The Tub Wizard

The most common reasons to refinish a tub are: outdated colors (avocado, pink, sea foam green to name a few), damage, rust and a dull finish. These are all remedied in just a few hours with our refinishing process. After refinishing, you have bathtub with a smooth glossy finish that will stay looking great for years and is easy to maintain.

Thinking about refinishing yourself? We strongly suggest you don't. Bathtub refinishing or reglazing is not a do-it-yourself project: It involves the use of strong chemicals and materials that are beyond the skill and ability for most homeowners and untrained users. DIY kits are limited in their strength, durability and the way they are applied.

Thorough preparation of the surface is critical to a beautiful and lasting finished product. The surface needs to be prepared so the topcoat will adhere permanently. Finally the topcoat is applied with a professional spray gun. The skill of our craftsmen mean the resulting finish will be durable, lasting and free of drips or streaks.

Choosing a refinisher is difficult. Make a poor choice and you could be in for trouble. We actually see a fair amount of newly refinished tubs with streaks or where the topcoat is peeling. The problems usually stem from improper surface preparation and low quality materials. Here are some things to look for in a refinisher.

I've used Don to refinish two bathtubs to date: The first had been painted by a previous owner of my house and the paint was peeling off in large sections. The second had a deep rust ring around the drain and needed some extra attention where the tub meets the wall. Both projects were completed quickly and affordably, and are now good as new!
