"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."

"I was really impressed with the experience working with Spicer Brothers for a new roof on a home built in 1994 that has hardly seen any improvements. Every step from the estimator through the installation went smoothly. When I met Dwayne on the job he was friendly, informative and helpful. His crew worked steadily and were finished well ahead of the estimated completion time. The new roof looks great and knowing the materials and workmanship that went into the installation I know I can rest easy for years to come."

"Their technicians were very professional and took ownership of my problem. They were not going to leave without getting the job done. This was not a easy job, took a lot of patience to get these drains cleaned out but they got it done! Highly recommend them and ask for Marc and Jaâ Kawan. Plumbingâ s dream team!"

"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

Rust should be pretty easy to identify in your bathtub, as it has a dark red, brownish color, and it sits on the surface of the porcelain. It usually appears around metal fixtures, like under your tub spout or shower head, and you might also find it under metal shaving cream cans or razors that you leave sitting on the tub or a shower shelf.

Yes. Common materials for Roman tubs are acrylic, fiberglass, cast iron, and stone resin. The choice you make can depend on various factors, including weight, cost, durability, style, heat retention, and aesthetics. Ultimately, it really depends on your space to determine the best option.

Yes, you can use Epsom salt in a refinished bathtub. The salt will not harm the new glaze finish chemically, although it may rough up the surface finish a bit. Consult a professional bathtub refinisher prior to using Epsom salt on your bathtub to ensure it won’t damage its finish.

While tubs are fairly sturdy, you may notice cracks or holes. This kind of damage can happen from someone accidentally dropping something heavy into the tub. You might also see damage if you drop something heavy into the tub over and over again (like your extra large bottle of body wash). While you might only notice a small dent at first, this can later turn into a crack or a hole.

Also, certain cleaners that are harmful to your tub can cause damage. And if you have a fiberglass tub, you might see cracks if it was not installed properly with the right support.

Bathtub refinishing is the overall process of repairing and resurfacing a bathtub, while reglazing is a key step within that process. The complete refinishing process includes cleaning the tub, protecting surrounding areas, removing the existing glaze, sanding the surface, applying the new glaze coating, caulking the tub, and replacing fixtures. A professional refinishing job can extend a bathtub's life by 10 to 15 years, whereas a DIY job typically lasts three to four years.
