Tub Repair

The modern plumbing market is filled mainly with acrylic bathtubs. The different configurations, sizes, stylistic solutions, as well as attractive appearance and excellent characteristics of these products allowed them to become the market leaders, replacing the usual cast iron bathtubs with enamel coating.

Acrylic tubs are durable and can preserve not only the integrity of the surface but also the beauty of the appearance for many years. However, even though the acrylic surface is much stronger and more durable than the enameled surface, it has its own service life.

As a rule, such bathtubs retain a uniform white color, gloss, and smoothness for about 15 years. Improper care, aggressive cleaning, and violations of operating rules can shorten this period, but it is very difficult to permanently damage the acrylic surface.

Removing Chips on the Acrylic Bath Before and After

If deep scratches appear on the acrylic bathtub over time or from careless use, its gloss has disappeared, and its uniformity and smoothness have been violated, this can still be corrected. An experienced craftsman can also repair more serious damages to the acrylic tub.

With the help of special materials, cracks and even holes can be repaired, provided that all actions will be performed by a person with the necessary experience and qualifications.

The Advantages of Acrylic Bathtub Restoration

Acrylic is characterized by its high strength and resistance to damage, due to its plasticity. In cases where the brittle material cracks, the acrylic remains intact. For this reason, most cases of acrylic bathtub restoration involve restoring their uniform white color, perfect smoothness, and shine. This can be done using the same material that the tub is made of.

The restoration process is simple and fast. To cover the surface with pouring acrylic, the tub does not need to be dismantled. This means that the tiles or other finishing elements will not be damaged during the work.

If there are no deep damages and complex defects on the surface of the product, then the entire process will not take the specialist more than 4 hours.

Simple preparation for reglazing involves sanding the bathtub with fine sandpaper to a matte state, as well as cleaning and degreasing its surface.

The use of acrylic is possible on any material. It always provides a high-quality coupling and holds securely without detachments. Both cast-iron and acrylic bathtubs can be covered by pour-on application method.

Being elastic and fluid, the material is distributed over the surface, filling all possible irregularities and forming a perfectly smooth and even layer.

Can Acrylic Bathtub Be Resurfaced?

Acrylic bathtubs are strong and reliable, serious damage to them is a rare phenomenon. While adhering to simple operating rules, the integrity, gloss, and uniformity of the surface are preserved for a long time. However, if accidents still happen, then the same liquid acrylic will help restore the integrity of the product.

With its help, you can eliminate deep cracks, potholes, and holes that have been pushed through. Depending on the depth and area of damage, the specialist applies additional materials for repair, but the main tool that returns the integrity, strength, and durability of the bathtub remains pour-on application method.

If the crack or other damage on the surface of the acrylic bath is deep, but not through, then before applying the acrylic specialist will need a special mastic for the repair, which fills the cracks, strengthens the damage site, not allowing it to become larger.

Before using the material, the crack is cleaned, treated with a degreaser and antiseptic, and thoroughly dried. After that, the defect on the surface is filled with mastic.

The material hardens quite quickly, while the specialist prepares the composition for application. Resurfacing the entire bathtub by pouring method will make its repair even more reliable and durable, and there will not even be a hint of former damage i.e. the surface will be smooth and uniform.

If the acrylic tub has hole damage, in addition to mastic, you will also need a special reinforcing mesh for its repair. This will restore the strength of the frame of the product.

Such works should be entrusted only to a specialist because many nuances should be taken into account to get a high-quality and long-lasting result.

Acrylic Bathtub Repair

The use of the refinished bathtub will become possible after the liquid acrylic has completely solidified. It takes up to 24 hours, depending on which type of material was used, as well as on the temperature of the air in the room. The restored acrylic tub in terms of maintenance and usage, as well as in terms of durability, appearance, and other characteristics, does not differ from the new product, and the cost of work is much cheaper than its purchase and installation. Reasonable savings, long service life, and perfect surface appearance are the advantages that restoration of acrylic bathtubs gives.
