What is bath tub refinishing?

Thank you for visiting our web site and giving us the opportunity to introduce you to the little known concept of ”One Day Remodeling” also known as refinishing. Watch the video below to see for yourself how the process is done. Making a old outdated bathroom into a newly transformed beautiful bathroom with the help of a high quality reglazing job is what we do.

Before and after the refinishing process

The average home owner’s first thought when you mention the term remodeling their kitchen and bath is to “Tear out and Replace” the room. Since kitchens and baths are the rooms that usually have the most hard surfaces these are where the largest challenges and expenses occur.

Complete or Conventional Remodeling involves messy tear out of not only the fixtures but also removal of the floors, beams, walls, then rebuilding the rooms from scratch using new materials.
The benefits to these options are many, but because of the mess, daily lack of privacy, inconvenience and cost, this is not a viable option for most of us.

Fortunately there is now an affordable way to renew your kitchens and bathrooms without all the hassles, cost and inconveniences of conventional remodeling. This is also known as refinishing, resurfacing or reglazing. The concept and procedure have actually been around for about 50 years but is still mostly not known about to the average homeowner.

The PBRA Has dedicated this web site to informing and educating the general public about these new and exciting refinishing, resurfacing, reglazing options. Using our modern refinishing techniques, and the best materials our well trained technicians can help you realize a saving of up to 80% over the cost of replacement. This huge savings can be applied elsewhere in your overall remodeling plan thereby allowing you to either upgrade in other areas.
Stained, chipped, and hard to clean surfaces are unsightly and unhealthy and can create a negative impression to your guest, customers or clients. Refinishing will give the old fixtures a smooth glossy
or satin finish in a matter of hours. This non porous finish actually meets or exceeds manufacturer’s specifications for stain and acid resistance.Bathtub refinishing and Counter top refinishing is the most
cost effective way to remodel you kitchen and bath fixtures.

Using the latest in chemical coating technology, we can restore bathtubs to by applying a new surface and restore cultured marble, Formica, tile almost any hard kitchen or bath counter top to a Corion or Granite Like Surface.

It’s hard as rock and virtually impervious to chemicals our customers realize a saving of 50% to 90% plus the best warranty in the business.

Bathtub refinishing is good for the environment.

Bathtub refinishing saves landfills

The national Association of Home Builders (NAHB) estimates that the total waste generated from improvements or replacement home remodeling projects, to be 31.9 million tons of garbage per year. In the U.S., the waste coming from construction and demolition debris account for 20% of all landfill waste; 43 % (58million tons) of this total is from residential construction, demolition, and renovation projects. The number of landfills in the U.S.; is steadily decreasing – from 8,000 in 1998 to 2300 in 1999. Disposal costs are high, resources are needlessly wasted and we are running out of landfill space. bathtub refinishing is therefore very needed in saving the environment. Green remodeling, when applied with bathtub refinishing techniques, produce the result appreciated by those interested in green living. And creating new landfills is limited due to the protests of area residents near proposed sites.

As a result of landfill limitations, the disposal costs are soaring to an average of 2 to 5 % of the overall budget costs, or $511 per house for construction disposal. Alex Wilson, editor of Environmental Building News, describes construction and demolition (C&D) waste as “one of the most daunting challenges we face in the construction industry. Bathtub refinishing has always been good for the environment even before the going green craze. The reasons are many but cost is lower than replacing as the process involves the existing fixture thus avoiding the landfill. And with all the concerns about global warming, greenhouse gases and ozone levels, we see that surface restoration has a substantial contribution in saving the environment. Green refinishing saves some vantage and precious wood furnishings, cast iron bathtubs and antique claw foot tubs that have great value from clogging the landfills, but instead are reused.

Bathtub refinishing saves trees?

One of the greatest benefits of bathtub refinishing is the number of trees that are saved each year because the countertops and cabinets are refinished and not replaced. Trees take a long and wasteful journey from the forest to our homes. And throughout this journey the environment is polluted, energy resources are wasted and the greenhouse effect is increased.

