The condition of your bathtub is important as it facilitates your being able to relax and sit in comfort. When your tub is not in good condition, it can cause your once luxurious and relaxing experience to be stressful and unappealing. Over time, your tub will experience different problems and they are all normal. Bathtub reglazing can fix most, if not all, of these common issues and you may want to consider having your tub refinished to restore it. Below, we will discuss some of the common problems to watch out for in your tub.
Bubbling on the Surface
When the coating on your tub was not applied correctly, bubbles can occur on the surface. These bubbles usually occur due to improper curing times in between the coating that was applied. If this has happened to your tub, the coating can be stripped and reapplied to smooth out the surface.
Chipping or Cracking on the Surface
As your tub ages, there is a higher chance that something will be dropped in your tub. Dropping something on the surface can cause the enamel coating to chip. The chipping then causes black marks to appear, and they stand out, especially on a white tub.
Cracking happens over time with older tubs. Continued use of the tubs lends them to wear down over time. The cracks can be on the surface or they can be deeper than that and lead to leaks. If the cracks are on the surface, they can be fixed during the reglazing process.
Staining and Discoloration on the Surface
If your tub’s overflow or drain has discoloration around them due to rust, this can be corrected through reglazing. These stains are usually not rust but they are usually rust-colored, so they mimic the look of rust. You want to make sure you identify where the leak is occurring and have it repaired; otherwise, the staining will return.
Fading occurs over time and what was once a bright tub may appear older and toned down in color. Reglazing can add shine and sheen to your tub again and you have the option to change the color too.
