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>

Will a chipped bath leak?

• <div><p>A chipped bathtub could leak over time if you don’t take care of the issue. A tiny chip isn’t a big deal but may eventually grow into a larger crack. As the months go by, the tub’s barrier against moisture becomes weakened, making it prone to leaking. Large chips can also cause the tub to rust and even crack in half.</p></div>

Is reglazing a bathtub worth it?

• <div><p>Reglazing a bathtub is worth it if your current tub is in good condition and needs to be refinished or reglazed to bring it back to its shiny, smooth glory. While battered bathtubs might need to be refinished, <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/should-you-refinish-or-replace-your-bathtub.htm">bathtub refinishing is worth it</a>, too, because it can make tubs with surface imperfections, shallow cracks and scratches, and staining look like new. Reglazing a bathtub is less expensive than refinishing, and both are less than the cost of bathtub replacement. </p></div>

Q: How much does it cost to fix a peeling bathtub?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-bathtub-refinishing-cost.htm">Bathtub refinishing costs</a> an average of <b>$460</b> and includes removing the finish, sanding or acid etching the surface, priming it, and applying an epoxy coating. After the coating cures, the bathtub should look as good as new, and the finish should last between seven and 10 years. Because bathtub refinishing requires hazardous chemicals, you should call a bathtub refinisher to do the job.</p></div>

Q: Are there environmental benefits to resurfacing instead of replacing surfaces?

• <div><p>Refinishing reduces landfill waste, minimizes resource extraction impacts, and uses fewer raw materials than new installations.</p></div>
