In today’s custom home designs, the freestanding tub is more than just a bathroom fixture — it’s a statement piece. At Apex Homes Florida, we view these tubs as both architectural and experiential, offering elegance, comfort, and a spa-like escape from daily life.
Types of Freestanding Tubs
1. Cast Iron: A classic choice that radiates tradition and strength. These tubs hold heat exceptionally well, making them ideal for long, relaxing soaks.

2. Stone: Natural stone tubs exude organic luxury and unique character. Each one is truly one-of-a-kind, offering both weight and presence.

3. Metal: From copper to stainless steel, metal tubs offer a sleek, contemporary feel and excellent heat retention — perfect for modern coastal homes.

4. Acrylic: Lightweight and versatile, acrylic tubs come in a range of shapes and finishes. They’re easy to install and fit seamlessly into any design aesthetic.

Features that Elevate the Experience

Chromotherapy Lighting:Â Set the mood with soothing LED illumination.
Steam Integration:Â Bring the wellness benefits of a steam room into your home.
Ergonomic Design:Â Contoured shapes cradle the body for maximum comfort.
