Porcelain (Ceramic) Tub Refinishing
Over time, porcelain tubs can start to look old and worn-out due to chips, cracking and staining. But instead of removing and replacing your tub, consider reglazing it with pour-on acrylic. It’s a popular option that’s cost-effective and convenient. You’ll avoid a long renovation project with possible damage to the floors and surrounding walls. And your like-new tub will cost a fraction of replacing it.
Is your porcelain tub damaged or discolored from years of use? Has it lost its shine? If so, its appearance can detract from the overall look of your bathroom. Ceramic tub refinishing using the pour-on method is an effective solution that can restore your tub’s original sheen and luster. Even tubs that have chips, cracks or peeling can be renovated easily and affordably.
Acrylic reglazing is an advanced process that is also eco-friendly. There’s no chemical smell, either during or after the process.

Porcelain, or ceramic, tubs are the most common types of tubs in most bathrooms. They are strong but can also be quite heavy, depending on the base layer. They have a classic style and smooth feel.
When they start to fade, discolor, or show damage, however, they are not easy to remove and replace. Removing them can cause damage to the surrounding walls or floor. Their weight can make them difficult and expensive to move, and the cost of a new tub can also be quite expensive.
The process can take longer than expected, which means that your bathroom could be in an extensive renovation process over a long period of time, causing inconvenience and stress for your family.
Since an unsightly bathtub detracts from the look of the entire bathroom, it makes sense to renovate it. But finding an option that is practical and affordable can be a challenge.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is porcelain tub reglazing?
Bathtub reglazing (also referred to as bathtub resurfacing or refinishing) is like giving an old bathtub a fresh coat of paint to make it look brand new. However, it goes much deeper than just a surface coating.
Before the reglazing material is applied, the surface is cleaned, any chips, cracks or damage are repaired, and it’s sanded until smooth. The acrylic is applied using the pour-on method, and you get a durable, long-lasting finish that restores the original radiant, smooth finish to your bathtub.
Why should I consider refinishing my ceramic tub?
Reglazing a bathtub is a more affordable and practical option than replacing it, which can be expensive and time consuming. It gives exceptional results with minimum hassle.
In addition, if you want to change the color of your tub, refinishing is an excellent option.
What is the material?
The liquid acrylic material we use is ArmoGlaze, which is safe for you, your children, and the environment, with near zero VOC status. It solidifies and is ready to use in 24 hours. The material and process are odorless and non-toxic during application and after.
This technology has been used since 2011 with outstanding result.
How long does the reglazing process take?
The entire process of preparing and reglazing the bathtub is quick and convenient, normally taking around 3 hours (depending on the complexity of the work, more complex cases may take up to 4 hours).
The time required for complete drying and hardening of the material is about 24 hours. During the work and subsequent hardening time, there is no smell. Since there is no demolition or extensive renovation, there is much less mess and disruption to your daily routine. Our experienced, professional technicians take the utmost care to leave the work area clean and neat when they finish.
How long does the reglazed finish last?
The professionally reglazed finish should last for 7 to 15 years with proper maintenance. It’s essential to follow the manufacturer’s required maintenance instructions in order to extend the lifespan of the finish.
Our pour-on method lasts several times longer than spray-on techniques and resists peeling.
Can a tub be reglazed more than once?
Yes, in most cases there are no issues with refinishing a bathtub more than once. However, if the bathtub has sustained substantial damage or wear, it might not be suitable for reglazing and may need to be replaced.
It’s best to consult with an expert for the best advice for your particular circumstances. Contact us for a free professional evaluation.
Is porcelain tub reglazing a DIY project?
Bathtub reglazing requires specific tools and expertise as well as a considerable amount of time, effort and attention to detail. For that reason, it’s generally not a DIY project.
To guarantee that the job is done right and to prevent damage to your tub, it’s advisable to hire a professional refinisher. Our proven pour-on application system performed by experienced technicians assures you will be satisfied with the high-quality outcome.
Considering the advantages
Bathtub reglazing using the pour-on method with acrylic material is an excellent alternative to replacing it.
-
Reglazing is affordable
Reglazing your tub costs a fraction of replacing it. You save money not only on the fixture itself but also on labor costs. And reglazing does not damage surrounding fixtures or structures, so there are no additional expenses for fixing other items in the bathroom.
You’ll be surprised how little an investment reglazing is, and you’ll have all that extra money to spend on other things.
-
Reglazing saves time
Replacing your tub can take several days, a week, or even longer. On the other hand, the reglazing process takes about 3-4 hours, and your tub is completely dried and ready to use within 24 hours.
Your bathroom won’t be torn apart while work is in progress; all areas around the tub are protected so there’s no damage to the walls, floor or other fixtures. The area is left as neat and clean as before the work was started. You’ll hardly know anyone was there – that is, until you see your like-new tub!
-
The transformation is beautiful
Your bathtub will have an elegant, snow-white finish that makes it look like new. Reglazing can repair even deep damage, and the smooth coating won’t have ridge, bubbles, or uneven spots.
If you prefer to change the color of your bathtub, pigments can be added to the material to give it a luxurious designer look.
-
The reglazed finish is durable
With proper maintenance, it can last 7-15 years, or even longer. The acrylic refinishing material has superior adhesion to porcelain, which means it resists cracking, chipping and peeling. It’s also strong enough to stand up to impacts from dropped objects.
-
It’s eco-friendly
With a near-zero VOC status, you don’t have to worry about the safety of your children or pets. There’s no unpleasant smell, so no interruption to your family’s routine.
And restoring your bathtub rather than replacing it keeps another large item out of our already overflowing landfills.
-
Bathtubs of any shape or size can be reglazed
Replacing a non-standard tub can be especially difficult because they can be unusually expensive. And if you’re not able to find the right new tub for your space, the added cost of adapting the bathroom to accommodate a different tub can quickly add up.
However, reglazing presents none of those challenges. Your existing tubs stays in place and the restored finish looks just like new.
Considering all these advantages, bathtub reglazing using the pour-on method is a top choice among professionals and property owners alike. Our professional craftsmen have extensive training and years of experience in renewing porcelain bathtubs. They take the utmost care to provide you with dependable, expert service at an affordable price.
Bottom line: Reglazing your ceramic tub is a convenient, cost-effective choice that gives you a beautiful, durable finish. You can improve the appearance of your entire bathroom while protecting the environment and keeping your family safe.

N SArtem did a phenomenal job on my tub! My tub was probably one of the worst he’s ever seen and had about 60 years of damage and terrible repairs. He went above and beyond with his work! We are renovating our terribly old bathroom and we came across some unrelated plumbing issues, and he generously offered to come back the next day to complete the job! I couldn’t recommend him enough, he was absolutely terrific!Joseph PezzollaI've had a few bathtubs refinished, this is by far the best. The technician was a gentleman who arrived on time and worked in a professional manner. I would recommend this company to my friends and would obviously hire them again.Reuben B.Artem was on time, courteous, and very clean.
