Bathtub Resurfacing & Tile Resurfacing NY

Bathtub & Tile Resurfacing is one of the best methods of bathroom remodeling at modest cost. Bathtub resurfacing & Tile resurfacing methods can save homeowners thousands of dollars in replacement costs. This article discusses the benefits of choosing resurfacing over replacement, and Bathtub and Tile cleaning tips.

Benefits of choosing to refinish your bathtub and tile

Saves money- The cost of replacing a bathtub can be as much as $3,000. The cost of replacement is so high, because it also includes the costs of tearing out the old one. However, the cost of resurfacing or refinishing a bathtub can be between $200- $300 and will save you 80% of the money you spend on replacement. Comparing refinishing to replacement can give you a more vivid picture of how wasteful bathtub replacement is.
Saves time- Bathtub replacement can take weeks when you consider the time it takes to rip out your old tub, and install the new one. This is because it takes more time for plumbing and cleaning the extra mess. However, it can take just 3 to 6 hours for bathtub or tile resurfacing, depending on the condition of the tub. This process also makes it possible for you to use your bathtub the next day, instead of upcoming weeks.
Longevity-Results can last up to 5 years if the job is done professionally.

Advantage of color choice:Through bathtub refinishing, you can give a new look to your old bathtub with the colors of your choice. One of the beauties of refinishing is that you can match nearly any color of your choice. Your kitchen or bathroom will look great without costing you a lot of money.

Bathtub and Tile cleaning steps:

·           If your bath tub or ceramic tiles are hard to clean, then follow these simple steps:
·           Use abrasive cleaners (only for tubs with heavy deposits) to clean the tub or tiles.
·           Sprinkle the cleaner over the bathtub or tiles and allow it to penetrate for 15 minutes.
·           Using a blade tool, scrape the brown deposits off the tiles or bathtub. Repeat this step as needed,or      until the brown deposit is removed completely.
·           If you are dealing with ceramic tile cleaning, then you will need an additional step. This will mean    treating the grout with mild acid cleaner.
·          After removing all the deposits, clean the tub with a wet sponge.

If this cleaning process doesn’t help, hire an experienced Bathtub & tile resurfacing professional to get the job done right at the first time.
