Instead of replacing their stained and old bathtub or shower stall, many homeowners choose to install an acrylic bathtub or shower liner. A liner is a great, affordable option if you want to update the look of your bathtub or shower without the messy and time-consuming replacement process that involves removing old tiles and walls. If you’re thinking of installing a liner, read on as South Shore Dream Bath answers frequently asked questions. 

Why Shouldn’t I Just Replace My Bathtub or Shower? 

A bathtub or shower replacement project is a difficult and messy task. The process can damage flooring, walls, and plumbing, leaving your bathroom out of service for weeks. Many homeowners also don’t have enough time and money for a major home improvement project. As such, most choose to install an acrylic bathtub or shower liner. It can even be installed in as little as one day. 

Is a Bathtub or Shower Liner Easy to Clean?

Bathtub and shower acrylic liners from South Shore Dream Bath are easy to maintain. They provide years of use and even come with a lifetime warranty for your peace of mind. Additionally, since acrylic is a non-porous material, the liner will not trap dirt. To clean it, all you need is a non-abrasive cleaner and water. These liners are a great, low-cost way to give your bathroom the much-needed upgrade it deserves!

What Does the Installation Process Look Like?

Before your bathroom contractor installs your bathtub liner, they will come to your house and take a few measurements and photos of your existing bathtub. This way, they make sure the custom mold can exactly fit your tub. A sheet of acrylic is then thermal-formed to your exact dimensions. 

As for the shower liner, South Shore Dream Bath employs a method that’s different from many bath restoration companies. Our team custom forms our shower liners to fit your existing shower base. We will remove any damaged or loose material, and then, install a new slip-resistant acrylic shower liner over the existing surface.
