We have many long-term customers that own homes or commercial properties in and around Ithaca. Some of our customers prefer us to work on a time and materials basis, and some prefer to have a bid. As the business owner, I am always the one to show up to look at and estimate a job. I have many long-term employees, and I also bring in specialists(architects, structural engineers, interior designers, etc.) on a as needed basis. We work out billing details for each project; for smaller bidded projects we typically do half down and then the last half on completion. For larger projects we break it down into more payment stages so our clients don't ever feel overextended but also so we have enough funding to operate in an efficient manner. We can carry financing on projects, yet typically that happens more frequently with commercial work. Payment plans are available. We offer a returning client discount.

"The two gentlemen that showed up the few days to complete the project were incredible. They were very pleasant to deal with and even made an effort to keep the noise level down as much as they could, given we had a newborn in the house at the time. They brought me in at each phase to keep me updated as to how things were going and if they had any questions/concerns. They were also well-versed in keeping the resulting mess from demo and such to a minimal, which is saying something, given the bathroom was on my 2nd floor and they essentially had to walk the length of the house twice, between the 1st and 2nd floors to get to/from. The end result was nothing short of incredible. My only regret is that I must not have been clear enough with the guy who came out to give the estimate, take photos, and such, as my old wall sconces and mirror remain...and it would've been a nicety to have an overhead light in the new shower. Aside from that, I would say that while the end result is quite nice, the cost was much higher than anticipated. It was over $20k for the bathroom job, for an area roughly 5'x10' and granted the fixtures and countertop are very nice, it's still surprising. I base that on the fact that our kitchen was also remodeled around the same time. That is a space of around 12'x20' and we had all new plumbing, new cabinets, new flooring, and new lighting placed....at a cost just over $10k. So, just be prepared. Kitchens and bathrooms are the most expensive as is the common knowledge, but I was expecting the costs for my reno jobs to be swapped. I can still solidly recommend Rebath. Just be prepared for a potentially larger bill than you're expecting."

Bathtub Restoration questions, answered by experts

Fiberglass tubs last between 10 and 15 years or more if they’re well-maintained. Proper care will help them last as long as possible. However, fiberglass bathtubs are prone to cracking, fading, and scratches over time. Bathtub installation by a plumber is one of the best ways to ensure your tub has the right support to last its full lifespan.

Refinished bathtubs typically need to be refinished every five years or so. Frequent cleaning and use will break down the finish and make cracks and chips appear more readily. Cracks and chips tend to grow once they begin unless they are repaired immediately. Ideally, you should refinish your bathtub before it gets old enough that refinishing isn’t worth the hassle.

If you don’t caulk your bathtub, then there won’t be a watertight seal between your bathtub and the wall tile surrounding it. As a result, water can seep into the wall and the floor and cause the perfect breeding grounds for mold and mildew. Not only does this require costly repairs, but mold can be harmful to those breathing it. 

Yes, professionals offer stamped, stained, or polished concrete resurfacing for enhanced aesthetics.

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.
