How long does it take to refinish a bathtub?

It typically takes two to three hours to refinish a bathtub, depending on the size and condition of the tub. A previously refinished tub or one with a DIY kit on it can take longer.


Can you paint a bathtub?

Bathtubs are not typically painted because the paint will chip and peel over time. A better option is to have them refinished, which involves cleaning and resurfacing the surface with a durable finish.


What is the difference between refinishing and reglazing?

For all practical purposes there is no difference! Bathtub refinishing and tub reglazing are just different terms for the same process.


Is Fiberglass Tub Refinishing Possible?

Yes... it's a softer surface than porcelain or baked-on enamel but can be done just as effectively with the same great final results! We can also do chip repair and repair cracks in a fiberglass bathtub. A bathtub repair can save you from the cost of replacement, in just a few hours, and save money.


How long will the refinishing last?

The finish should last for at least 10 to 15 years if properly maintained. Abrasive cleaners and scouring pads should be avoided, as they can damage the finish. Regular use of a non-abrasive cleaner and a soft cloth should keep your bathtub looking beautiful for years to come!
