Restore that leaky shower base

Replacing a shower base can be a costly experience as it often requires tearing down the whole shower to get the old base out.

However if you have a leaky shower base you can always opt to restore the base instead of replacement. This is a professional level service designed to repair the damage and re-enamel the surface.

The major advantage of bathroom restoration over repurchase is the cost factor. Restoration can cost a fraction compared to buying a new one.

So who would use a service like this?

* Renovator. If your renovating your home on a budget, it makes sense to save dollars wherever you can. This will allow you to focus on other areas of your renovation.

* Selling your house. If your looking to sell your house and you don’t want people turned of with cracks in your shower base, restoring will give potential buyer who “Like New Look”.

* Low income earners. When buying new isn't an option due to your budget.

* Renters. If you have caused the damage and could impact on you getting your bond back then this is the cheapest option to you.

* Antique shower base. Sometimes new modern shower bases may not suit the bathroom and restoration may be the only option.

Whatever decision you go for whether it be new or old it is important to do some research to weigh up the pros and cons to each. A new shower base may leave you shower-less for a week, where restoration may just leave you without a shower for a couple of hours.
