Clawfoot Tub Restoration and Repairs in New Orleans
Planning a way to restore your old clawfoot tubs?
Big Easy Bathtub offers reliable clawfoot tub repair and restoration in New Orleans area.
Instead of getting rid of precious, antique bathroom fixtures like your clawfoot tub, allow our team of professionals to make it functional and elegant again.
From restoring the same texture and finish color to enhancing the surface with a different design or color, we have your clawfoot tub repair and restoration needs covered.
Why is Claw Tub Repair & Restoration Better Than Replacing?
If your claw tub looks old already, you might consider replacing them with a new one. However, claw tub repair and restoration is usually the better option. Your tub may look old, stained, scratched, chipped, or rusted, but this cast iron tub is durable enough that it rarely encounters a significant amount of damage.
These tubs usually have a thin layer of porcelain that’s vulnerable to chips and scratches. If there’s damage, the cast iron may start getting rusty. This may affect the look of the tub, but we can restore the surface as well as its value for you.
Moreover, our clawfoot tub repair and restoration services in New Orleans can help you save money. You won’t have to hire a professional plumber. The results might be a disaster too.
For instance, removing your old tub may cause damage to the walls and floors. If this happens, you’ll have to spend more to replace the floor covering or mold the tiles that were damaged. Thus, it would be a waste of time, money, and resources.
The project may also take a couple of weeks or months to finish, especially if you choose a custom unit. If you’re using only one bathroom in your house, that means you’ll need some bathroom arrangements while the construction’s ongoing.
While you can buy new acrylic bathtubs, they’re not up to par with the classy appeal of a vintage clawfoot tub. Clawfoot tub repair and restoration services can also help you increase the value of your home by up to 30%.
Thus, if you think the holes, chips, or stains are signs you need to discard your clawfoot tub, we’re here to say it just needs a little bit of help from our talented craftsmen.
DIY repairs usually don’t have those polished, long-lasting, and perfectly glossy effects as professional bathtub repair professionals, so let us revive your beautiful and timeless clawfoot tub.
New Life for Your Old Claw Tubs
Claw tubs are usually the main attraction of your bathroom. Their iconic claw feet and cast iron and porcelain materials help make them look unique, attractive, and classic. However, your claw tub now might be old and nasty already. Perhaps, you’re thinking of discarding them as they seem to be unusable already.
Our team of experts can bring your old claw tubs back to life. Regardless of your clawfoot tub’s surface type, we have the right skills, knowledge, experience, and equipment to fix any cracks and damages.
While white is the most common color, we can help you repair and restore these unique antiques in different ways, designs, and colors. If you only want to save your tub from discoloration, we can do the job for you as well.
With our years of experience in clawfoot tub repair and restoration and several other vintage bathroom fixtures, you can expect your old and nasty claw tubs to be bright and look brand new again. Our wide range of repair and restoration services includes bathtubs, clawfoot tubs, cultured marble, holes, and chip repairs. We also handle porcelain, fiberglass, shower stalls, and more.
Our Repair and Restoration Process
Cast iron clawfoot tubs are usually exposed on the outside.
- Thus, we take the first step of eliminating old paint, rust, and corrosion.
- Then, the surface is filled and sanded, so they become smooth and glossy.
- Afterward, it’s sealed and refinished. This helps match or provide a contrast with the exterior.
You’re free to choose the color and design you want, and we’ll deliver any of your desired special exterior finishes.
Whether it’s repairing cast iron, acrylic, fiberglass, or cultured marble tubs, we follow a unique and thorough restoration process to make your tubs look exquisite again.
