How to repair a bath quickly
You’ve spotted a scratch, chip or crack in your bathtub. The kids are at school, but they will need their early evening bath later on and it’s already lunchtime. Let’s look at how to repair a bath quickly, so your daily routine isn’t impacted, and your children can still have their bath.
Quick bath repairs
Remember that new toy your little one was playing with last night in the bath? Or maybe you or your partner dropped something in the bath?
Many people mistakenly think they have to replace the whole bathtub when a crack appears, but this is really not the case! Why spend hundreds of pounds on a new bathtub when you can do a simple, quick fix and your bathtub can be ready to use the same day?
And more importantly, why wait to get a bath replaced, which will only cause more disruption to your children’s bath time. Bath repairs are also an eco-friendlier solution, as sending an old bathtub to landfill just adds to our increasing environmental problems.
You’ll need a bath repair product that can be used on bathtub materials. The most common material for a bathtub in the UK is thermoformed acrylic, but you might have a bath made from fibreglass-reinforced polyester or even porcelain-enamelled steel. If your bath is made from one of these materials, then it’s really easy to fix if you have the right type of rapid repair bath kit to hand. There are lots of products on the market that claim to offer quick fixes for bathtubs. But be warned, only one product can actually achieve this type of repair in a matter of hours.
