I have a 47 year old house and a smallish, cast-iron tub in the main bath. I'd like to replace it with a nicer, fiberglass soaker tub. We're planning on selling in a year or two, so want to DIY the project if possible. We're kind of handy, but definitely beginners. We did replace our shower in our master bath with a 3-piece fiberglass unit that nails to the studs and it turned out fine.
Anyway, the question starts with the measurements. The alcove for the tub measures 57 3/4 inches long and 31 3/4 deep, inside measurements - that is to say from the interior of the existing surround. The depth is determined by a corner, that's the absolute maximum.
So...the tub I'm looking at says it's 60 x 32. Is that the rough opening size? Is it possible to fit that in this spot? The depth has me concerned because the surround will have to end right at the corner of the alcove and I'm not 100% how that will look.
Thoughts?
