Spend money or save money

 

Bathtub refinishing is undoubtedly a lower cost home renovation option than replacing it altogether. The combined cost of removing the old bathtub and installing a new one could be around $1500. Remember it’s not only the bathtub that you’re replacing; this major home improvement project may also include removal of wall tiles, sheetrock, or wet board, besides simply fixing the plumbing and drain system. This is not all, the labor and construction materials needed to replace the bathtub will take a big portion of your budget.

On the other hand, the overall process of bathtub refinishing can be much more reasonable. A standard bathtub refinishing project may cost you just a few hundred total. Isn’t that what you want?

Factors that Affect the Cost of Bathtub Refinishing

The city you live in indeed determines the cost of your bathtub refinishing. While Los Angeles and San Francisco homeowners may have to pay a huge amount, Sarasota or Manatee homeowners can get the same work done for a lesser amount. Additionally, major repairs, such as fixing chips, cracks, rust, and holes increase the cost of repairing.

Hire a Good Bathtub Refinisher

Always look for a reputable bathtub refinishing company like Total Koatings, so that you can get quality work.  Make sure of several things, such as (i) the company uses non-toxic chemicals, (ii) the company is licensed, insured & certified, and (iii) the company offers at least a 5-year warranty against cracking and peeling.

It’s recommended to get quotes from several companies to make your job easy. You can also ask for references from your neighbors, or friends, who recently have had similar services.

All in all, bathtub refinishing is a cost-effective and eco-friendly process. And once your bathtub is refinished, you can expect it to last.
