First 12 months on site support + keeping shampoos and soaps handy, which freestanding baths don’t have. For freestanding styles, intended to float in the centre of a space, you’ll need to position a stool or table within easy reach, or place accessories on a moveable shelf or caddy that sits across the tub.

“In a smaller bathroom, shelves or a wall niche positioned within easy reach of the bath are spaceefficient ideas,” says Trudi. “You just need to be careful when renovating an old home, as a wall recess may impact plumbing.” If your bath is likely to be used by more than one person at a time, choose a model with a central wastewater outlet, so one person doesn’t end up perched on the plug.

Plumbing options

This is crucial if you are renovating – your existing plumbing may not be easily compatible with the type of bath you want. Inset baths are much easier to plumb in as they sit against the wall and their pipework is hidden behind the surround. For freestanding baths, you need to consider the tapware and wastewater location. “Freestanding baths generally require the installation of a freestanding bath filler, which needs specialised floor mounting and water supply access via the floor,” says Luke Di Michiel. “This might not be possible for all installations.”

Materials matter

Most baths tend to be made from acrylic, which Luke notes is usually more affordable and lighter than alternative materials and has good heat-retention properties. Solid surface baths – with a smooth, seamless, non-porous finish made from engineered composite materials such as natural minerals and resin – are also popular.

Note that heavier styles, such as freestanding natural stone baths, can weigh up to 500kg, so may require structural reinforcement under the supervision of a structural engineer.
