How do I know if my tub is fiberglass or acrylic?

• <div><p>There are a few ways to check whether your tub is fiberglass or acrylic. If your tub is a color other than white, then your tub is likely acrylic (as fiberglass tubs are usually white). Check to see if there is discoloration on the bottom of the tub, because if it’s yellowed, then you can be fairly sure it’s fiberglass.</p><p>Also, fiberglass tubs have thinner edges and are cool to the touch. Acrylic, on the other hand, is either room temperature or warm to the touch.</p></div>

Q: What maintenance is required after surfaces are resurfaced or refaced?

• <div><p>Routine cleaning with light detergents, avoiding abrasives, and timely addressing chips prolong the new surface appearance.</p></div>

Q: How do you identify rust in your bathtub?

• <div><p>Rust should be pretty easy to identify in your bathtub, as it has a dark red, brownish color, and it sits on the surface of the porcelain. It usually appears around metal fixtures, like under your tub spout or shower head, and you might also find it under metal shaving cream cans or razors that you leave sitting on the tub or a shower shelf.</p></div>

Q: What causes a bathtub to chip?

• <div><p>Bathtubs chip for a number of reasons. The primary cause is simply an accumulation of accidents or direct impact from objects over time. Heavy items will do this, like an iron, but so will lighter objects, like shampoo bottles, especially if you drop them from high enough. </p></div>

Q: Is it less expensive to reglaze a tub or replace it?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s substantially less expensive to reglaze a tub than to replace it. The average cost of reglazing a bathtub is between <b>$400 and $700</b>, but that range may be higher based on where you live and the type of tub you have. Meanwhile, if you want to replace the bathtub, you&rsquo;re looking at $2,000 to $9,400, with the average close to $5,700. </p></div>
