WE UNDERSTAND YOUR CONCERNS

Is bathtub repair worth it? Honest answers

“Can scratches and chips really be repaired invisibly?”

Yes. With specially developed materials, we match the colour, texture and gloss exactly to the existing surface. Whether enamel or acrylic – when carried out professionally, the repaired area is barely noticeable.

“Is the repair permanent – or will it just peel off again?”

Our bathtub repairs are permanent under normal use. We do not use DIY store fillers, but our own materials, which we have been optimising for 40 years. In addition, there is an 8-year guarantee against peeling and yellowing.

“Is it worth it, or should I just buy a new tub?”

Replacing a bathtub quickly costs €2,000–€4,000 and leaves you with a construction site. Bathtub repair starts from around €450, is completed within a few hours, and involves no mess. For localised damage, it is almost always the smarter choice.

“Can't you just repair a bathtub yourself?”

DIY repairs with kits from the hardware store are almost always visible: colour differences, unevenness, poor adhesion. Professional materials and 40 years of experience make the difference between "patched up" and "like new".

Not sure which type of bathtub you have? No problem – we will clarify this during the free inspection.

ALSO FOR SHOWERS

Repairing shower trays and shower bases

A chip caused by a dropped shower head, a crack in the acrylic, or a dull, stained surface: We also repair shower trays and shower bases on site, without removing them.

  • Chips and impact damageThe area is filled, sanded, and sealed in the colour of the shower tray. This applies to enamel, acrylic, and mineral cast surfaces.
  • Cracks and holesFor acrylic and plastic, we reinforce the area before sealing it. It is important to ensure that no water can get under the shower tray.
  • Dull, rough, or discolouredIf the entire surface is affected, the shower tray receives a new coating, optionally with an anti-slip finish.

You should not continue using a cracked shower tray for long: If water seeps into the substructure, a minor repair can turn into water damage. More about the new surface can be found on the page Coating bathtubs and shower trays, more about safe footing at Anti-slip finish.
