BATHTUB REPAIR & Restoration Service
Bathtubs are shiny, beautiful, and look best when they’re polished. Unfortunately, they are also fragile and break easily. If you have cracks or other imperfections in your porcelain tub, look no further us! Bathtubs are the centerpiece of the bathroom and they’re also the amenity that requires the most repair, due to the fact they’re in almost constant contact with water.
Our bathtub repair services can range anywhere from fixing chips and cracks to refinishing poorly conducted paint jobs. We can repair all kinds of bathtubs even if they are fiberglass or porcelain material.
COMMON CAUSES OF BATHTUB CRACKS
There are three main reasons why cracks tend to form in, bathtub materials which are lack of support or if the material is flexible, damage from heavy objects and damage from heavy cleaners. Some material such as fiberglass is highly flexible, meaning it will bend if weight is placed on it. If this sort of material is installed improperly or without additional support, overtime the weight pressure will cause cracks to form.
Cracks also tend to form when objects are dropped on the bathtub, creating small divots and dents that will eventually spiral out into much larger cracks and crevices over time. Lastly, with highly abrasive cleaners such as bleach, the finish and gloss of the bathtub can easily be eroded, allowing more moisture into the material, causing cracks. So why are cracks dangerous? Well, if ignored, even tiny cracks in your bathtub can eventually become much larger cracks down the road
Is full bathtub repair and restoration even possible?
Science plays a crucial role in the bathtub restoration industry. We only use the most eco-friendly materials to ensure a lasting finish.
On the other hand, do-it-yourself kits can be found in most hardware and home improvement stores. Brush often surfaces peel, bubble, or chip after one to two years, despite the kits’ low cost and ease of application.
In what ways do you feel comfortable with the safety and reliability of repairs?
For all of our refinishing and repair jobs, we only use non-toxic, low-odor materials. To minimize the effects of odors and volatile organic compound emissions, we comply with the country’s most stringent air pollution regulations.
When is it the best time to restore my bathtub?
We work with various materials, including porcelain, cast iron, steel, and acrylic. Damage to your tub from spills, scratches, chips, or cracks? We’ve got you covered there, too. If you want to update your bathroom but don’t want to shell out hundreds of dollars, a bathtub restoration is a great option. It’s important to note that bathtub restoration isn’t a viable option for those who want to alter the tub’s design, size, or placement or for those who have severely discolored tubs.
What are included in the bathtub restoration process?
The first step is to strip the bathtub of its old paint and give it a brilliant shine. Professionals use specialized tools for this step. Specialized chemicals are then used to finish the cleanup. The water in our tub is clear and sparkling now. Its exterior has been scratched and dented, but otherwise, it looks unblemished.
Professionals can cover up any imperfections with filling material. A fan should be used to keep air moving while the material dries, and sandpaper can be used to smooth out any rough spots. It’s not complete until the tub is primed. To protect the other surfaces, you should apply a special coating to them.
Finally, we paint it with a special coating impervious to moisture and scratches. It takes about 10 to 12 hours for a bathtub to dry completely, but once it’s done, it looks and feels like a brand-new one. Unlike some other household fixtures, bathtubs last for quite some time. If cared for properly, its finish could retain its luster for ten years or more.

Bathtubs are installed in houses before walls are completed. As a result, when there’s damage at the end of the building process, it’s not always possible to replace the tub.
