How the math works

Base price by approach (pro $460, DIY $70) is multiplied by the tub-type size factor, the material factor, and the regional multiplier. Condition adds a flat repair cost ($0 to $150). Custom colour and non-slip are flat add-ons. The output range applies a -15% / +20% band around the mid-point to reflect normal contractor variance.

These numbers come from 2026 national pricing surveys, regional cost data, and a basket of three-quote samples in each US region. Get three local quotes before booking; the calculator output is a budgeting estimate, not a binding price.
