Bathtub Options
Hi Everyone,
Attached is a photo of the existing shower/tub that my brother wants to replace. Together we're going to replace the tub and then tile around it using either ceramic or porcelain. The questions is this, what type of tub material should we use (e.g. cast iron, fiberglass, etc.)? I've read the Americast Tub by American Standard is a great option but wanted to get everyone's opinion on this renovation. Thanks :)

I need to "repair" Or do something to a bath tub-shower that has been repaired before, can you help me?

Oh wow! That's our exact tub insert - color and all. I want to remove ours too, and do a tub and tile the shower, but apparently since it's a one-piece, he doesn't want to remove it, instead have it refinished. Uggh!
