Whether it is an enamel, stone or acrylic surface, over time they all become subject to abrasion, scratches and wears, peeling and rust. This is facilitated by improper care, incautious usage, bashes and surface impacts that damage the integrity of the coating. Also a constantly humid bathroom and the use of cleaning agents make the existing defects even more noticeable.

Another problem with modern shower bases is cracks. This occurs if a thin, low-quality acrylic product was used or errors were made during the installation the framework.

If a characteristic crunch is heard when the shower psn is under load, then the appearance of cracks will
occur in a matter of time. Such a base can be repaired, strengthened, and installation errors corrected. The most important thing is not to wait for the moment when visible cracks appear.

Shower trays made of artificial stone, steel or cast iron are by definition more durable, but their glazes
are also susceptible to defects. Whatever base is installed in your shower enclosure, WhiteTubs Chicago technicians can refinish it. Our experts offer two restoration options: epoxy enamel or liquid acrylic.


Enamel shower pan repair

This material is only suitable for enameled cast iron or steel products. It gives a fairly thin coating of no more than 0.04 inch, which can improve the appearance of the surface for a while.

Epoxy enamel takes a long time to dry, has a strong odor and cannot guarantee a perfect glaze. This option of reglazing a shower pan is recommended only if low cost is more important to the client than a high-quality durable result.

Shower reglazing using pour-on application method

Liquid acrylic is a much more versatile material. It is suitable for reglazing any surface and provides a more reliable repair. Due to the thick consistency of the composition, as well its unique application technique, it covers bathroom wares with a thicker and more durable layer.

Shower refinishing with liquid acrylic is a surface refurbishing method whose result lasts for long time. The high adhesion of the material prevents the appearance of detachments, and its elastic structure prevents the formation of wears even if the base is hit quite hard.

Refinishing with acrylic is carried by a special technique. The finished composition is distributed by pouring it onto the surface, which results in an even, smooth coating that replicates the layout of the base of the shower enclosure.

This feature eliminates the irregularities that brushes leave, which means that after refinishing, the base gives an impeccable gloss with even reflections and smoothness without micro deformations.


Compound is unmatched when comes to time taken to complete the work. It takes 3-4 hours for the preparatory stage and pouring plus 24 hours to dry the material. This is the fastest possible refurbishing, for which the tenants of the apartment will not experience any inconvenience.


Shower pan refinishing using pour-on application method is more expensive than epoxy, but much cheaper than buying a new one. We provide quality service and materials, comply with deadlines and provide guarantee for work done and materials used.
