Learn More About Baltimore's Best Tub Refinishing

Have a bathtub refinishing-related question? We have the answer! Check out our FAQs below to learn more about our company and services.

  • What is refinishing?

    The process of refreshing the surface of a worn, damaged bathtub to a like-new condition.

  • Why choose refinishing?

    When considering the cost of replacement, you must also consider the costs of removal, replacement items, labor, and installation. Additionally, you can't forget the time bathroom remodeling typically takes to complete and the mess that gets left behind. 


    On the other hand, refinishing increases the value of your home. With more potential savings over replacement, refinishing is an ideal solution. Contact us today to get started with amazing bathtub refinishers in Dundalk, MD.

  • How long will the new finish last?

    With the proper care, you can expect bathtubs and enclosures to last for around a decade. Wall tile can last even longer because it receives far less wear. Furthermore, bathtubs can be refinished over and over again. Reach out to us today to request a quote for bathtub renovations in Dundalk, MD.

  • How long does the bathtub refinishing process take?

    We complete our work the same day. Be wary of any company claiming that a standard tub or something larger can be completed properly in "one or two hours." Our time frame starts from the moment we arrive to the moment we drive off.  


    If a single bathtub refinisher is using the standard industry technology and not cutting corners, it'll take longer than one or two hours from the time they arrive to the time they leave. We complete bathtub renovations Dundalk, MD can rely on.

  • How long must I wait to use my newly refinished surface?

    We suggest light usage after 24 hours from completion for bathtubs and enclosures. Floor tile and countertops can be used 72 hours after the last coat is applied. The warranty is voided if the refinished area is used or disturbed prior to this recommended cure time. Call us today to receive a free estimate and to get started with bathtub renovations in Dundalk, MD or surrounding areas.

  • Do I need to prepare anything before the technician arrives?

    Yes. It's easiest to provide the finest bathtub renovations in Dundalk, MD and surrounding areas when the space is properly prepared before our work starts.


    Any leaking faucets and loose tile or grout should be repaired before we can refinish. Additionally, the tub's water source and drain must be in working order. 


    You should remove any item you can move with your finger, such as soaps, shampoo, razors, toothbrushes, curtains, shower rods, hanging caddies, pictures, and similar items from the area.


    It's best if you can also remove any shower doors and tracks before we arrive. If fixtures such as toilets, vanities, cabinets, or pedestal sinks are in the way of refinishing the tile or tub, they should also be removed before our arrival. 


    It would be greatly appreciated, though not required, that you vacuum up the rooms and lightly clean them for sanitary purposes. A clean environment will also limit the amount of surface dust that will settle on the newly refinished surface.


  • Is there a difference between bathtub refinishing and bathtub reglazing?

    No. Bathtub refinishing, bathtub reglazing, tile refinishing, and tile reglazing are all describing the same process of applying a new finish over a hard surface. Make sure not to confuse this with applying new porcelain. Porcelain can only be baked-on in a kiln (oven). 


    Contact us today to learn more. Our expert bathtub refinishers in Dundalk, MD have a wealth of knowledge and experience to assist you.

  • Can bathtubs be refinished more than once?

    Yes. Refinishing can be re-applied multiple times once the existing coating is removed.

  • How long does the odor and smell last?

    We use low odor VOC resin. A vent system is used to remove all fumes during the refinishing process. The odor will dissipate in a couple of hours.

  • Is the process harmful to me, my family, or my pets?

    Our process is not harmful to people or pets. Our bathtub refinishers in Dunkalk, MD mask odors with a fragrance, then properly seal off and ventilate the areas we're working in. There will be a lingering odor for the first 24 hours. 


    Everyone has different sensitivity levels, so if you're still concerned about exposure, it's probably best that you're absent during the actual spraying process.

  • Do you warranty your work?

    Yes! We warranty all of our bathtub renovations in Dunkalk, MD and surrounding areas. We also warranty our wall tile work for three years against peeling or lifting of the finish on its own. Please note this is different from the expected lifespan of your finish. 


    Just like a car will outlive its warranty, your finish can last much longer with proper care. We don't cover chips caused by impacts from above. If a touch-up is required and falls within the limits of this guarantee, it's your obligation to contact us in a timely manner. 


    All work and materials will be supplied at no extra cost. If a problem does not fall within the limits of this guarantee, then you'll be subject to a service or repair charge.

  • Are there any care and maintenance steps I should follow after your service is complete?

    Yes! We provide long-lasting bathtub renovations Dundalk, MD appreciates, and we ask that you follow the steps below to help the work last as long as possible.


    -Keep the surface dry for 24 hours after work has been completed.

    -Take care when removing any masking tape and paper after 24 hours.

    -Reinstall any hardware such as drains, faucets, handles, etc. after 24 hours.

    -Make sure to avoid using bath mats with suction cups! Any suction cups can damage the finish.

    -When cleaning, use only a non-abrasive cleaner and remove cleaners thoroughly after use. Do not use cleaners with bleach.

    -Don't store soaps, shampoo, bath oil, shaving cream, or similar items on the bathtub or rim. Chemicals in these products can damage the finish over time.

    -Repair any leaky faucets at once. Dripping water will cause premature wear and rust around the drain.

    -Take care pouring any liquid drain opener directly into the drain, making sure not to spill any on the finished surface.

    -Maintain normal cleaning and usage cycles to allow surface dust to dissipate in three to four weeks. Do not pick surface dust off with your fingers.
