Refinishing your bathtub with Beautiful Finishes will save you hundreds or even thousands of dollars over bathtub replacement. While a brand new bathtub may only cost $300, there can often be several hidden costs to replacement such as removal and disposal costs, plumbing alterations, and tile work. These costs add up, and you can easily end up spending nearly $2,500 to replace your bathtub. The cost of refinishing varies depending on the size of your tub.

First of all, to replace something you MUST first tear our the old items. When considering the cost of replacement you must consider tear out, cost of replacement item, labor for installation, not to mention the mess and time it will take. For example, normal costs for relacing a bathtub range from $1,500 - $3,000 and will usually take one and a half to two weeks to complete. Refinishing takes less than one day and will save at least 70% vs. replacement.

Liners are at least twice as expensive as refinishing and can take up to 3 to 4 weeks from ordering to installation. Click here to read the Miracle Method vs Bathtub Liners.

Unlike our bathtub refinishing process, which is done on-site and in one day, bathtub liners are manufactured off-site as one-piece, heat-molded units that are inserted over your original bathtub or shower surface and then "glued" in place with adhesive caulk. Bathtub liners leave spaces between the liner and the original surface where moisture can condense and stagnate. Cracks in the liner can occur, releasing moisture and lead to unsanitary conditions.

Refinishing costs vary across the country but refinishing will almost always be a fraction of the total cost of replacing a bathtub or ceramic tile surround. Replacing a bathtub and surround can easily cost $2000 or more when you consider the cost of removal, plumbing, setting new tile, etc. Refinishing can often save you up to 75% compared to the cost of replacement!

The top coatings we use contain solvents, which are necessary to make the finish hard and durable. We use ventilation fans to exhaust air from the work area outside, minimizing the fresh paint like odor. 80% to 90% of the smell will be exhausted within the first 4 to 5 hours and substantially gone within a day.

In our trade magazine "Finishing & Restoration" (formerly Professional Refinishing), the wisdom of restoring/refinishing antique and older furniture was discussed/debated at some length. Some opinions mirrored the public's general perception that restoration and refinishing are to be avoided. The misperception was fueled largely by a general misunderstanding that resulted from various airings of the television show "Antiques Roadshow" on PBS.

If you have attempted to clean the finish with normal household cleaners, and it is still stained and or dirty, the usual cause is that the surface glaze has been sanded or etched by harsh chemicals and/or abrasive cleansers. Because of this, there is nothing you can do to restore the shine yourself.

No. In reglazing , the idea is to start and end the process outside the water area. This prevents the possibility of water seeping under the new finish.

How you clean bathtubs depends on what they're made of. Enameled steel or cast iron tubs are very durable and resistant to most cleaning products. You can use heavy-duty cleaners and de-greasers to remove bathtub ring, and even a little scrubbing with mild cleansers from time to time won't do any harm. Be careful of harsh powdered cleansers and colored nylon scrub pads, though, and don't use heavy pressure with even a mild cleanser, or it will eventually dull the surface.

Once an individual has made the decision to be an organ and tissue donor and has joined the Donate Life California Registry, that individual's decision is honored. Family members cannot override that individual's decision to donate. At the time when donation is possible, family members will be informed of their loved one's wish to donate and walked through the process so they will know and understand how the recovery agency will carry out the deceased's decision to be a donor.

Every "live steel" group I've seen is a little ginger for my taste. If we used live steel someone would be pretty seriously injured, as that is what authentic weapons are designed for. You can really mix it up with safe properly weighted weapons in a manor that more realistically simulates heavy combat, than fighting gingerly with steel weapons. I guess it depends on wether the ability to fight with earnest and speed is more important, or the desire to handle steel swords.
