Bathtub Replacement In Cranberry, PA
Every New Tub Set In A Full 60lb Mortar Bed For A Rock-Solid Feel
An old bathtub that’s cracked, stained, or feels bouncy underfoot drags your whole bathroom down. Getting a bathtub replacement in Cranberry, PA is a real decision many homeowners have to make. You want a tub that feels solid, cleans easily, and holds up for decades in the Greater Pittsburgh Area’s climate.
Most one-day companies glue the base down and move on. That’s fast, but it leads to a squishy feel and cracked pans later. At Mt. Pleasant Window & Remodeling Co., we take an extra day to set every tub in a full mortar bed.
Our bathroom work starts with the wet-area upgrade first, then follows with any broader remodel elements. We’ve completed tens of thousands of projects since 1975, and we back the work with a warranty that actually means something.
How We Handle Bathtub Replacement In Cranberry, PA
Here’s the step-by-step we follow on every bathroom tub replacement in Butler County, PA, from tear-out to your final walkthrough.
Here’s the step-by-step we follow on every bathroom tub replacement in Butler County, PA, from tear-out to your final walkthrough.
Needs Analysis And Safety Check
First, we sit down and put pressure on the problem, not the person. We inspect your current tub, measure the space, and talk through your goals. Then we run a post-sale safety check re-measure to verify every dimension before an order is placed. This catches sizing issues early, so your new tub fits your opening right the first time.
Careful Tear-Out With Dust Control
When we begin construction, we remove your old tub with drop cloths and plastic barriers running from the front door to the work area. This contains dust and debris and keeps the rest of your home clean. If we find rot or water damage behind the old unit, we photograph it and show you right away. No hidden issues get buried behind a new tub, and we don’t wait to give you updates.
The 60lb Mortar Bed Foundation
We set every tub base in a full 60lb mortar bed instead of gluing it down. This extra step takes an additional day, but it eliminates the “hotel shower bounce” and protects your drain seal from shifting. The result is a tub that feels as solid the day it’s installed as it will decades later. That durability protects your home’s structure, too.
Acrylic Walls And NovaFlex Sealing
We install high-density acrylic walls that are non-porous, so they resist the mold and rot that plague tile and grout. Then we seal with professional-grade NovaFlex sealant instead of using cheap $4 caulk. It costs us four times as much, but creates a permanent, flexible weather seal. That means fewer leaks and less scrubbing for you.
Final Walkthrough
No job is finished until you’ve personally inspected it. Your lead installer shows you how to clean and care for the new tub, checks every caulk line for crispness, and verifies that the site is left 95% clean. We want your bathroom’s condition once we leave as good as, or better than, we found it.
Choosing The Right Bathtub Setup For Your Home
A few key decisions shape choosing your new tub. Here’s how to think through them and get the right option for your home.
Choosing Your Tub Material
We install high-density acrylic and composite tub systems, not tile. Acrylic is non-porous, warm to the touch, and easy to wipe clean. It won’t trap mold in grout lines like tile does. For most Cranberry, PA homes, acrylic bathtub replacement gives you the best long-term durability and the lowest cleaning effort.
Keeping A Tub Vs. Converting
If you want to keep bathing but your tub is worn out, a straight bathtub replacement is the move. If your household no longer uses the tub, a tub-to-shower conversion may fit better. We’ll walk both paths during your needs analysis, so you pick what actually fits your family, not what earns us the biggest ticket.
Standard Replacement Vs. Wet-Area Plus Remodel
Every bathroom project starts with the wet-area upgrade first. If you only want the bathtub replacement, we do exactly that. If you want more changed afterward, we can add vanities, a toilet, and other elements once the wet area is set. This order protects the most water-exposed part of your bathroom before touching the rest.

Both the Crew Manager Dave & his helper plumber Michael, were very talented skilled trade workers! They were very efficient in their providing a quick install of a very Quality bathroom 'Walkin Shower' facility, along with an 'exhaust fan/heater blower/light' unit & also a new recessed wall mounted 'Medicine Cabinet' install! The 'Crew Manager' Dave got our approval 1st, on everything that they installed in our bathroom! Also Dave gave both of us a tour review of their final installation work for our approval, before having us sign the work completion forms! We would definitely have this same "Mt. Pleasant Window and Remodeling Company", do any of our future upcoming Remodeling & install projects! Sincerely; Kenneth L. Ellis Jr. Home Owner

Bathtub Replacement FAQs For Cranberry, PA Homeowners
These are common questions we hear about our bathtub installation services in Cranberry, PA, and the answers we give most often.
These are common questions we hear about our bathtub installation services in Cranberry, PA, and the answers we give most often.
Do you replace tile showers or install shower tile?
No, we install high-density acrylic and composite systems, not tile. Acrylic is non-porous, so it resists the mold and rot that build up in tile grout lines. It’s easier to clean and more durable for the local climate.
What determines the cost of bathtub replacement?
Cost depends on your tub material, the condition behind the old unit, and any hidden water damage we find. Acrylic systems, custom sizing, and repairs to rotted framing all factor in. We give a 100% honest quote up front with no artificial urgency, and we explain the “why” behind every line.
What does your workmanship warranty cover?
We back our installs with a 5-year workmanship warranty, and our “Humble Pie” rule means we fix any install error or product failure at our own cost. Because we’ve been stable and profitable since 1975 with a physical office in Export, PA, that warranty actually means something. Create a page from this content
What happens if you find rot behind my old tub?
We photograph it and show you immediately, before we cover anything up. Old tubs often hide water damage in the framing or substrate. We document it in the moment with Company Cam so there are no surprises, then we talk through the fix before moving forward and doing any more work.
Why does the mortar bed matter so much?
A full mortar bed eliminates flex and protects the drain seal from shifting over time. Most one-day companies glue the base down instead, which leads to a squishy feel and cracked pans down the road. Our mortar bed keeps your tub feeling rock-solid for decades and protects your home’s structure.
