The Benefits of Bathtub Refinishing

Is your bathtub beginning to show signs of age? Do you cringe at the stains and chips from years and years of use? Before you begin to save up your hard-earned money for a new bathtub or complete bathroom remodel, consider bathtub refinishing from Richmond’s own Virginia Restoration Services.

Here are just a few reasons why you should choose tub refinishing:

1. You save money. Bathtub refinishing is a less-expensive solution to your home improvement needs. You could easily put thousands of dollars into replacing a bathtub, and a tub replacement costs significantly less. This Old House quotes bathtub replacements to be between $2,000 and $3000, but “refinishing a tub, on the other hand, costs $200 to $450.”
2. Refinishing takes less time. Replacing a bathtub involves many man-hours taking out and putting in the new tub. There’s plumbing work to consider as well as the aesthetics. Bathtub refinishing, on the other hand, takes less than a day to complete the job, and you can use your bathroom within 24 hours.
3. You can customize your tub color. Virginia Restoration Services can tint the specialized coating with any Sherwin-Williams® color, giving your bathroom remodel that made-for-you feel. You can also choose to coordinate your entire bathroom by also refinishing your tile or sink.
4. You get to keep your existing tub. The benefit of many older bathtubs is that they have unique character, especially if you have a claw foot or another ornate design. Don’t throw out that old bathtub just because it’s old; tub refinishing can restore its former beauty with very little hassle in less than 24 hours.
