Replacement is not only way to get a brand new tub. Try bathtub refinishing.
Undoubtedly, bathtub refinishing is the most economical way to give the fixture a brand new look.
WHY REFINISH?
IT SAVES TIME.
Process usually takes as little as six to eight hours and the surface can be used again in as little as one to two days.
Compared to replacing a tub or shower, which can often take up to a week or more. Not to mention the dirt, noise and hassle of having workmen tramp through your home during this time.
SAVES MONEY.
With traditional replacement, the biggest problems are involved with taking out the old bathtub. Parts of the bathroom tile, walls and floor must be torn away. The old plumbing is often in the wrong place to fit the new bathtub.
Add together the cost of the new tub, floor and wall materials, tiles, lumber, tile setter, carpenter and plumber. This kind of undertaking can easily cost $1500 or even more. With refinishing, your tub will get a brand new appearance for $350.
IMPROVES AESTHETICS AND HYGIENE.
Bathrooms, and, in particular, bathtubs and showers, need refinishing periodically for reasons of both appearance and hygiene. When a porcelain bathtub surface becomes worn, it becomes pitted or porous and allows stains to appear and dirt and germs to take hold and build up.
With durable coatings, fashionable colours, and attractive finishes to choose from, refinishing is a great choice. Not only will your old fixture look like brand new, it will be easy to clean and maintain as well.
Here are our colour samples and some before-after pictures of the refinished bathtubs.


As you can see, ceramic tile surrounding the bathtub refinished as well. It can be done at the same time using the same technique. Another $250 or so will make your bathroom remodeling more complete.


Moreover, other bathroom surfaces such as sinks, vanities, and floor tile can also be repaired and refinished to look like new. Please, visit appropriate pages to get more detailed information.
