How to choose the right freestanding bathtub

A freestanding bathtub is usually the visual centrepiece of a bathroom, so start by deciding where it will sit and how much clearance you can give it on every side – 100mm to 150mm minimum, more if you want it to breathe as a feature. Because the tub isn't fixed to a wall, tapware is either floor-mounted in front of the bath or wall-mounted behind it, and this needs to be planned with your plumber before rough-in, not after the tub arrives.

Shape affects both comfort and footprint: oval and curved profiles are the most space-flexible, while slipper-style tubs with a raised end suit a single bather who wants to recline. Weight is the other practical factor – acrylic tubs are lighter and easier to manoeuvre into a first-floor bathroom, while composite stone tubs are heavier, retain heat for longer, and may need floor reinforcement checked on upper storeys.

Frequently asked questions

Do freestanding bathtubs need special plumbing?
Yes. Because a freestanding tub isn't against a wall, you generally need a floor-mounted or wall-mounted bath filler rather than a deck-mounted tap, and the waste runs under the floor to a fixed point. It's worth planning tap position with your plumber before the tub arrives.
How much space do I need around a freestanding bathtub?
Allow at least 100-150mm clearance from any wall so the tub reads as freestanding and is easy to clean around, plus enough floor space in front for someone to step in and out comfortably – usually 700mm or more.
Are freestanding bathtubs heavier than built-in tubs?
An acrylic freestanding tub is usually similar in weight to a built-in acrylic tub. Composite stone freestanding tubs are considerably heavier and it's worth checking your floor structure can support the filled weight, especially on upper floors.
Can a freestanding bathtub go in a small bathroom?
Yes, with the right size choice. A 1200mm to 1400mm oval or slipper-style freestanding tub can work in a smaller ensuite, though back-to-wall or corner styles are usually more space-efficient if floor space is tight.
