"This was a big job, removed cast iron tub and installed handicap walk in shower. Trevor, Jesse and Lucas went above and beyond making sure the job was done right. We enjoyed having them in our home and it was done in one day. And it all started with a great consultation with Bre. We are very happy!!!!"

Bathtub Restoration questions, answered by experts

No. You should let the caulk completely dry before you expose it to moisture. It’s safest to wait at least a full day before showering where you’ve recently caulked. Showering before caulk is fully dry can lead to a poor seal, meaning water can seep into cracks and cause damage and mold growth. 

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.

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.

Typically, you should wait two to three days to use your bathtub after it has been reglazed. This allows the epoxy resin to cure properly. However, the exact waiting time can vary depending on the materials used. Some quick-dry epoxy kits may cure in as little as 12 hours, while others might have a four-hour cure time, potentially allowing for same-day use. To ensure the epoxy dries correctly, ventilate the bathroom well during the curing period. Always check the manufacturer’s instructions and consult with your reglazing professional for specific guidance on when it's safe to use the tub.

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.
