KMS Woodworks on Mar 13, 2012Yes...pics would be helpful. A traditional tub is set on the floor or along some wood "cleats' that are attached to the wall studs...then typically the backer for the tile is set above. When acrylic tub enclosures are used the "sides" are normally set in a similar fashion. I most cases the sides and a course of two of tile need to come away first to allow the tub to come out.Helpful Reply

Diane Basile on Feb 11, 2015Sometimes a tub is set into a cement filler to keep it secure if it's not cast iron, that's how it was with our old one.Helpful Reply
