Bathtub Refinishing FAQ

How much does bathtub refinishing cost in Cleveland?

Bathtub refinishing in Cleveland starts at $475 for a standard white finish. Add-ons like custom color (+$200), stripping a previous refinish (+$50), or anti-slip finish (+$90) change the total.

How long before I can use my bathtub again after refinishing?

The standard cure time is 24 hours from the final coat.

Does bathtub refinishing smell during application?

There is a mild solvent odor during the spray. We use HEPA fume extraction and ventilation so most homeowners barely notice. It fully dissipates within a few hours after we leave.

What warranty do you offer on refinishing?

A written 5-year warranty on standard refinishing, with a transferable lifetime limited option available.

Can you match a custom color?

Yes. Custom colors require a $200 deposit to cover material and freight, and typically add 1–2 days to scheduling.
