What is bathtub reglazing?
A new-looking tub, without replacing it
Bathtub reglazing, also called bathtub refinishing or resurfacing, restores the surface of your existing tub. We deep-clean it, strip away the worn finish, repair chips and cracks, then spray on a durable new coating. The result is a smooth, glossy white tub that looks and feels new.
Replacing a built-in tub in Edmonton usually means tearing out tile, paying a plumber, and losing your bathroom for days or weeks. Tub reglazing is done in a single visit, at a fraction of the cost, with no demolition and no waste going to the landfill.
It's ideal if your tub is:
- Stained, dull or rough, and no amount of scrubbing helps
- Chipped, cracked or showing rust spots
- An outdated colour like almond, pink, green or brown that you want white
- In a rental unit or a home you're getting ready to sell

FAQ
Bathtub reglazing questions, answered
How long does bathtub reglazing take?
Most bathtubs take 1 to 3 hours on site. Tubs with chips, cracks or heavy damage take longer because we repair them before refinishing.
When can I use my tub after reglazing?
Your tub is ready to use 48 hours after we finish. The coating needs that time to cure fully and harden.
How much does bathtub reglazing cost in Edmonton?
The price depends on the tub's material, size and condition, and whether you add shower walls, tile or repairs. Reglazing usually costs a fraction of replacing a tub. Contact us for a free, no-obligation estimate.
How long does a reglazed bathtub last?
With proper care, a professionally reglazed tub lasts for many years. Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid bath mats with suction cups, and fix dripping taps. Our work is covered by a 2-year workmanship warranty.
Can you repair chips and cracks?
Yes. We repair chips, cracks and worn spots as part of the reglazing process, so the repair blends into the new finish.
Can you change the colour of my tub?
We refinish in a bright, glossy white. It is the most popular choice and the perfect way to update an outdated almond, pink, green or brown tub.
Is there a smell during reglazing?
Refinishing coatings have an odour while we work. We ventilate the bathroom, and our technicians wear professional respirators. The smell fades as the coating cures.
What does the warranty cover?
Our 2-year workmanship warranty covers problems caused by our work, such as peeling or the finish lifting. It does not cover damage after the job, such as impacts, dropped objects, harsh chemicals or misuse.
