### About Refinishing & Safety

#### Refinishing is an innovative and affordable way to renew bathroom and kitchen surfaces so they look just like new again.

**We use premium coatings that are EPA and FDA compliant as “low VOC”** **and rated generally safe for home interiors. Our coatings are non-toxic and can finish curing in as little as 4 hours.** After a brief 24 hour total waiting period, your new bathtub, sink, or shower is ready to use. The low VOC coatings we use for refinishing projects are Made in the USA by a manufacturer that specializes in this type of coating. We only use these specialty coatings that are made for bathtub and sink application. While many competitors may use inexpensive refinishing paints that are meant for cars or boats, we only use coatings manufactured for home bathroom and [kitchen refinishing](https://nufinishpro.com/services/kitchen-refinishing/ "Kitchen refinishing"). All of our technicians wear proper safety equipment and come equipped with ventilation devices. After spraying, there is no risk of exposure to the customer or surrounding household areas.

Whether performed on sinks, showers, or bathtubs, the refinishing process involves five main steps:

1. Sanding and removal of damaged surface layers
2. Spot repairs of cracks, holes, deep scratches
3. Application of primer layers
4. Application of topcoat layers
5. Curing period of 24 to 48 hours

### We stand behind our work

Depending on the number of fixtures that you are interested in having refinished, our technicians can complete jobs within the day in as little as 3 to 5 hours. We do ask that you prepare the area so that we have adequate space to move around and place equipment.

Common Questions

Everything You Need to Know

[How long does bathtub refinishing take in Anaheim homes, and can I use my bathroom the same day?](#how-long-does-bathtub-refinishing-take-in-anaheim-homes-and-can-i-use-my-bathroom-the-same-day)

The actual refinishing process takes 3-4 hours for a standard bathtub in most Anaheim homes, whether you’re in a vintage bungalow or a newer condo our technicians typically arrive in the morning and finish by early afternoon. However, here’s the important part – while we complete the work in one day, the coating needs 24-48 hours to fully cure before you can use your tub again.

We understand this is inconvenient, especially in Anaheim’s smaller apartments where you might only have one bathroom. That’s why we always schedule your refinishing for times that work best for your family’s routine. Many of our customers schedule refinishing on their days off. The good news is you can still use your toilet and sink immediately – we only restrict use of the refinished bathtub itself. After the curing period, your tub is ready for normal use and will maintain its beautiful finish for 10-15 years with proper care

[What’s the average cost of bathtub refinishing in Anaheim compared to replacement?](#whats-the-average-cost-of-bathtub-refinishing-in-anaheim-compared-to-replacement)

In Anaheim, professional bathtub refinishing typically costs between $450-$650 for a standard tub, while bathtub replacement runs anywhere from $3,000-$8,000 or more, depending on your bathroom’s configuration and the complexity of plumbing work required. The price difference becomes even more dramatic in older Anaheim neighborhoods where plumbing updates to meet current building codes can add thousands to your replacement costs.

Here’s what many Anaheim homeowners don’t realize: replacement costs go far beyond just the new tub. You’re looking at demolition fees, disposal costs (the city doesn’t just let you leave a 400-pound cast iron tub on the curb), potential tile repair or replacement, plumbing modifications, and often unexpected repairs once walls are opened. We’ve refinished tubs for landlords with properties throughout Anaheim who calculated that one bathtub replacement equals the cost of refinishing 8-10 units. For rental property owners in competitive areas near universities or resorts refinishing makes exceptional financial sense.

[Is bathtub refinishing messy?](#is-bathtub-refinishing-messy)

Well, that depends on who you hire to refinish your bathtub! NuFinishPro will protect the other areas of your bathroom by carefully masks off the work area to protect your home or business. After the job is done, and make sure the work area looks as good after we are gone as it did when we arrived.

[What does NuFinishPro charge for bathtub refinishing?](#what-does-nufinishpro-charge-for-bathtub-refinishing)

Every project is different. The price depends on the amount of work we need to do, the condition of your bathtub, the size of your bathtub, and the color you desire. Other things include, any previous work done on the bathtub, or were there any past repairs made. Call us for a free estimate or  [email us](mailto:cs@nufinishpro.com "Send us an email.").

[What is the expected lifespan of a bathtub refinishing project by NuFinishPro?](#what-is-the-expected-lifespan-of-a-bathtub-refinishing-project-by-nufinishpro)

The newly applied finish on the bathtub will last 5 to 10 years. The amount of daily use, wear, and tear will affect the life of the newly applied finish.

[What are my color customization options with NuFinishPro?](#what-are-my-color-customization-options-with-nufinishpro)

We can color match any solid color in the Benjamin Moore or the Sherwin Williams paint decks. NuFinishPro also carries a wide variety of  [granite-like](https://nufinishpro.com/color-customization-options/ "color customizing options") finishes that simulate the look of granite.