Bathtub refinishing reduces carbon footprint

A carbon footprint is a “measure of the impact human activities have on the environment in terms of the amount of greenhouse gases produced, measured in units of carbon dioxide”. The idea is to have a way to measure how the activities of individuals, nations and organizations contribute to global warming.

There are many things each of us, as individuals, can do to reduce our carbon emissions. The choices we make in our homes, our travel, the food we eat, and what we buy and throw away all influence our carbon footprint and can help ensure a stable climate for future generations.
All activities involved in producing new fixtures impact the environment adversely. With bathtub refinishing, carbon footprints for individuals, hotels, apartments and government agencies are drastically reduced.

Using bathtub refinishing to reduce carbon footprint

The carbon footprint can be efficiently and effectively reduced by applying the following green steps:

Use Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) to accurately determine your current carbon footprint
Identify your hot-spots in terms of energy consumption and associated CO2-emissions.
Where possible, change from another electricity company to buying electricity from renewable sources (from wind turbines, solar panels or hydro electrical plants -or- from nuclear power plants.
Maximize your energy efficiency and, thus, reduction of CO2-emissions and reduction of other GHG emissions.Identify solutions to neutralize the CO2 emissions that cannot be eliminated by energy saving measures. This last step includes carbon offsetting; investment in projects that aim at the reducing CO2 emissions, for instance tree planting.

By using bathtub refinishing, you can do your best in reducing your carbon footprint as your best green alternative to remodeling.

A single mature tree can absorb almost 50 pounds of carbon dioxide a year and produce enough oxygen to sustain two adults. If every American family planted just one tree a year, it would remove more than a billion pounds of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere annually – which in 1992 was about 5% of the world wide output.
Trees absorb all kinds of pollutants, like sulphur dioxide from coal burning power plants, nitrous oxide from vehicle exhaust, and particulate pollutants from burning fuel, especially diesel fuel. A mature tree can absorb 120 to 240 pounds per year.
Trees are natural air conditioners that keep cities cooler. Just one large, healthy tree has a cooling effect that is equivalent to 10 room-size air conditioners running for 20 hours a day.
Trees cover can reduce asphalt temperatures by as much as 36o F and the interior temperature of parked cars by more than 47o F.
Trees reduce noise pollution by absorbing sound.
Trees reduce storm water run -off and erosion by up to 7%. In urban areas, this can save some of the tax dollars spent every year on installation, materials, clean up, and maintenance of water drainage systems.
Trees increase property values. Homes that are landscaped, especially with trees have a value that’s 5 to 9% higher than that of an equivalent homes that don’t have good landscaping.
Commercial real estate in wooded areas is more valuable.
Apartments and offices surrounded by trees have higher occupancy rates.

Frequently Asked Questions

admin — Mon, 15 Mar 2010 22:04:12 +0000

Q. How much will I save with bathtub refinishing as opposed to replacement?

- Refinishing your bathtub will save you hundreds or even thousands of dollars over bathtub replacement. While a brand new bathtub may only cost $350, there can often be several hidden costs to replacement such as removal and disposal cost, plumbing alterations, and tile work. These costs add up, and you can easily end up spending nearly $3,500 to replace your bathtub.

Q. How long does the bathtub refinishing process take?

- Our refinishing process typically only takes 4- 5 hours to complete. Your bathtub will usually be ready to use within another 1 to 12 hours after that, depending on factors like ambient temperatures and humidity. Why wait days or even weeks for a contractor to replace your bathtub when you can get the same results in only 24 hours?

Q. How long will my bathtub last?

- The durability of a bathtub refinished by PBRA members is very similar to that of a brand new bathtub. If properly maintained and no abrasive chemicals are used for cleaning it will last you many years just as a brand new bathtub would.

Q. Does the PBRA offer a warranty or guarantee?

- PBRA members offer an industry leading 5 year warranty for residential work and 2 years for commercial jobs. Most refinishing companies offer industry- standard warranties which are pro- rated, meaning that the warranty’s coverage decreases incrementally over time. Unlike these warranties, our guarantee covers 100% of any defects in workmanship or materials throughout the entire life of the guarantee.

