"Blackburn Refinishing is phenomenal! James is very responsive and his attention to detail and pride in his work are incredible. We had our bathroom glazed 2 years ago. It still looks fantastic but wear and tear with 3 sons....the shower was cracking and peeling. James scheduled an appointment with me as soon as I called him and made all the repairs. It looks amazing AND he said it was under warranty and would not charge me for anything. I am so impressed! I highly recommend Blackburn to anyone considering a makeover at a fraction of the cost of a total bathroom redesign."

"I hired First State Bath for converting a bath tub to a walk-in shower. I feel so thankful to them from introduction through job completing. They listened carfully to my requests and proposed a small suggestion, but it turned out very special to my need. It was choice of 54" long instead of 60". It adds space for easy moving in the bathroom. It might have no impact to most people, but is very helpful and special in my situation. The project is worked out very well with on time, clean and high quality. They did great job at very reasonable cost."

"I absolutely love my upgraded bathroom! I had put it off because nothing ever gets completed on time but I was thrilled when in 1.5 days I had a brand new walk-in shower, toilet and floor! From a 60+year old tub with a surround and resurfaced that was updated 30+years ago to this beautiful bathroom. Perfectly done too."

"Brian came to our home to do a tub to shower installation. He was very respectful and reviewed what he would be doing. The project was completed within the time frame we were told. Again, he reviewed what he had done and how to properly care for the shower. It really looks great and we are looking forward to using it. Thank you Brian and rite window team. Respectfully Leslie Greeley Brewster Ma"

Bathtub Restoration questions, answered by experts

The process involves cleaning the surface, applying bonding agents or new veneers, and finishing with a protective top coat or polish.

You can resurface or reglaze your bathtub, and it’s faster and less expensive than replacing a bathtub. Plus, replacing a bathtub is an extensive and intrusive process that requires wall repairs. Refinishing is an excellent option if the old one is in good working condition.

There are also options to install a bathtub liner over your existing tub. However, if you’re seeking a new bathtub with new features, you’ll likely want to replace your tub.

While certain kits make DIY possible, professionals ensure durability and quality of finish, which is vital for high-moisture areas like baths.

As with any project, refinishing your bathtub presents pros and cons to consider, such as:

Pros

  • The job is typically quick, and your tub is ready within 48 hours.

  • Your bathtub looks new.

  • You don’t need to tear out the old tub and replace it with a new one.

  • You can customize it with the color of your choice.

  • You can’t tell the bathtub has been refinished.

Cons

  • Refinished bathtubs can be slippery.

  • Not all refinishing products are created equal.

  • You need to wait up to 48 hours before using the bathtub.

The difference between resurfacing and refinishing is that refinishing only works on solid surfaces that are in good condition, whereas resurfacing will restore a cracked or worn surface to its original, blemish-free state. Refinishing will leave you with a smooth and glossy surface you can’t get from resurfacing alone. If that’s the look you’re going for, contact a local concrete finishing contractor to achieve it.
