Use the pricing below as a guideline for your
refinishing needs. Every job is unique to us, and we bid them each
individually based on a variety of parameters, including location and scope of job,
as well as repair work needed prior to refinishing.
You have lots of color
choices. Although most people simply choose white or off-white, our refinishing process is available in just about any solid color that
Kohler or American Standard manufactures. We also offer the hugely popular
MultiSpec
colors, which give the appearance of Corian. MultiSpec colors are available in 84
color schemes, and are most often applied to wall tile and countertops (bathroom
and kitchen).
Estimates are free! Because we have over 25 years experience, most jobs can be quoted
sight-unseen by discussing it with you over the telephone. However, some items like fiberglass
or cultured marble tubs, enclosures, and countertops may require on-site estimates.
If we feel an on-site visit is necessary to assess the job, there is no charge.

*Unfortunately,
it is very common for kitchen sinks to get chip damage from silverware, dishes, and
pans being dropped inside. You can buy a new kitchen sink for less than the cost
of refinishing, so unless you have no choice but to refinish because your
kitchen sink is set in tile, marble, or granite, we recommend just buying a new
sink.
Additional
Options and Charges
If there is damage (chips, rust, nicks, cracks,
pinholes, etc.) on a surface that is going to be refinished, the damage must be
repaired prior to refinishing. Repairs start at $25, and can go up depending on
the severity of the damage. Our experience has been that most tubs do have
some damage, but is very minimal.
Part of the preparation before refinishing is removing the caulk between the
last row of tile and the bathtub, as well as protecting the immediate
surrounding area with paper and statically-charged plastic.
The day after refinishing, you have the option of
removing this plastic/paper and re-caulking the tub yourself, or we will come
back to do it for a return trip charge of $75. Taking the paper down and
recaulking is certainly something most homeowners can do, but most prefer that
we do it for them so it is a turnkey project.
Because your refinished tub is going to look brand new
again, most homeowners opt for a shiny new drain and overflow cover in the tub
after it has been refinished, and we will do this for you at no extra
labor charge if we are coming back anyway to take down the paper and
recaulk the tub. You can purchase the drain and overflow yourself that you want
us to install, or we can buy it for you. If you want us to buy it, the cost of
the drain and overflow is determined by the type of finish you choose (chrome,
brass, nickel-plated, etc.), and prices start at $25 for chrome, which is the
most common finish.
Necessary
Plumbing Work
Before bathroom sinks and countertops can be refinished, the plumbing
must be removed. Since we do not
have the plumber's tools or expertise to do this type of work, you may choose
to do this work yourself or use your own plumber.
If you have opted for a new drain and overflow cover
for your bathtub, please try to remove the drain several days
before we arrive, just to make sure that it can indeed be removed.
Sometimes, if a tub is very old and the drain has never been removed before, it
may not be possible to remove it without breaking it. In that case, you
should get a plumber to remove the old fixtures before we get there, or we can
refinish the tub with the old fixtures in place.
Payment Methods
Payment is due upon receipt of work done.
We accept personal checks and cash. For your convenience, we also accept
most major credit cards when processed through a Paypal account.
