Why Install a New Bathtub Surround?

An old or damaged bathtub surround can make an otherwise attractive bathroom look dated. Cracked tiles, stained grout, loose panels, and deteriorating caulk can also create opportunities for water to reach areas that should remain dry.

Installing a new bathtub surround can provide several benefits:

Better Water Protection

A properly installed surround creates a protective barrier between your bathtub and bathroom walls, helping minimize water exposure.

Easier Maintenance

Modern surround materials are available with smooth, low-maintenance surfaces that are easier to clean than heavily grouted wall systems.

Updated Bathroom Appearance

Choose colors, textures, patterns, and finishes that complement your bathtub, flooring, vanity, and other bathroom features.

Long-Term Durability

Professional installation helps ensure the surround is properly fitted, secured, sealed, and finished for everyday use.

Improved Bathroom Value

A fresh, professionally installed bathtub surround can improve the overall appearance and functionality of your bathroom.

Bathtub Surround Options for Chicago Homes

Every bathroom has different dimensions and design requirements. That’s why we offer several bathtub surround options.

Acrylic Bathtub Surrounds

Acrylic surrounds are a popular choice for homeowners who want a clean, contemporary appearance with relatively easy maintenance. They are available in different colors, patterns, and configurations.

Fiberglass Bathtub Surrounds

Fiberglass surrounds offer a practical option for bathroom renovations where homeowners want an economical and straightforward wall solution.

Tile Bathtub Surrounds

Tile allows you to create a more customized appearance. From classic subway tile to large-format porcelain, natural stone, or decorative tile, there are countless design possibilities.

Waterproof Wall Panels

Modern waterproof wall panels can provide a seamless or low-maintenance appearance while reducing the amount of grout required around the bathtub.

Custom Bathtub Surrounds

For bathrooms with unique dimensions or specific design requirements, a custom surround can be planned around the existing bathtub and surrounding walls.

Our Bathtub Surround Installation Process

We take a detailed approach to bathtub surround installation to help ensure the finished installation looks great and performs properly.

1. Bathroom Assessment

We inspect the bathtub area, surrounding walls, plumbing configuration, existing surround, and overall bathroom condition.

2. Measurements & Planning

Accurate measurements are essential for a proper fit. We determine the dimensions and layout before installation begins

3. Surround Material Selection

We help you select a surround material, color, pattern, and finish that works with your bathroom design and maintenance preferences

4. Surface Preparation

The existing surround or wall materials are removed when necessary. The installation area is prepared to provide a suitable surface for the new surround.

5. Waterproofing

Water-resistant preparation and proper sealing are important parts of a bathtub surround installation. We pay close attention to areas around corners, seams, fixtures, and transitions.

6. Surround Installation

The selected surround system is carefully installed and fitted around the bathtub. Panels or tiles are aligned for a clean, professional appearance.

7. Sealing & Finishing

Joints, corners, and relevant penetrations are properly sealed to help protect the installation from moisture.

8. Final Inspection

We review the completed installation and make sure the bathtub surround is properly fitted and finished.

Bathtub Surround Replacement in Chicago

If your existing bathtub surround is cracked, stained, outdated, or difficult to maintain, replacement may be a better option than repeatedly repairing individual areas.

Signs that it may be time for a bathtub surround replacement include:

  • Cracked or loose wall panels
  • Damaged or deteriorating grout
  • Persistent discoloration
  • Failed caulking
  • Water damage around the bathtub
  • Mold or mildew concerns
  • Loose tiles
  • An outdated bathroom design
  • Difficult-to-clean surfaces

During your remodeling consultation, we can evaluate the existing surround and discuss whether replacement or repair makes the most sense for your bathroom

Designed to Complement Your Bathroom

Your bathtub surround should look like part of the bathroom—not an afterthought.

We can coordinate your new surround with other bathroom features, including:

  • Bathtubs
  • Shower fixtures
  • Bathroom vanities
  • Countertops
  • Flooring
  • Wall colors
  • Lighting
  • Storage
  • Faucets and hardware

Whether you prefer a simple, modern look or a more customized design, the goal is to create a cohesive bathroom that fits your home.
