Shower-Tub Combinations

A combo unit gives you both bathing and showering in one fixture. These are practical for smaller bathrooms and suit busy Mandeville households. We install the surround with a sliding door or curtain rod for your preference.

Many homeowners pair shower-tub combos with simple tile or acrylic walls for easy cleaning and long-term durability.

Why It Matters

A quality tub installation adds function and value to your home while preventing costly water damage and plumbing issues down the road.

Quality Lasts Longer Than Cost Savings

A poorly installed tub can leak into walls, rot wood framing, and cause mold. In Mandeville's humid climate, proper sealing and ventilation are critical. We use waterproofing best practices to protect your home's structure for decades.

Leaks behind walls are expensive to fix. Right installation protects your investment from day one.

Local Building Codes & Permits

St. Tammany Parish requires permits for tub installations to ensure plumbing and structural safety. We handle all paperwork and inspections so your project meets local standards. This protects your home's value and avoids problems when you sell.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about tub installation in Mandeville.

Do I need a permit for a tub installation in Mandeville?

Yes, St. Tammany Parish requires a permit for tub installations. We handle all paperwork and inspections to meet local building codes.

Can I install a freestanding tub in an older Mandeville home?

Yes, but we'll first check the floor's load capacity and plumbing access. Older homes near Old Mandeville may need floor reinforcement or adjusted drain routing.

What's the difference between acrylic and tile surrounds?

Acrylic is affordable and easy to clean; tile is durable and customizable in color and style. We'll discuss durability and cost for your space and budget.

Do walk-in tubs require special plumbing?

Walk-in tubs need a dedicated drain line and often a larger water supply to fill properly. We'll assess your existing plumbing and recommend upgrades if needed.

How do you prevent leaks in a new tub installation?

We use waterproof membranes behind surrounds, seal all joints and caulk lines carefully, and ensure proper grading so water drains away. Mandeville's humidity makes this critical.

Can I reuse my existing plumbing lines?

In most cases, yes. We'll inspect the old lines for leaks or corrosion first. If they're sound, reusing them saves money; otherwise, we'll recommend replacing for long-term safety.
