        "text": "In older Denver-area homes, tub removals frequently reveal hidden issues such as corroded galvanized plumbing lines, settling-related subfloor rot, or uneven floor joists. Because many regional homes feature non-standard alcove dimensions or dated framing, standard off-the-shelf pans may not fit cleanly. An experienced local contractor will inspect the structural framing and subfloor immediately after tub removal, leveling joists and replacing damaged wood before setting a custom mortar bed or tile surround to guarantee long-term stability and leak prevention.",
