How do I fix a chip in a bathtub?

August 6th, 2011
Kira asked:


The bathtub in my apartment has had a chip in it since I moved in. I’ve called maintenence and they have come out to “fix” it twice but whatever they are using isn’t working. The white stuff they use chips off like paint flakes when I take a bubble bath or clean the tub. Is there anything I can buy to fix the chip myself?

How to repair ceramic in a bathtub?

July 6th, 2011
Meh asked:


I had some work done on my shower wall, and the repairman who came in to do the work was sanding the tiles in the bathtub. Somehow, he managed to leave a 6″ long gash at the bottom of my bathtub, and several chips along the sides. Is there any way to repair this, and if so, what do you recommend?

Thank you for your time.

Why is a sewer smell coming from my bathtub drain?

July 2nd, 2011
gg101 asked:


No other drain has this smell. Even when water is running in the bathtub/shower it stinks. Please help!
I looked in the three vent pipes on the roof and they do not appear to be clogged.

I took a picture of the drain pipes and was going to send it to “Starr”, but saw he/she doesn’t accept emails. If someone else knows about how the drain pipes are supposed to look, I will send the picture to you for review and suggestions. This is an old house.

Bobby asked:


Hi,
The guy who put the bathtub in my bathroom left a bigger gap between tub and plastic surround. He squeezed some caulk between it but it looks ugly and doesn’t seal well. Do caulk strips work? Is there another alternative to cover a one inch gap?

It’s an apartment bathtub and it’s one of the fiberglass kind. I’ve used bleach, diluted bleach, comet and mr. green. I’m using a dish sponge with the scruber side. It works a little but I’m afraid of scratching up the tub.

Hey all, weird question. I’m moving to a place with a separate bathtub and stand in shower. I have kids and they love the tub, but I’d like to have a detachable shower head in there so I can rinse their hair and whatnot. Is there anyway to convert the bathtub facet into a detachable shower head? Thanks!
