Freestanding Bathtubs in Toronto & Across Canada
A freestanding bathtub is the centrepiece of a well-designed bathroom — sculptural, comfortable, and instantly elevating the whole room. Whether you’re renovating a downtown Toronto condo, a custom build in the GTA, or a primary ensuite anywhere in Canada, a freestanding tub turns daily bathing into something closer to a spa ritual.
At Bath Emporium, we stock one of the largest selections of freestanding bathtubs in Toronto, with curated styles from Victoria + Albert, BainUltra, MAAX, and Neptune. From slipper tubs and double-ended soakers to modern oval and rectangular silhouettes, every model is chosen for its build quality, ergonomics, and long-term value.
Why Choose a Freestanding Bathtub?
Freestanding tubs aren’t fixed to a wall, which gives you flexibility in bathroom layout and turns the tub itself into a design feature. They also tend to have deeper soaking depths than alcove or drop-in tubs, which matters if you actually plan to bathe in it — not just look at it.
- Design impact — the tub becomes the focal point of the room, visible from all sides.
- Deep soaking — most freestanding models have 14–18 inches of water depth versus 10–12 in standard alcove tubs.
- Material quality — premium options in volcanic limestone (Englishcast), cast iron, acrylic, and copper.
- Flexibility — works with floor-mount, wall-mount, or deck-mount fillers.
Popular Freestanding Tub Styles
Oval & Modern Soakers
Clean, contemporary lines that suit modern Toronto condos and minimalist ensuites. Browse our oval bathtubs for the most popular silhouettes.
Clawfoot Tubs
The classic traditional look — perfect for heritage homes, Victorian renovations, and farmhouse-style bathrooms. See the clawfoot bathtub collection for cast iron and acrylic options on ball-and-claw, imperial, and lion’s paw feet.
Cast Iron Freestanding Tubs
Heavy, warm, and built to last a lifetime. Cast iron bathtubs hold heat far longer than acrylic and offer a solid, premium feel.
Slipper & Double-Ended Tubs
Slipper tubs have one raised end for back support; double-ended designs have a centre drain so two people can bathe comfortably or one person can stretch out in either direction.
Choosing the Right Size
Most freestanding tubs in our showroom range from 55 to 72 inches long. For a comfortable soak as a tall adult, look for at least 66 inches. For Toronto condo bathrooms with tight footprints, 55–60 inch oval or slipper tubs fit beautifully without dominating the room. Always confirm your bathroom can support the filled weight — a cast iron tub full of water can exceed 1,000 lbs.
Plumbing & Installation
Freestanding tubs typically pair with a floor-mounted tub filler, which requires rough-in plumbing through the floor — easiest to plan during a full renovation. Wall-mounted and deck-mounted fillers are also options depending on the model and your layout. Our team helps clients across Toronto and Canada spec the right faucet, drain, and supply lines for their tub before installation day.
Delivery Across Canada
We ship freestanding bathtubs across Canada — Toronto, the GTA, Ottawa, Montreal, Vancouver, Calgary, Edmonton, and everywhere in between. Local Toronto-area clients are welcome to visit our showroom to see the tubs in person before ordering.
Final Thoughts
The freestanding bathtub you pick will stay in your home for 20+ years, so it’s worth taking the time to choose the right shape, material, and size for how you actually live. Our team has helped thousands of Toronto and Canadian homeowners spec the right tub for their renovation — we’re happy to do the same for you.

Frequently Asked Questions About Freestanding Tubs
Yes — if you actually use the tub and the bathroom has the space for it. Freestanding tubs offer better soaking depth, more design impact, and significantly higher resale appeal than basic alcove tubs.
Allow at least 4–6 inches between the tub and any wall for cleaning access, and ideally 18–24 inches on the entry side. Most Toronto designers recommend 36 inches of clear space on the long side if possible.
Acrylic is light, warm to the touch, and budget-friendly. Cast iron is heavy, holds heat longest, and lasts generations. Stone composites (like Victoria + Albert’s Englishcast) split the difference: warm, durable, and sculptural. Choose based on weight tolerance, budget, and how often you’ll use the tub.

The weight depends on the material. Acrylic freestanding bathtubs are usually lighter, while cast iron, stone resin, and solid surface tubs can be much heavier. Floor support should be considered before installation.
Prices vary widely depending on the material, brand and size, ranging from a few hundred dollars for an entry-level acrylic model to several thousand dollars for a premium stone-resin or cast-iron tub from brands like Victoria + Albert or BainUltra. Installation, plumbing and shipping across Canada should also be factored into the total budget.
Most freestanding tubs in Canada range from about $1,500 to $4,000, although pricing can be lower for basic acrylic models. High-end freestanding tubs—particularly large stone-resin, cast-iron and air-jet models—can cost $5,000 to $10,000 or more, depending on the brand, material and features. Remember to budget separately for delivery, installation, a tub filler, plumbing adjustments and, when choosing a heavier cast-iron tub, possible floor reinforcement. Premium options from brands such as Victoria + Albert and BainUltra are typically at the higher end of the range.
