UGLY garden tub--no access panel, broken water line.

Post by 10ecN » Mon Mar 31, 2014 4:23 pm

We recently bought a foreclosure 1999 triple wide.

It has the UGLIEST garden tub ...aka kiddy pool....in the master bath that I have ever seen, and I lived in a double wide with a garden tub once before!

This thing is.....hideous.

It is round. Almond colored. Completely round. The drain is in the VERY middle. There are NO access panels or skirting that can be removed.

Problem....there is a broken line that we need to get to !!!!!

Tried going under the house, can't get to it.

Thought about just ripping the whole hideous thing OUT but not sure what to do.

Father in law suggested (kid you not) removing the vinyl siding on the exterior wall, cutting an access hole/panel, fixing the line, and replacing everything.


I have never seen a round, almond color, one piece tub with a hole in the middle.It looks like it is from the 70's and this is a 1999.

I don't even know how we would get it OUT of the bathroom ? The door is pretty narrow.

Ideas ? I would be pretty much happy to take a chainsaw to it. LOL.

I think you should share a pic with us. As it is not clear what is the actual problem with the tub ? It could be easily understandable by the picture.
