Reasons for having your bathtub refinished

By

If your bathtub is worn out, damaged with chips and cracks, hard to clean, or an outdated, ugly color and you’re thinking about replacing it, consider an alternative that will save you time and money. With bathtub refinishing by Miracle Method, you’ll not only save thousands of dollars, but also days and even weeks of messy demolition and replacement. According to the National Kitchen and Bath Association, the total cost to remove and replace a bathtub is an estimated $3,000 or more, but Miracle Method’s bathtub refinishing will cost a fraction of that.

Miracle Method Bathtub Before and AfterAs if saving time and money weren’t enough to seal the deal, here are some other reasons to choose bathtub refinishing:

  • Longevity. Using the same care and maintenance recommended by new bathtub manufacturers, a refinished bathtub should easily last 10 to 15 years or more.
  • Durability. Because Miracle Method uses the most technologically advanced coating available, our finishes can withstand daily use and do not require special cleaning. However, just like a newly manufactured bathtub, refinished bathtubs can be chipped or scratched if subjected to extreme abuse.
  • Aesthetics. The deep gloss created by our hi-tech acrylic coatings looks so much like new porcelain that 9 out of 10 people cannot tell the difference between our refinishing and a brand new tub.
  • Superiority. No other refinishing company uses the same steps that Miracle Method uses. From the diligent cleaning process to the use of our one-of-a-kind MM-4 bonding agent to the advanced coatings and final detailing, Miracle Method really stands apart.
  • Experience. Miracle Method is the largest, most experienced refinishing company in the United States and has been the leader in refinishing techniques for nearly 30 years.

Having Miracle Method refinish your bathtub will not only save you time and money, but will also give you peace of mind that you’ve chosen a quality service to make your bathroom look and feel like new.  Ask about our 5 year warranty. To find a Miracle Method closest to you, visit our online Locator or call 855-212-7337.

What can be done with the ugly tile around my bathtub?

Bathroom tile refinishingReplacing bathroom tile just because it’s an ugly color, there’s broken tile, or the grout needs repair is quite costly, messy and rather unnecessary.

Think about what it takes to replace tile: it will have to be chiseled off of the wall and the backer board replaced, which is very messy. You will also need to protect the bathtub from any falling tools or tile. It will take a lot of patience and a good tile saw to make sure the tile goes in flush. Furthermore, you must count the time that the bathtub will be out of commission. Why not avoid this headache and call Miracle Method for a free tile refinishing estimate?

With Miracle Method, you can have that that ugly or broken tile and grout refinished to look like new in just two days! We use a process of cleaning the tile, and applying our MM-4 bonding agent along with several hi-tech top coats to give you a durable and beautiful new look. And don’t think you have to just stick to white tile! Miracle Method offers a wide range of colors and finishes including our impressive Natural Accents™ stone look finishes.

Refinishing tile will save you up to 75% over the cost of replacement. If you want to avoid the hassle and expense of replacing your unattractive tile, consider calling Miracle Method at 855-212-7337 or visit our website to find a location near you.

Did you know that among the many benefits of Miracle Method surface restoration, we are also a green remodeling alternative? According to the National Association of the Remodeling Industry (NARI), for each square foot of new home construction, between 3 and 5 lbs. of waste is generated. When it comes to remodeling, those numbers jump drastically, up to 75-115 lbs. of waste per square foot.

We can restore damaged bathroom fixtures, tile, and even countertops, preventing the need to replace these items and reducing the volume of waste entering our already bloated landfills. We can also change the color of these surfaces, so you don’t have to choose between a wasteful bathroom remodel and living with embarrassingly dated fixtures and tile work.
