Professional Bathtub Reglazing: Restore Your Tub's Shine for Years

Before you consider the cost and disruption of a full replacement, discover the transformative power of professional bathtub reglazing from Hudson Tubs. Reglazing, also known as refinishing or resurfacing, is a highly effective and affordable method to restore your tub's original beauty, giving it a durable, glossy, like-new finish in just a matter of hours. Save money, save time, and fall in love with your bathroom again.
What is Bathtub Reglazing? (More Than Just Paint)
Bathtub reglazing isn't a simple paint job. It's a meticulous process that involves professionally preparing your tub's surface and applying multiple layers of a specialized, high-performance coating. This durable finish chemically bonds to the original surface, creating a seamless, non-porous, and incredibly resilient new look.

Our Professional Reglazing Process: Built for Beauty and Durability
Achieving a flawless, long-lasting finish requires expertise, specialized equipment, and premium materials – far beyond what DIY kits offer. At Hudson Tubs, our meticulous process ensures outstanding results:

1. Area Protection & Ventilation: We carefully mask and protect your surrounding bathroom surfaces (tile, fixtures, floors) and set up powerful ventilation systems for safety and air quality.
2. Deep Cleaning & Decontamination: The tub surface is thoroughly cleaned using industrial-strength cleaners to remove soap scum, mineral deposits, body oils, and any contaminants that could interfere with adhesion.
3. Damage Repair: Chips, cracks, scratches, and other surface imperfections are expertly repaired to create a smooth, flawless base.
4. Surface Etching & Proprietary Bonding Agent: This is crucial. Unlike simple sanding (common in DIY), we use a chemical etching process to microscopically roughen the surface. We then apply a proprietary bonding agent that creates an incredibly strong molecular link between the old surface and the new coating – the key to preventing peeling and ensuring longevity.
5. Multi-Layer Spray Application: Using professional HVLP (High Volume, Low Pressure) spray equipment, we apply multiple fine layers of our premium acrylic polyurethane coating. This advanced material offers superior durability, stain resistance, and a high-gloss finish compared to the basic epoxy found in DIY kits.
6. Curing & Finishing: The coating cures to a hard, resilient finish. We perform final checks and any necessary light polishing for a perfect sheen.
7. Caulking & Clean-up: We remove all protective coverings, apply fresh caulking around the tub if needed, and leave your bathroom clean and ready for the newly reglazed tub to cure (typically 24-48 hours before use).

Choosing professional reglazing from Hudson Tubs offers significant advantages over ripping out your old tub or attempting a DIY project:

Key Benefits:

•  Like-New Look & Feel: Achieve a beautiful, durable, high-gloss finish that revitalizes your entire bathroom.

The Pitfalls of DIY Kits: Why Professional Reglazing Wins
While DIY kits seem tempting for their low initial cost, they rarely deliver satisfactory long-term results. Common problems include:

•  Peeling & Bubbling: Improper surface preparation and inferior bonding agents (often just basic sanding) lead to rapid coating failure.
•  Short Lifespan: DIY epoxy coatings are less durable and typically only last 1-3 years before needing removal and re-application.
•  Toxic Fumes & Safety Risks: DIY kits involve strong chemicals without professional ventilation equipment, posing health risks.
•  Difficult & Messy Application: Achieving a smooth, even finish with brushes or rollers is extremely difficult, often resulting in drips and unevenness.
•  No Warranty: If (or when) the DIY finish fails, you have no recourse.

Choosing Hudson Tubs means: Expert technicians, professional-grade materials (advanced acrylic polyurethane), meticulous preparation using chemical bonding agents, proper safety protocols, a flawless finish, and a solid warranty for peace of mind.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: How long does professional bathtub reglazing last?A: With proper care using non-abrasive cleaners, a professionally reglazed bathtub from Hudson Tubs typically lasts 10-15 years or even longer. This is significantly longer than the 1-3 year lifespan expected from DIY kits.
Q: Is reglazing really worth the cost?A: Absolutely. Compared to the high cost, time, and mess of a full replacement (often $3,000+), professional reglazing offers incredible value, providing a like-new appearance and years of durability for a fraction of the price.
Q: Is the reglazing process safe? Are there strong fumes?A: Yes, the process is safe when performed by professionals like Hudson Tubs. We use specialized ventilation systems to exhaust fumes outside your home during the application and curing process. While there is an odor during application, it dissipates quickly once the process is complete and ventilated. Our materials are safe once cured.
Q: What causes a reglaze to fail, and how do you prevent it?A: The most common cause of failure (especially with DIY) is improper surface preparation and poor adhesion. Hudson Tubs prevents this through meticulous cleaning, chemical etching (not just sanding), and applying a powerful bonding agent before the topcoats, ensuring a strong, lasting bond. Using inferior materials (like basic epoxy) also leads to premature failure.
Q: Can you reglaze a tub that has already been reglazed?A: Yes, in most cases. We will need to strip the old, failing coating before proceeding with our professional reglazing process. This adds some time and cost but results in a fresh, durable finish.
