My vanity is UGLY, what are my replacement options?

February 9, 2012 By miraclemethod

Whether your vanity is old and outdated, damaged, or just plain UGLY, you know you have to do something about it. An ugly vanity can be quite the eyesore in a bathroom, and it’s time to consider your options to restore beauty to the smallest room in your home.

Replacement is one option, but because replacement requires removing the old vanity, possible replacement of the surrounding wall tile or covering, plumbing work, and then installing the new vanity, replacement could be a rather costly and messy solution.

The good news is there’s a much more affordable option – have Miracle Method refinish your bathroom vanity. Our process will save you up to 75% over removal and replacement and is a great option for laminate, tile, or cultured marble surfaces. We can even refinish your sink… and the entire job will take less than two days!

The Miracle Method refinishing process can extend the useful life of most bathroom fixtures and surfaces 15 years or more. The process includes the repair of any damage, so you’ll have a bathroom vanity that looks and feels like new!

Additionally, we have lots of color and texture options available for bathroom vanity refinishing. You’ll be amazed by our beautiful Natural Accents stone-look finishes, which give a designer appearance to your bathroom vanity.

Why deal with the hassle and expense of replacing your ugly old bathroom vanity when you can refinish? Visit the Miracle Method website to learn more. You can use our online locator to find the franchise closest to you, or call 855-212-7337.

Pros and Cons of Granite Countertops

September 15, 2011 By miraclemethod

Granite countertops have become quite common in high-end homes over the years. Granite comes in a variety of color options and with so many unique patterns, granite countertops easily become the focal point of kitchen remodels. This natural stone product is also quite durable, which is another reason so many remodelers and interior designers like to use it.

However, granite is a rather expensive material that can cause the price of a kitchen remodel to skyrocket. There’s very little room for error when working with granite, and granite countertops require regular maintenance and care to ensure that they continue to look good.

If you find yourself debating whether or not to choose granite countertops for your kitchen, take a look at some of the pros and cons of granite countertops to help you make your decision.

Pros

  • Granite is heat resistant.
  • It is also resistant to cuts and scratches.
  • Natural stone patterns create a one-of-a-kind look.

Cons

  • Granite is a porous material, meaning there are small holes in this material that are prone to harboring bacteria.
  • Granite requires regular sealing.
  • Granite is the most expensive option compared to other countertop materials.
  • Granite can be stained or discolored by common items such as citric juices.
  • It can be difficult to match the seams between the slabs of granite.
  • Granite is difficult to repair if damaged which can leave costly replacement as the only option.
  • As a natural stone, a few granite varieties contain high levels of radiation and radon.

For those who have determined that granite isn’t the right option for their kitchen, Miracle Method offers a cost-effective alternative called Natural Accents. This high-tech coating offers the wonderful look of stone that many desire, but without the expense and maintenance that granite requires. Visit our website to learn more about this great alternative for your countertops.

The countertop on the right has been refinished with Natural Accents. Would you be able to tell the difference between a Natural Accents countertop and a natural stone countertop?

Before and after bathroom vanity tile refinishing from Miracle Method.

If your bathroom vanity has seen some wear and tear over the years, there is no need to replace it. Unsightly scratches and stains on your vanity and bathroom sink can all be repaired through the process of refinishing.

When you choose Miracle Method to refinish your vanity, you will actually save about 50 percent or more over the mess of removal and replacement. Furthermore, the more unique and intricate your bathroom vanity is, the harder and more costly it will be to replace it.

If you have tile, cultured marble or Formica® countertops on your vanity, refinishing is often the best option. Refinishing can extend the life of your vanity and sink for 15 years or longer.  When it comes to colors, most homeowners are chosing Miracle Method’s new  Natural Accents™ which are available in over 30 designer colors.  The overnight transformation is incredible!

Granite Countertops or Natural Accents that look like Granite Countertops?

July 22, 2011 By miraclemethod

Granite countertops look amazing, but they are expensive, can be unsanitary, and difficult to repair if they are chipped or cracked.

What if you could refinish your existing countertops to look like natural stone?  Well now you can with Miracle Method’s Natural Accents!

Here are side-by-side photos of a laminate countertop before and after refinishing with Natural Accents.  Looks impressive, doesn’t it?

Natural Accents are only offered by Miracle Method.  Recently developed, these hi-tech resins can be applied to any countertop and quickly harden to provide a totally new look.  Available in over 20 designer colors, Natural Accents provide the appearance of natural stone, but without the extravagant cost of granite.  The durability of Natural Accents is remarkable and guaranteed against any delamination for 5 years.

Granite is hard enough to cut on, but miroscopic holes and pits can also hold bacteria that can be unsanitary and even contaminate food. Granite also requires periodic sealing to prevent discoloration and staining. Worse, if a heavy pot or pan ever accidently chips your granite, it can be difficult or even impossible to repair.

Natural Accents creates a new, seamless, non-porous surface for your existing countertops.  While you should always use a cutting board or a hot pad to protect your counter, you will find that Natural Accents will provide years and years of service with standard care and cleaning.  Should your countertop ever be damaged, it can be repaired while avoiding the significant cost of replacement.

Save your money, time and construction mess by selecting our Natural Accents finishes. Remember, too, that most kitchen countertop jobs are completed in just 2 days!

By the way, did we mention that Natural Accents will save you money?  How much….the average kitchen countertop refinished with Natural Accents often costs $1200 or less.  The average kitchen countertop installed with granite can cost anywhere between $2,500 – $5,000.

Make Miracle Method your first choice for your kitchen counters. Call 855-212-7337 to get your free estimate today.

Refinishing Countertops and Do-It-Yourself Painting

April 13, 2011 By miraclemethod

Here at Miracle Method, we’ve seen a lot of homeowners attempting to paint their countertops only to be extremely disappointed.  The sad truth is that Do-It-Yourself (DIY) projects for painting countertops rarely get results that stay bright and add years to your countertop.

Many of the DIY kits require ineffective surface sanding, and utilize cheap epoxy topcoats that yellow over time.

Countertop surfaces presents different challenges to get new finishes to adhere, look good, and provide many long years of service. The key to any good refinishing job lays in the use of hi-tech primers, acrylics and clear coats, and getting them to fuse together into a new surface.

For professionally refinished countertops, there are no shortcuts.  At Miracle Method, we use a proprietary seven-step process to repair and restore a countertop.

Our Natural Accents Stone Finish is a great example of an inexpensive, professionally-applied countertop solution.  Not only does the Natural Accents Stone Finish look like a granite countertop, but creates a surface that is seamless, non-porous, heat and scratch resistant and repairable if damaged.  Natural Accents Stone Finish is also FAST!  The entire process only takes 48 to 72 hours, not weeks.

If you are considering painting your countertop, don’t do it yourself!  Check for a Miracle Method location in your area, or call our toll free locator number 855-212-7337 to find the Miracle Method office closest to you and request a free estimate.  We feel that once you have all the facts, you’ll understand why painting a countertop is not a Do-It-Yourself project, and why Miracle Method is the best choice for refinishing your countertops.
