How much does it cost to refinish my tub and tile compared to a complete bathtub liner process?

By

One question we are often asked is how refinishing a tub and the surrounding tile compares to installing a bathtub liner system and what the difference in cost is. As you’ll recall from one of our previous posts, bathtub liners are sheets of PVC plastic or acrylic that are molded to the shape of an existing tub, and then glued into place.

Bathtub liners are relatively expensive, costing as much as $1,300 – $1,500 just to cover up a tub. Add in a wall liner system to cover up the surrounding walls and the cost can climb well above $3,000… which approaches the cost of total replacement!

Along with the initial cost, bathtub liners can cost you in the long run, too. Over time, they can develop leaks between the liner and the old tub, and any water that seeps through can lead to mold and mildew. Plus, tub liners can be damaged and do wear out. Both of these factors can cause a need for the tub liner to be replaced, which isn’t easy since liners are glued down at the point of installation.

Refinishing your bathtub is a much more cost effective solution than using a bathtub liner. The Miracle Method refinishing process is often 30% – 50% cheaper than covering up with a liner system. With refinishing, your tub and tile will look like new again and you will enjoy your restored tub and tile for many years to come.

Why waste money on a tub liner when you can restore, refinish, and save money?

My countertops need to be replaced, what are my options?

By

When your kitchen countertops become outdated or damaged, it’s time to make a change. The first solution one might think of is to completely replace the countertops with a brand new surface such as Corian or Silestone. While new countertops may seem like a valid option, the replacement process takes up anywhere from seven days to a few weeks and is quite costly – and those factors alone may cause some consumers to re-think that decision.

Another option is to refinish your old countertops. The Miracle Method process is a great option because refinishing repairs any damage and restores the existing surface to a like-new appearance, as well as extends the life of the countertops up to 15 years or more. Additionally, refinished kitchen countertops are repairable, guaranteed, and can be used in just a few days after refinishing.

Miracle Method offers a wide selection of colors and texture options, so you can match your existing décor. You can also have the look of stone with Miracle Method’s revolutionary product called Natural Accents at a fraction of the cost of a real stone countertop.

The biggest advantage of refinishing, by far, is the savings when compared to replacement. Countertop refinishing usually saves homeowners between 30% and 50% over the total cost of replacement!

We invite you to visit the Miracle Method website to learn more about the option of countertop refinishing. And if you are ready to refinish with Miracle Method, use our online locator to find the Miracle Method franchise closest to you.
