Bathtub cracks - How to fix it?
Hello BP Community!
I really need help with this! I attached a picture below. The cracks are on the soap holder portion of the bathtub. It is a one piece bathtub located on the second floor. It was installed by the builder prior to building the bathroom.
Can this be fixed? I am worried that it could cause leaks down the road. Any assistance you can provide would be greatly appreciated!

Typically yes they can be fixed. Google Bathtub repair companies in your area and there are companies that will come out and fix it.Just realize that the cost is going to be 1/2 - 2/3 the price to just put a new tub in....
Its like a broken appliance nowadays, are you just better off replacing it.
