Where can I find a small bathtub?

LauraFox

Hello,

We bought a house and we want to replace the bathtub.

The space available is 1450mm by 640mm.

I did search online and most bathtubs are 1700mm.

Does anyone know where I can find a bathtub for the measurement I have mentioned?

thank you

Laura

Try eBay. I bought a bath (1400mm x 700mm) last year. It was called a Kaldewei and the seller that supplied me was ives-plumbers-ltd. They are based in London but deliver. You should be ok length-wise as baths do come in different lengths, but you may struggle width-wise as most baths seem to be 700mm or 750m wide.

Good luck.

One of the best suppliers of bathroom equipment I use is, Embassy plumbing, based in Frampton Street, London. They have never failed to source anything for me.

(they have other smaller baths too on their web site)

Bathstore do acrylic baths in 1400 or 1500mm. Our bath was 50mm bigger than the room but they channelled out the wall to fit it.

Try your local Plumbers Merchant - they can source all sizes and shapes.

could you use a sit-bath, something like this ?

A quick google, and I also found this more standard, but shorter bath. As a previous poster said though, the width may be an issue

You won't go far wrong with a Kaldewei bath tbh and you can get one from them @ 1500 x 700. Source from any good merchant not just the one linked to above.

The burning question is, though, are you measuring including tiles or excluding tiles? If you have included you will gain space when they come off (and if its a 30s property with thick tiles welded to the walls with concrete you'll be gaining probably an inch on both measurements. In that case the Keldewei will fit nicely.

Cheers

Kaldewei and Bette both make many different sizes/shapes. Generally more expensive than acrylic baths (but they are made from quality steel, will last and look "new" for years).
