Bathtub Restoration & Repair vs Replacement

A bathtub is a relaxing thing to have in the bathroom. After a stressful day, a nice warm bath is a great way to unwind. 
Over time your tub may start showing wear and tear. This article will address some of the main 
concerns most bathtub lovers will ask about fixing their bathtubs.

Why Repair a Bath Tub When You Can Buy a Replacement?

When you factor in the expenses of the demolition, disposal of the tub,  new plumbing, setting new tiles, and all other renovation needs after a tub replacement, you could be left with a bill well over $3,000. Considering all the recent supply shortages and inflation, Tub Refinishing is the way to go if you are on a budget. 

What is Bathtub Restoration?

During years of use, bathtubs accumulate scratches and lose coloration. Tub restoration consists of removing and repairing those spots and scratches, leaving your bathtub with a fresh new coat.  ​

What is Tub Repair?

Tub repair includes washing the surface area and applying a solvent. It will then be neutralized, engraved, and sandpapered. Bathtub repair, when done appropriately, will give your bathroom a new vibe by making it look cleaner and brighter.

What is Bathtub Refinishing?

After bathtub repair, your tub will be refinished with a new coat. Depending on the client, the new coating can be a totally different color.  
When done correctly, refinishing will give your tub a long-lasting, durable coat for up to 20 years.   Refinishing should be done by trained refinishing contractors as they utilize a particular chemical called Aliphatic Acrylic Polyurethane Enamel. This job can be quickly finished in a day, so you should have your bathtub in less than a day.

When Should I Consider Buying a New Tub?

Buying a new tub is necessary once your bathtub has developed major rust damage and large surface cracks that are beyond repair. If you are uncertain as to whether your tub can be saved or replaced. Text us a picture, and we will get back to you!
