Miracle Method provides on-going training for franchisees and technicians

By

To provide the best kitchen and bath surface refinishing for our residential and commercial customers, Miracle Method conducts exclusive continuing education workshops for franchisees and their technicians.  This continuing education is a big part of why Miracle Method is the nation’s Number 1 surface refinishing company.

Hands-on training is always a part of Miracle Method training sessions.

Chuck Pistor, President of Miracle Method, said “These workshops not only add to the technical ability of our franchisees and their technicians, but also help maintain the gap between ourselves and our competitors. No one else in the surface refinishing industry offers continuing education programs.”

We present three annual workshops, each of which covers the latest techniques and developments in the surface refinishing of bathtubs, tile, fiberglass, acrylic, cultured marble, and laminate bathroom and kitchen surfaces. Additionally, we’re also introducing an exclusive application system for our Natural Accents® stone-look finish, which  makes the refinished surface look even more like natural stone. The first two workshops were held in Cleveland, OH and Sacramento, CA in September and the final 2012 workshop was held October 5-7 in Corpus Christi, TX.

“The workshops were a tremendous success,” according to Pistor.  “The response from our franchisees to our new products and techniques was outstanding and our customers will be able to take advantage of new refinishing options.”  When refinishing is completed by a trained Miracle Method technician, customers can rest assured that they have invested in a quality service.

Should I paint or refinish my countertops?

By

A few years ago, you replaced your kitchen cabinets and wanted to update the look of your countertops, too.  Your budget would only stretch so far, so you put that in the plans for the future.  As luck would have it, unexpected expenses came up and you’ve had to dip into your countertop fund for them.  Now, you’re looking for a cost-effective way to give your countertops that long overdue facelift.

One friend suggests painting them yourself, but you’re a little hesitant.   Painting your countertops will be very time consuming, requires a lot of patience and equipment, and you’re not so sure the end result will be the smooth, durable surface that you need. Paint brushes and rollers don’t always reach every nook and cranny and your DIY skills could spell DIY disaster!

Instead of painting your countertops, consider what Miracle Method Surface Refinishing can do for you. Our professional countertop refinishing process involves the following:

  • A two-step cleaning to remove all dirt, grease and other contaminants from the surface
  • Repair of any damage, burn marks, knife cuts and missing grout or laminate pieces
  • Application of a proprietary bonding agent to assure that the new surface will stick
  • Use of a color tinted primer coat
  • Two coats of one of over 30 Natural Accents colors applied using a high tech HVLP sprayer to assure a smooth, even finish
  • Two coats of a non-yellowing, waterproof clear acrylic in your choice of satin, semi-gloss or gloss
  • Final tear down of all masking materials and clean up of the project area

The end result will be a beautiful, durable surface that will give your old countertops an extended usable life, all for a fraction of the cost of replacement!

Like many of us, you will be playing host to family and friends at various points throughout the summer, whether it’s for a quick weekend visit or for a week’s worth of fun. In preparation, you’re getting your house ready, cleaning the guest rooms and bathrooms and it’s then that you notice the guest bath is in need of a makeover… but there’s no time for a remodel.

Miracle Method can help you spruce up your bathroom before your summer guests arrive. We refinish bathtubs, showers, and vanities to a like-new look and feel for a fraction of the cost of a remodel or removal and replacement, and best of all, most jobs can be completed in two days or less. Whether your tub needs a new color, your tile surround needs updating, your vanity refreshed to match, or a dingy shower restored to its original sparkle, Miracle Method can get your home ready for guests in no time and for less than you’d expect.

Before: An ugly, stained, and dated pink makes this tub the eyesore of a guest bathroom.

After: The tub shines in a beautiful glossy white thanks to Miracle Method.