Q. How do I care for and clean my refinished bathtub?

- Refinished bathtubs are often easier to clean than the original product. Make sure you use mild, non- abrasive cleaning products. Just as with a new bathtub, the finish or shine can be dulled by abrasive cleaners.

Q. Will my refinished bathtub look like it has been painted?

- This is a common myth in the bathtub refinishing industry. Your bathtub will not look like it was painted, since the material we use is more like a coating than a paint. In fact, our technicians pride themselves on the fact that it is quite difficult for an untrained eye to tell the difference between a brand new bathtub and one that has been refinished by a PBRA certified Company.

Q. Will my refinished bathtub smell like it has been painted?

- Our technicians come equipped with full ventilation systems for occupied units to expunge the fumes that do naturally occur with the use of solvents. Although you may notice a slight odor after we are finished, this typically is gone in a few hours.

Q. What other surfaces does the PBRA refinish?

- Besides bathtubs, PBRA Refinishers offer a wide variety of refinishing services for almost any surface in your bathroom or kitchen. Including tile, sinks, countertops and vanities.

Q. Will refinishing work on my kitchen countertops?

- Our refinishing process works on a variety of countertop surfaces, including laminates, Formica, tile, and cultured marble. It also saves you money; with our Stone- Finish™ imitation stone finishing system, you can have that natural- stone look for a fraction of the cost of actual stone!

Q. Do you repair cracks, chips, and scratches in my bathtub?

- Our technicians will fill in any chips or other imperfections in your bathtub or other surface prior to the refinishing process, making your damaged porcelain, acrylic, or fiberglass surface as good as new.

Q. What makes the PBRA different from other refinishing companies?

- The PBRA was established in 2002 and has a cumulative experience level with all the member knowledge base of hundreds of years. Some of our companies have been in business since 1938! This allows you to benefit from the largest refinishing data base in the world. No Franchise or single company can match this type of refinishing. We use only the best materials and if we can’t find one that out performs the competition. We will develop it!

Q. Can you refinish a tub that has been already refinished?

- Yes, a tub that has been refinished before can be refinished again a PBRA member will strip and clean the tub before we refinish it so the old coatings are removed.

Claw foot tub- Before & After

Bathtub refinishing benefits homeowners, Hotels, motels, apartments and other property managers by saving them money over replacement. For example, a new bathtub may cost as little as $300, but when you add the cost of tearing down that old bathtub, removing it, getting rid of the bathtub and all the fixtures, and then dumping all the mess including that heavy bathtub at the landfill. Bathtub refinishing benefits the environment.
Bathroom remodeling costs go up when you add the bathtub parts, tile work, flooring, carpentry and permits; you see the cost of replacing a bathtub can go into the thousands of dollars. So what you thought was going to be a simple bathroom remodeling job, turns into an expensive job. Bathtub refinishing is done without a tear out and that alone saves a lot of money and valuable environmental assets.

One contractor is involved in the refinishing a tub, thereby saving the consumer, time and the mess of trying to co-ordinate multiple sub-contractors on a single project. Now, compare bathtub refinishing to replacement. Replacing old bathtubs with new bathtubs, instead of refinishing, involves the services of more than one contractor. Replacement impacts the environment badly. On the other hand, bathtub refinishing services save the landfills.

An old bathtub that is damaged and cannot be efficiently cleaned is something that is not welcome in any bathroom. Many that have such old tubs consider purchasing a new one, but the total costs of installing a brand new tub are very high. An effective alternative would be to consider PBRA bathtub refinishing services. The refinishing of a bathtub will make it look new, it will be durable and give you up to 15 years of great service and in even in a custom color if you prefer

Not only is the savings an advantage, but also the fact that there is less mess, no tiles or flooring that must be demolished and nothing has to be taken to a dump and thrown away for a fee. This means that the Maryland bath tub refinishing method is also a lot quicker and you will be back in your tub much faster. The refinishing expert will come and prepare the tub for a reglaze.

Not only does the bathtub look as if it was purchased brand new, but it is durable and can be cleaned like a with most non abrasive cleaners.
