Freestanding Bathtub Installation Cost Vancouver 2025
Freestanding Bathtub Installation in Vancouver
A freestanding soaker tub is one of the most requested luxury bathroom features in Metro Vancouver renovations. Installation costs range from $3,500 for a basic acrylic tub to $12,000+ for a stone resin or cast iron statement piece.
Cost by Tub Material
| Material | Tub Cost | Installation | Total |
|---|---|---|---|
| Acrylic (entry-level) | $800–$2,000 | $600–$1,000 | $1,400–$3,000 |
| Acrylic (mid-range oval) | $1,500–$3,500 | $700–$1,200 | $2,200–$4,700 |
| Stone resin (Kohler, BainUltra) | $3,000–$7,000 | $800–$1,500 | $3,800–$8,500 |
| Cast iron | $3,500–$8,000 | $1,000–$2,000 | $4,500–$10,000 |
Installation Considerations
- Floor structural capacity: Cast iron tubs weigh 300–500 lbs empty — floor joist capacity must be confirmed
- Freestanding tub filler: Floor-mounted faucet adds $500–$1,800 to project cost
- Drain location: Floor drain must be precisely centred below tub drain
