Fiberglass tub and shower repair and refinishing in Austin, cracks and soft floors rebuilt first
Fiberglass and acrylic tubs crack where the floor flexes, and a cracked floor lets water under the tub. Few repairmen will touch them. We cut out the damage, rebuild the floor from below, fiberglass it, and refinish the whole tub over the repair.
Fiberglass tub repair for cracks, holes and floors that flex underfoot
Cracked floors
We cut out the cracked section, frame and deck the floor from below, fiberglass it and refinish the tub.
- A large repair can take two days
Soft floors
A floor that gives underfoot is injected with structural foam from below, then refinished.
Worn-through finish
Where the finish has worn through on the floor, we build the area back up, patch it and refinish.
- Non-slip surface on request
Holes and chips in fiberglass are a chip and crack repair. A coating from another company that is lifting is stripped back to the fiberglass, and the tub is refinished under our warranty. Every repair carries a 1-year warranty.
Fiberglass and acrylic tub refinishing, backed by the 5-year adhesion warranty
A different surface, a different preparation
Fiberglass and gel-coat surfaces need a different preparation from porcelain, and once finished they hold up like any other tub. The refinish carries the same 5-year adhesion warranty.
Repairs and refinishing together
The repair goes in first, then the whole tub or shower is refinished over it in any of our ten stocked colors. Ask for a non-slip floor and it goes into the finish. How refinishing works.
Fiberglass tub floor repair before and after: a cracked floor cut out and rebuilt
Shower pan repair and soft floors rebuilt with structural foam
Shower pans
Fiberglass shower pans get the same repairs as tub floors. We fiberglass cracks and holes, inject soft spots with structural foam from below, and refinish the pan and walls together. Shower refinishing covers the rest.
How long it takes
Repairs are done before the refinish, in the same visit when they can be. A large fiberglass crack repair can take two days. The tub is ready to use 24 to 48 hours after the finish goes on.
The warranty
Every repair carries a 1-year warranty and every refinished surface a 5-year adhesion warranty. A copy of the warranty and the care and use instructions comes with the invoice.

Common questions about fiberglass tub and shower repair
My fiberglass tub floor flexes when I stand in it. Can that be fixed?
Yes. Floors that give underfoot are rebuilt from below with structural foam and fiberglass, then refinished. It’s a common repair in fiberglass tubs and shower pans.
My fiberglass tub has a large crack. Is it ruined?
Almost never. Cracks are rebuilt with fiberglass and refinished over. A large repair can take two days instead of one, and it carries the 1-year repair warranty.
Can you repair the crack without refinishing the whole tub?
A small crack or chip can be repaired and blended on its own. A floor rebuild is refinished over. We’ll tell you which from your photos.
Do you refinish acrylic tubs too?
Yes. Fiberglass, acrylic and gel-coat surfaces need a different preparation from porcelain, and once finished they hold up like any other tub.
Can you fix a one-piece fiberglass shower?
Yes. The pan is repaired and the walls and pan are refinished together.
What does it cost?
It depends on the size of the repair and whether the tub is refinished too. How pricing works, or text photos of the damage to (512) 452-4352 for a price.
