Frequently Asked Questions
What types of bathtubs can you repair?
We repair fiberglass, acrylic, porcelain, and cast iron bathtubs. Whether you're dealing with chips, dings, cracks, stains, or structural damage, our team can restore your tub and even add skid-resistant coating for extra safety.
How do I know if my bathtub needs repair or full refinishing?
If the damage is localized — a chip, crack, or stain in one or two spots — repair is usually the right call. If the entire surface is worn, discolored, or showing widespread damage, refinishing may be a better fit. We're happy to assess your tub and recommend the most cost-effective solution.
Can you fix a shower that won't drain properly?
Yes. Poor drainage is one of the most common shower issues we handle. We level the shower pan floor and install a new fiberglass panel where needed. We also repair cracked shower floors using shower overlay techniques.
What countertop materials do you repair?
We repair Formica, Corian, and other laminate and solid-surface countertops. Common issues we fix include cigarette burns, hot plate burns, scratches, chips, and gouges. Our repairs are color-matched to blend seamlessly with the existing surface.
My whirlpool jets stopped working — can you fix that without replacing the whole tub?
Absolutely. We run a full diagnostic on your whirlpool or spa system to identify the problem, then provide you with an honest assessment and repair cost before any work begins. In most cases, the mechanical or plumbing issue can be fixed at a fraction of replacement cost.
Can scratches really be removed from glass without distortion?
Yes — we use a specialized process to remove scratches from standard glass, tempered glass, and mirrors with minimal to no distortion and no mess to your home.
My vinyl window frame is cracked at the corner seam. Is that repairable?
Yes, that's one of the most common vinyl window issues we see. When seams pull apart at the joints, we can restore the frame and match the finish, saving you the significant expense of a full window replacement.
Do you repair spas and hot tubs as well as indoor bathtubs?
We do. We repair cracks, chips, and surface damage on acrylic spas and hot tubs. Our before-and-after results speak for themselves — check out the gallery on this page to see what's possible.
Can scratched stainless steel sinks actually be restored?
Yes. Damage from utensils, pots and pans, steel wool, or abrasive cleaners can be repaired. We restore stainless steel to a uniform, attractive finish. We'll give you an honest assessment upfront so you know exactly what to expect.
How much does surface repair cost compared to replacement?
Repair is almost always significantly less expensive than replacement. A new bathtub, countertop, or window can cost hundreds to thousands of dollars once you factor in materials, labor, and downtime. Most surface repairs can be completed in a single visit at a fraction of that cost. Contact us at (843) 744-5575 for a personalized quote.
