Hi Everyone,

I am planning to replace my old bath tub with new one.
New one will be “Steam Shower + Hot Tub + Sauna”
complete unit (tub with all walls and ceiling).
Some plumbing and electrical job will be required.
Electric box is right below bathroom so wiring should not
be a big deal. Water supply and drain piping will need some
rearrangement. Old tiles will go away but there is no need
for new tiles. All dimensions are the same.
I know there is no straight answer for this question
(many things are very individual) but what is typical
cost for bath tub replacement job?

Thank you,

- Vitaliy

Well, this is FAR from a "typical" tub replacement.

I assume you have priced the unit itself, which I am guessing is $4 grand +?

Sight unseen, I will just throw out a wild guess of $450 for electrical work, $1000 for plumbing. Permits probably $250. Can't even guess about the demo. or finish work.

This is really a wild guess, because I can't see your house, and rates vary widely from place to place.
