Bathtub Refinishing FAQ
How much does bathtub refinishing cost?
Standard Bathtub Refinishing starts at $495 for a standard-size white tub. Removal of a failed or previous coating is priced separately — text a photo to (216) 576-9871 for a same-day price. A final written estimate is provided after in-home inspection.
How long before I can use my bathtub again after refinishing?
Do not use, wet, wash, cover, tape, install accessories on, or place objects on the refinished surface for at least 48 hours. In cool or humid conditions, allow 72 hours or follow the technician’s written instructions.
What warranty do you offer on refinishing?
A ten-year limited workmanship warranty on residential properties and a one-year limited workmanship warranty on large-scope commercial projects, subject to the terms of our warranty document.
How long does a refinished or reglazed bathtub last?
With proper care, a professionally refinished bathtub lasts 10 to 15 years, and residential jobs are backed by our ten-year written workmanship warranty. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction-cup mats to get the full lifespan.
How do I clean a refinished bathtub or tile?
Use a non-abrasive bathroom cleaner and a soft cloth or sponge. Avoid abrasive powders, scouring pads, and letting harsh chemicals sit on the surface, and skip suction-cup mats. Treated gently, the finish stays glossy for well over a decade.
What is the difference between reglazing, resurfacing and refinishing?
Nothing; they are three words for the same process: restoring a tub, tile or countertop surface with a new professional coating instead of replacing it. Whichever term you searched, it is the service we provide.
Is it cheaper to refinish a bathtub or replace it?
Refinishing is dramatically cheaper, typically a small fraction of replacement cost, because there is no demolition, plumbing, or wall and floor repair. Most tubs are refinished in a single day. We provide an exact price at your free in-home estimate.
