Should i cut the jacuzzi up to make room for a home theater room?


I have a massive old six seater jaccuzi in the room i want to make my home theater room. The way the room was built does not allow me to take out the wall in order to cart the tub out only way i see is to cut it into peices and take it out the door. Any thoughts?

I'd talk to a contractor ... s/he may be able to get it out by opening a wall and refinishing if you can sell the tub for more than the work would cost.

If you cut it up you simply have junk that you will have to pay to get rid of.

This assumes the room with the tub is the only option for a HT. With some thought you could probably use another existing room (living room, bedroom, garage, ...). Remember projectors don't take up much room and a screen can be hidden when not in use.
