Bathtub Refinishing New York City – The Ultimate Update

If you live in New York, your bathtub has probably seen better days. It might be stained, rough like sandpaper, or just a color you hate.

It is the number one way NYC landlords and homeowners update their bathrooms because it saves time, money, and your back.

Why Choose Bathtub Refinishing?

An old cast iron tub weighs 400 pounds and must be broken with a sledgehammer to remove, plus touching the drain in old NYC buildings often leads to leaks and expensive plumbing repairs. Bathtub Refinishing avoids all the risk and mess while keeping your superior quality vintage tub.

Factory Finish

DIY paint looks like paint (brush marks and peeling). Our spray finish looks like a factory glaze.

Durability

Our industrial coatings are chemically bonded to the tub. They last 10-15 years.

Keep The Quality

Old NYC tubs are heavy and hold heat well. New tubs are cheap plastic. Keep the good one.

Eco-Friendly

Don't fill the landfill with a giant metal tub. Restoration is green.

01

Protect The Room

We mask off the walls, floor, and vanity. We use heavy-duty fans to vent odors outside.

Chemical Strip

We remove old caulk, soap scum, and any old paint. The surface must be raw and clean.

03

Repair

We fill chips, rust spots, and cracks. A smooth base means a smooth finish.

04

Prime & Spray

We apply a bonding primer and then the top coat. It is sprayed on for a glass-smooth look. We remove the tape and apply fresh caulk.

FAQs

Is "refinishing" different from "reglazing"?

No. It is the exact same process. Some companies say "reglazing" and some say "refinishing" or "resurfacing." It all means restoring the surface.

Will it look painted?

No. Because we use professional spray equipment, it lays down flat and glossy. It looks like a porcelain surface.

Is it slippery?

It can be. We can add a non-slip texture to the bottom of the tub if you want extra safety.

How do I clean it?

Use mild liquid cleaners (like scrubbing bubbles or dish soap) and a soft sponge. Do not use bleach or steel wool.
