IllustrativeRefinish or replace?
If the tub is solid, refinishing is usually the smarter choice.
When the tub or shower is structurally sound and the problem is the surface, refinishing gives you a fresh finish while keeping your existing tile, plumbing and walls in place.

Questions
Refinishing FAQ
Can any bathtub be refinished?
Most porcelain, enamel, fiberglass and acrylic tubs can be refinished if they're structurally sound. Cracked or failing tubs are better replaced, and we'll tell you if that's the case.
Can you refinish shower walls or tile?
Yes. Shower surfaces and many tile surrounds can be reglazed for a fresh, uniform look.
Can I change the color?
Refinishing is a great way to replace a dated colored tub with a clean white finish. Ask about color options when you call.
How soon can I use the tub?
The finish needs time to cure before use. We'll give you the exact timing for your job before we leave.
