Your Ultimate Guide to Freestanding Bath Sizes, Styles, and More

Freestanding baths have become more popular, thanks in part to a wider variety of styles available and the fact that they now come in a range of sizes that can fit almost any bathroom of any size.

Here at JT Spas, we have a broad collection of freestanding baths suitable for any bathroom, from the biggest, most luxurious bathrooms to smaller, more compact spaces. But when you are choosing a freestanding bath, how do you know what to look for? Here's your ultimate guide to freestanding bath sizes, styles, and more.

The size matters

Size matters when it comes to freestanding baths, particularly if you have a small bathroom. One of the first questions you should then have is this: how much available space do you have in your bathroom to comfortably fit a freestanding bath? The good news is that'since there are more sizes available today, you can be sure to find even small freestanding baths that are perfect for your small bathroom. When you are looking for a bath, however, you have to carefully measure certain elements, such as the bathroom door frame as well as stairwells and hallways where the bath will have to pass through to reach your bathroom.

The purpose

Freestanding baths have an obvious purpose: to keep you clean whilst helping you'relax at the same time. But there's more to a bath?s purpose than this. For instance, if you are a fan of long and luxurious soaks, then you might want to take a closer look at the comfort the bath can give you. If you feel stressed almost all the time, you might also want to look for extra features such as massage jets and the like.

Also, ask yourself this: who will be taking advantage of the bath? Is it just you and your spouse, or do you have a whole brood set to benefit from it? If you have an entire family using the bath, you might want to choose something bigger and more spacious. Remember, there are baths that are extra long, extra deep, or extra wide. There are also baths big enough for two people at the same time, whilst there are baths that are very compact and perfect for just one person with a smaller bathroom.

The style

Freestanding baths come in all shapes nowadays as well. There are those with plinths or pedestals, and some with claw feet. There are also soaking baths which have different widths and lengths, and slipper baths which have one higher end.

At the end of the day, the choice is yours. Know what purpose your bath will serve and what size fits your bathroom best, and know what styles and extra features would suit you most. This way, you can benefit from a freestanding bath that is certainly the right fit for all your needs.
