When considering what to do with an outdated or damaged tub, countertop, sink or wall tile, refinishing is a smart choice. Refinishing can make the chips, scratches, stains and marring completely disappear. That outdated fixture can look new again. With a wide array of color options, you can easily fit your new decor.

Worn or outdated fixtures?... You have the choice of Total Replacement, Bath Liners or Refinishing.

Replacement involves very messy and costly demolition and replacement expenses. In many cases, it can leave you without a bathroom for WEEKS. Hidden costs of the remodeling project can increase dramatically due to unexpected plumbing and/or structural problems. Not to mention building permits and construction debris removal.

Bath liners are another alternative in bathroom remodeling. They cost on an average of 80% MORE than refinishing and can trap moisture between the bath liner and the original bathtub. This trapped moisture can fester into an unhealthy mold condition.

Refinishing/re-glazing in most cases is a “One Day” process, without the mess associated with replacement remodeling. The total cost is thousands of dollars less and the refinished fixtures look like new and are very durable. The refinished bathroom is usable within 24 hours.

Refinishing is also the “green” decision. With refinishing, old and worn fixtures do not end up in landfills. Instead they are renewed, providing savings to both our environment and your pocket!

For you do-it-yourselfers, this is one job best left to the professionals. Bathtub refinishing or reglazing is not a do-it-yourself project. DIY kits incorporate the use of strong chemicals and materials that are beyond the skill and ability for most homeowners. These kits do not provide the strength and durability desired. DIY refinishing jobs commonly end up being redone by a professional refinisher. In addition, the cost of stripping a previously refinished tub is expensive, messy and hazardous to the health of the refinishing technician. For a successful and safe refinishing, seek out the professional.
