At Hudson Tubs, we specialize in restoring the beauty and functionality of your existing fixtures, delivering a stunning, durable finish that revitalizes your entire bathroom, all at a fraction of the cost and time of demolition and renovation.

Refinishing, also known as reglazing or resurfacing, is a meticulous process that involves applying a new, high-performance coating to your existing bathroom fixtures. This isn't just a paint job; it's a comprehensive restoration that bonds a new surface to the old, creating a seamless, glossy, and incredibly resilient finish.

Our Meticulous Refinishing Process: A Journey to Perfection

At Hudson Tubs, we follow a detailed, proven process to ensure a beautiful and long-lasting finish every time:

1. Initial Consultation: We begin by discussing your needs, inspecting the fixtures, and providing a clear, upfront estimate.
2. Thorough Surface Preparation: This is the cornerstone of a durable finish. We meticulously clean the surface to remove all soap scum, body oils, silicone, and mineral deposits. Old caulk is removed. Depending on the material (porcelain, ceramic, etc.), the surface is then either chemically etched or mechanically abraded to create the ideal profile for maximum adhesion.
3. Expert Damage Repair: Any chips, cracks, scratches, or rust spots are carefully repaired and filled, ensuring a perfectly smooth and blemish-free foundation.
4. Protecting Your Space: We mask off all surrounding areas - walls, floors, and other fixtures - to protect them from overspray. Proper ventilation is established.
5. Advanced Bonding Agent: A proprietary bonding agent or primer is applied. This crucial step ensures a tenacious molecular bond between the old surface and the new coating.
6. Flawless Topcoat Application: Multiple layers of a premium, high-solids acrylic urethane (or similar advanced coating) are expertly sprayed onto the fixture. This creates an incredibly durable, non-porous, high-gloss finish that is resistant to impact and abrasion. We offer a range of standard colors and can discuss custom options.
7. Curing and Finalization: The new finish dries to the touch relatively quickly. We'll explain the full curing timeline, typically allowing for light use within 24-48 hours, with full cure taking a few days.
8. Finishing Touches & Cleanup: Protective masking is removed, the work area is thoroughly cleaned, and new caulk is applied around the refinished fixture as needed. We leave your bathroom neat and ready to impress.

The Hudson Tubs Professional Difference: Superiority Over DIY

While DIY refinishing kits are available, they simply cannot match the quality, durability, or aesthetic appeal of a professional service:

•  Industrial-Grade Materials: We use specialized, high-performance coatings and primers that are far superior to anything available in a DIY kit. These materials are designed for long-term performance and resilience.
•  Expert Application & Technique: Our technicians have years of experience and specialized training. Achieving a smooth, even, factory-like finish requires skill and precision that is difficult to replicate without professional equipment and expertise.
•  Unmatched Durability & Longevity: Professionally refinished surfaces, when properly cared for, can last 10-15 years or even longer. DIY solutions often fail, peel, or discolor much sooner.
•  Safety and Preparation: We adhere to strict safety protocols, including proper ventilation, to protect your home and family. Our surface preparation is far more thorough than what is typically achieved with DIY methods, which is critical for adhesion.
•  Peace of Mind: We stand behind our work, offering a guarantee on our services.

Caring for Your Beautifully Refinished Fixtures

Maintaining your newly refinished surface is simple. We recommend using non-abrasive, liquid cleaners. Avoid harsh chemicals, abrasive powders, or scrubbing pads, as these can dull or damage the finish over time. We will provide you with detailed care instructions upon completion of the service.

Frequently Asked Questions About Fixture Refinishing

Q: How long will my refinished fixture last?
A: With proper care and maintenance, a professionally refinished surface by Hudson Tubs can last 10-15 years or more.

Q: Will there be a strong odor during the process?
A: Our process involves specialized coatings that do have an odor during application.

Any lingering scent typically dissipates quickly, usually within a few hours to a day.

A: Your refinished fixture can typically be returned to light use within 24–48 hours after the process is complete. We will provide specific instructions regarding cure times.

Q: Can you change the color of my fixtures?
A: Absolutely! This is one of the great advantages of refinishing. We can change your fixtures to a classic white, or you can choose from a range of other popular colors to match your new bathroom décor.

Q: Is refinishing a good option for all types of damage?
A: Refinishing is excellent for repairing chips, cracks, stains, rust, and general wear. However, severely damaged or structurally compromised fixtures may require replacement. We will assess your fixture during the free estimate and advise on the best course of action.
