We replace worn-out bathtubs with beautiful, functional ones that transform your entire bathroom. No design meetings that go nowhere, no surprise costs, no crews that disappear for weeks. Just a straightforward replacement that gives you the bathroom upgrade you’ve been wanting, completed in days, not months.
Why San Diego Homeowners Choose Nulux
Here’s what we’ve learned after 65+ years of San Diego bathroom projects: most bathtub replacements fail because contractors don’t understand how San Diego homes are actually built. The plumbing configurations in 1970s Rancho Bernardo homes are different from the structural challenges in coastal Del Mar properties.
We’ve solved these problems hundreds of times. Our crews know which older homes have cast iron tubs that require special removal techniques, how to handle the foundation issues common in hillside neighborhoods, and why standard installation methods fail in our shifting soil conditions. This isn’t theoretical knowledge—it’s what we deal with every single day.
Our installers aren’t subcontractors juggling multiple companies. They’re our full-time employees who’ve been doing this work for years, are licensed and insured, and show up when they say they will. We handle permits ourselves because we know exactly what San Diego County inspectors are looking for. And we back every project with a lifetime warranty because we’re not going anywhere.
The remodeling of our bathroom was a very good experience we didn't anticipate. The never used bathtub provided a space where we now enjoy nature & birds we watch through the windows.
We replaced our tub shower combination with a new quartz shower and it looks great. Jesse did a great job in explaining the entire process so that there wasn't any surprises. Israel, who did the majority of the installation, was courteous, meticulous and kept our bathroom very clean. Jim reviewed the overall work and was available by phone to answer any construction questions. I recommend Nulux for any of your bathroom remodeling needs.
Sean, the rep I met with, was informative and nice. His presentation helped me make my choice to go with Nulux. Jim, the project organizer, called to schedule a start date only after I called after waiting a number of weeks. By chance, the materials for the shower had arrived that day and he simply hadn't got to me yet.
The perk of the project was Israel, the installer. Super friendly, caring, good sense of humor, (loved his music), worked hard and long to demolish the old and install the new shower in three days. My significant said to me as Israel left, "He is a perfect representative for any company." He is a keeper! I would ask for Israel to do any future work I might have.

I used Nulux to remodel three bathroom In my investment property that were circa 1977.
I was looking for a company that did the acrylic inserts and I really liked the selections that they had. Everything was seamless from quote to execution to completion.
I live in another state so managing this project was a little more complicated than the normal project. Their construction manager, Jim, kept me informed at every milestone and they finished on time which was very important to me.
I would highly recommend this company to anyone in the North County San Diego area who is looking for bathroom remodeling.

We had our bath tub remodeled into a walk in shower a month ago by Nulux Baths. These guys did an amazing job. The process was very smooth from start to finish and only took 3 days. I mostly interacted with 3 employees namely Sean, Jim and Israel. All 3 of them were kind, professional, skilled and knowledgeable. They executed my plan exactly as I wanted. I am very happy and satisfied with the outcome and would highly recommend them. Thank you Nulux for a job well done.

Is a Bathtub Replacement Right for Your San Diego Home?
The real question isn’t whether you can replace your tub—it’s whether you should.
If your current tub is cracked, stained beyond cleaning, or simply doesn’t fit your family’s needs anymore, a replacement makes perfect sense. If you’re tired of trying to make an old tub look presentable, or if you need a deeper soaking tub for relaxation, or even a more accessible design for aging in place, replacement is often the best solution.
But if your tub is structurally sound and just needs cosmetic updates, you might want to consider refinishing first. A replacement is a bigger investment and takes longer than a simple refresh, though it’s not always necessary for every situation.
The homes where we see the biggest transformation are those where the current tub just doesn’t work—where it’s too small for the family’s needs, constantly developing problems, or making the entire bathroom feel outdated. These replacements don’t just change how the bathroom looks; they change how you feel about your home’s most personal space.
