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!

You’re not sure where it came from, and you feel as though you’ve tried every cleaner on the planet, but nothing is removing that stubborn stain. Your thoughts turn to replacing your bathtub since it is pretty old and tubs are relatively inexpensive. But then you remember all of the costs associated with replacing a bathtub, and that’s simply not in the budget. You need a cost-effective way to bring your tub back to a like-new look and feel.

Miracle Method Surface Refinishing offers just the solution you are looking for. Bathtub refinishing can save you up to 75% over the cost of replacement. And unlike the process of removing and replacing a tub, which would require a plumber and  weeks of renovation, our work is complete in 2 days!

Miracle Method uses a proprietary non-acid refinishing process that will restore tubs made of porcelain, fiberglass, acrylic, and even cultured marble to a like-new look and feel. Our technicians will clean the tub, repair any cracks or chips, and then apply our MM-4 bonding agent to create a solid bond between the old and new surfaces. Our hi-tech, durable coating will be applied using a fine-finish spray process. You’ll have a beautiful tub in a brand new color, and best of all, your tub’s usable life will be extended by 15 years or more!

Before: The bottom of the tub is dirty and dingy.

We will also install two ADA approved safety grab bars and apply a slip-resistant surface to the bottom of the bathtub.

If desired, we can also install a curved shower rod to provide more elbow room, a hand-held shower nozzle to make personal bathing easier, a tub chair to make bathing more convenient, and can even change the color of your bathtub and tile surround.

If you or one of your family members is currently struggling to enter or exit the bathtub, or if you simply want to address mobility issues you could face in the future, we invite you to visit the Miracle Method websitetoday for more information on our Miracle Method Easy Step® Bathroom Safety Package.
