Installing it was trickier than we thought, and some wall repairs had to be made. In addition, we had the bathtub and tile around the bathtub resurfaced as an alternative to replacing everything in that space. It&#8217;s more economical, and besides, the existing bathtub was VERY GOOD quality. There were some chips on the enamel that the resurfacing resolved.<\/p>\n<p>Here are some pictures of the finished product. It isn&#8217;t the biggest bathroom, so it was a tight squeeze to get all the pictures I wanted.
