What Should I Do if My Bathtub Needs Repair?

When the bathtub in your Springfield home starts showing signs of wear and tear, it can be tempting to consider a complete replacement. But did you know that many common issues like chips, cracks, and scratches can be professionally repaired? At NU Tub, we specialize in bathtub repair, so your tub can look as good as new without the need for a costly replacement.

Minor Bathtub Repair

If your bathtub has minor damages like chips, cracks, holes, or scratches, don’t worry. You don’t have to replace your tub entirely. Our professionals at NU Tub can repair and restore bathtubs, showers, bath enclosures, whirlpools, and sinks to a like-new condition.

In most cases, an epoxy-type filler is used to mend the damaged area. We then conceal it using an airbrush technique. We do color matching at your home or business to make sure that the repair will seamlessly blend in with the rest of the tub.

Tubs are made out of different materials. At NU Tub, we can repair most materials, including porcelain, fiberglass, acrylic, cultured marble, and vitreous china.

Major Bathtub Repair

When you encounter significant damage or a structural crack in your bathtub, it can be stressful. However, our team has extensive experience in creating permanent fixes by applying fiberglass or vinyl inlays. We do this by creating custom-made inlays and expertly applying them to make sure they don’t crack or peel over time.

In certain circumstances, we can inject high-density foam or concrete under the bathtub floor before making the repairs to provide a stable solution. Our repairs are durable and long-lasting.
