I have a standard 60" x 30" bathtub with tile and a shower curtian. The tile and drywall are falling in. I am considering replacing the walls with a product that can be mounted directly to the studs. It is a rigid 3 piece interlocking tub wall surround made of fiberglass. it is made by a company called "ELM".

do any other companys make this product?

What brand and type of tub suround do you recomend.

I just installed a Sterling shower, it appears to be well made. I got it based on the recommendation of others, it was a little more expensive then most ($400). They have a website you can check out.

I went to the website, thet have some nice looking tub/shower combinations. But I did not see any tub surounds to use with existing metal tubs.
