Why Choose Professional Repair?

Replacing a tub because of one chip is like buying a new car for a scratch on the bumper. A replacement costs a lot more while a repair costs a fraction of that, and there is no demolition mess or dust. We are done in an hour or two while a replacement takes a week. Chip and crack tub repair is the common-sense solution for NYC living.

Color Matching

Bathtubs come in a thousand shades of white. DIY kits never match. We custom blend the color on-site.

Texture

We sand the repair flush. You won't feel a bump when you sit on it.

Durability

Our fillers are industrial strength. They won't pop out after a week of hot showers.

Waterproofing

If it's a crack, we stop the leak. DIY paint doesn't stop leaks.

It saves you stress

No demolition, no dust, no disruption to your neighbors. We mask the room, vent it properly, do the work, and leave it clean. In buildings with strict rules about contractor work, that matters.

Clean & Prep

We scrub the damaged area to remove soap scum and rust.

02

Fill

We use a special waterproof filler to fill the chip or crack. We overfill it slightly to make sure it's solid.

03

Sand

We sand it down until it is perfectly smooth with the rest of the tub.

04

Color Match & Spray

We mix the coating to match your tub and spray the area. We blend the edges so it disappears.

FAQs

Will I be able to see the patch?

We get it very close. If we just do a spot repair, you might see a slight difference in certain light because old tubs fade differently. If you want it 100% invisible, we recommend refinishing the whole tub.

Can you fix a hole that goes all the way through?

Yes. We use fiberglass mesh and structural filler to bridge the hole and seal it.

How long does it take?

A simple chip repair takes about 60 to 90 minutes.

Can I use the tub right away?

You should wait 24 hours for the patch to fully cure and harden.
