building from scratch, our collection is designed with function, durability, and timeless design in mind.

Types of Bathtubs at Melbourne Bathroom Shop

We offer four main styles of bathtubs, each with its own benefits depending on your space and preferences:

Freestanding Bathtub

A freestanding bathtub is a bold statement piece. It can be placed anywhere in the bathroom, making it ideal for larger spaces. With no need to be connected to walls, it adds a luxurious and sculptural feel to your bathroom.

Back-to-Wall Bathtub

This design sits flush against the wall but offers the look of a freestanding tub. It’s perfect for bathrooms that want the sleek appeal of a standalone tub but need to save space and simplify cleaning.

Corner Bathtub

Designed to fit snugly into corners, this type of tub makes the most of your bathroom layout. It’s a practical option for smaller bathrooms or for those who want to maximise floor space without giving up comfort.

Insert Bathtub

Also called built-in or drop-in bathtubs, insert bathtubs are fitted into a frame or structure. They provide a clean, integrated look and are a great choice for family bathrooms due to their stability and accessibility.

Durable Materials, Better Performance

At Melbourne Bathroom Shop, we only use premium materials to manufacture our bathtubs. Our main materials are sanitary-grade acrylic and pressed steel, chosen for their proven performance and long-term reliability.

Sanitary-Grade Acrylic

Unlike standard acrylic, sanitary-grade acrylic is thicker, stronger, and more resistant to discolouration and scratches. It also maintains water temperature longer, providing a more comfortable soak. This material is smooth to the touch and easy to clean, making it one of the most hygienic options available. You won’t find the thin or brittle plastic feel you get from some lower-grade bathtubs.

Pressed Steel

Pressed steel is a surprising choice for a bathtub, but it's one of the most durable materials you can find. It resists chips, scratches, and warping even after years of daily use. The steel core is coated with enamel, giving the tub a smooth, glossy finish that’s both beautiful and built to last. It’s also an eco-friendly material and highly resistant to bacterial build-up.

Tips for Choosing the Right Bathtub

Before you decide on a bathtub, consider these simple tips to help you pick the one that works best for your bathroom:

  • Measure your bathroom’s width and length before selecting a tub
  • Choose a freestanding or back-to-wall tub for larger spaces
  • Go for a corner or insert bathtub for tight or awkward layouts
  • Make sure your flooring can support the bathtub’s weight, especially for freestanding or steel tubs
  • Think about who’s using it – families often prefer insert bathtubs for safety and convenience

Frequently Asked Questions

1. How do I choose the right bathtub size for my bathroom?

Measure the available floor space and check the bath’s full length, width and height, not just its nominal size. A 1400mm or 1500mm bath can suit smaller bathrooms, while 1700mm models generally provide more room for adults to stretch out. Also allow enough clearance around nearby vanities, toilets and shower screens. Consider who will use the bath most often, as a compact bath may be fine for children or occasional use, while taller users may prefer a longer model.

2. Freestanding, back-to-wall, corner or inset bath: which should I choose?

A freestanding bath creates a strong feature but needs more space around it. A back-to-wall bath gives a similar modern look while sitting flush against the wall, making cleaning and space planning easier. A corner bath can make good use of an unused corner, while an inset or built-in bath is practical for family bathrooms. The best choice depends on your bathroom layout, available space, plumbing and how often the bath will be used.

3. What should I measure before ordering a bathtub?

Measure the available length, width and overall bath area, but also check how the bath will physically enter the room. Consider doorways, hallways and stairs, especially for larger freestanding baths. Confirm the waste position, bath outlet location and clearance from nearby fixtures. For corner baths, check whether you need a left-hand or right-hand model. If the fit is tight or plumbing is already in place, show the bath specification to your plumber before ordering.

4. Will a new bathtub work with my existing plumbing?

It may, but the waste position, water supply and tapware location need to suit the new bath. Replacing a bath with a similar model in the same position usually requires fewer changes. Switching to a freestanding or back-to-wall bath may require different waste or tapware locations. Always check the product’s technical drawing before ordering. If you are using wall-mounted or floor-mounted bath tapware, confirm the plumbing layout with your plumber before rough-in work is completed.

5. Do I need to buy a bath waste and overflow separately?

It depends on the bath model. Some baths include an overflow or waste, while others require these parts to be purchased separately. Before ordering, check whether the bath has an overflow, what waste size it requires and whether the waste is included. If you want the waste to match your tapware finish, confirm the compatible colour options. Do not choose a bath waste based on appearance alone — it must first suit the bath’s overflow and plumbing configuration.

6. Should I choose an acrylic or steel bathtub?

Acrylic baths are popular because they are relatively lightweight, available in many shapes and sizes, and comfortable for everyday use. Steel baths are more rigid and are commonly used in traditional inset or built-in installations. Neither material is automatically better. The right choice depends on the bath style, installation method, floor structure, budget and how the bathroom will be used. Compare the complete product specifications, including dimensions, weight and installation requirements, before deciding.
