Reglazing & Refinishing in Corona, CA

Crack Repair in Corona, CA

A cracked tub is more than cosmetic. Water can get underneath and the crack can spread. We repair hairline and stress cracks, reinforce the area, and refinish the surface so it is solid, smooth, and watertight again.

The Service

Solid and watertight again

Crack repair restores tubs and fixtures that have hairline cracks or stress cracks. We repair the crack itself, add structural reinforcement where the surface needs support, and then refinish so the result is a solid, smooth, watertight surface rather than a visible patch.

This is a different job than filling a chip. A crack usually means the surface is flexing or has taken an impact, so the repair has to address the cause, not just the line you can see. That is why reinforcement and a full surface refinish are part of how we handle it.

Saving cracked tubs around Corona

Fuentes Reglazing is based in Corona, California and serves Corona and the surrounding area. For many Corona homeowners a cracked tub feels like an automatic replacement, which means demolition, plumbing, and days of disruption. In most cases we can repair and refinish the tub instead, in about a day.

As a local owner operator business, the person who inspects the crack is the person who repairs it and stands behind the result. We handle residential work and rental and property turnover refinishing.

How It Works

How we repair cracks

We start by assessing the crack and what caused it. The area is cleaned and opened up so the repair can bond properly, then reinforced from behind the surface where support is needed, especially on flexing fiberglass tubs. The crack is filled and sanded smooth, and then we refinish the surface so the repair is sealed and invisible. Once the finish cures, the tub is watertight and ready to use.

1

Strip and Clean

Old coating, soap film, and buildup are removed so the new finish bonds to a clean surface.

2

Repair and Prep

Chips, cracks, and rust are filled and sanded smooth, then the area is masked and prepped.

3

Spray the Finish

Even coats are sprayed on for a smooth, glossy, durable surface in your chosen color.

4

Cure and Enjoy

The finish cures and your tub, sink, or counter is ready to use, looking brand new.

What It Costs

What affects the cost of crack repair

The biggest factors are the type and length of the crack and whether the surface needs reinforcement. A short hairline crack in a solid surface is a simpler repair than a stress crack in a flexing fiberglass tub floor, which needs support added before anything else. How much of the surface we refinish afterward also shapes the job, since a full refinish gives the most seamless result on a visible area.

Even with reinforcement and a full refinish, the repair costs far less than tearing out and replacing the tub. Quotes are free. Send photos of the crack through the contact form or call and we will tell you whether it can be saved.

Can a cracked fiberglass tub be repaired?

Usually yes. Fiberglass tubs crack when the floor flexes, so we add structural reinforcement to stop the movement, repair the crack, and refinish the surface. Send photos and we will confirm whether yours is a candidate.

Will the repair be watertight?

Yes. A watertight result is the point of the repair. The crack is reinforced, filled, and sealed under the refinished surface so water stays where it belongs.

Is a hairline crack worth repairing right away?

Yes. Cracks tend to spread with use, and water getting under the surface makes everything worse. A hairline crack repaired early is a smaller, simpler job than a spread crack repaired later.
