Get matched with top bathtub restoration pros in Columbus, NE

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.

A peeling bathtub is not a good thing. It’s a sign that the finish is coming off, and continued exposure to water and cleaning products can continue to damage the finish and eventually the underlying structure of the tub. What starts as a few chips or flakes can worsen into large chunks peeling off.

Don’t let the following items sit in your sink, or you’ll end up with a stain:

• Tea bags

• Wet cloths 

• Sponges

• Hair dye

A bathtub liner can be a good idea if your budget is your top concern when planning a bathroom remodel. Installing a new bathtub liner can give your bathroom the look of a complete renovation without the high price tag. But, it’s somewhat of a band-aid fix and won’t work for all homes, like if you have a freestanding tub.
