People always want their bathroom to look sparkling clean and fresh, but worn out bathtubs, showers, sinks, and countertops don't get us that desired look. The cost of replacement frustrates us and we end up living with tired worn out spaces.
No need to live with outdated, ugly, dirty, scratched, or damaged bathroom surfaces anymore. A new solution to that age old problem has arrived.
Resurfacing. Yes, repair, resurface, and renew those old spaces in your bathroom. Don't put up with ugly stains, chips, or outdated colors. Resurfacing is a fraction of the cost of replacement. Replacement may even require demolition or removal of a wall. Often times a plumber and a licensed contractor are required to replace those outdated, dirty, stained tubs, showers, sinks, and countertops. Project coordination among professionals adds more time to job. Time you cannot afford to be without your bathroom.
Demolition, removal, and replacement of tubs, showers, sinks, cabinetry, and countertops are costly as well. It is much less expensive to repair and resurface your existing bathtub, shower, sink, countertop, or cabinets. Resurfacing tubs and showers takes three to four hours. They can be used twenty-four (24) hours after completion. Downtime is two days. Countertops can be resurfaced in two to three hours and can be used twenty-four (24) hours after completion. Bathroom wall tile can also be resurfaced.
The process requires cleaning each surface with special industrial strength cleaners that are not found in local home improvement stores. After cleaning, the surfaces must be further prepped to allow bonding with a high quality manufacturer direct primer. After primer is applied and dried, a quality manufacturer direct top coat is applied in layers to ensure a beautiful and durable finish. A non-skid surface can be added to tubs and showers.
Various colors exist for resurfacing tubs and showers. You may chose to go with the existing color or do a complete color change. The pink, blue, or olive green just doesn't work anymore.
Countertops too may be resurfaced in various colors or even textured with a new product called StoneFleck. StoneFleck adds depth and detail to your countertops, sinks, or tile walls. The look and feel of stone can be achieved. An upgrade to your existing surface is much less expensive than replacement.
Make sure to seek out manufacture trained professionals in your area that are certified in resurfacing process and materials procedures. Though the cost of resurfacing is a fraction of replacement cost or refacing with acrylic inserts, it is still important to select a qualified professional to ensure a quality resurface.
