Is your bath, sink, spa or shower base in need of some TLC, but are you put off by the cost of a new bath and not keen on the hassle of a re-enamelling job? A relatively new concept called bath inserts may just be the solution you have been looking for. These are essentially moulds that are custom made to fit your existing fixture, and can either be fitted by an installer or DIY. 

What Is A Bath Insert? 

Bath inserts are an acrylic mould which fits right into your existing bath, sink, spa or shower base and are made from a high quality, impact resistant acrylic. Your old bath is filled with a layer of foam, which provides the adhesion for the mould, as well as some useful insulation. This innovation has all the same strength and longevity as your old bath, including meeting all the relevant Australian Standards. It is primarily an alternative to re-enamelling, which while also cost effective is not able to remedy a rust, and is also liable to chipping, staining, scratching and peeling. 

Benefits Of A Bath Insert

The practical benefits of an insert are many and include: 

• Durability - fade and stain free
• An odour and dust free installation process
• The ability to install over structural damage such as rust
• Cost and time effective, with no need for plumbers or other trades
• Reduced impact on the environment, specifically landfill sites; and
• Improved hygiene
