Premier Bath & Kitchen Resurfacing can dramatically update your bathroom at prices that will keep your project on budget. Any type of tub, shower or ceramic tile can be reglazed to save the mess and expense of tear-out. Most jobs are done in less than a day, saving time, money and frustration.

Premier specializes in reglazing existing bathtubs of all types - cast iron, steel, fiberglass (including surrounds) and acrylic. With a guarantee of seven years, a non-slip surface, and no need to tear out your existing tub and surrounding walls, reglazing is an effective alternative to replacement.

Reglazing also can be applied to ceramic tile in any color. This effective process eliminates the need to tear out existing tile and can be accomplished with significant savings.

Many of our customers use our service to change the color of their bathtub. Others reglaze their tub because the original finish has worn away. Worn tubs are hard to keep clean because the original protective coating has eroded and the pores have become exposed. Thus dirt and grime seeps into the pores and is difficult to clean. In addition, all the effort you put into cleaning the tub only makes the problem worse by further destroying the protective coating.

The key to our process is the preparation and the coating. Drop cloths are laid from front door to bathroom. After protecting surrounding areas with tarps, tapes, and plastic film, we remove any caulk. Industrial chemicals remove soap scum and contaminants. On porcelain tubs, Premier uses a very safe and effective acid solution to make the finish on your tub long lasting. Premier is dedicated to giving our customers the most durable finish available.

At a workshop in 1997, hosted by a coatings manufacturer, we were told that a wipe-on primer is "good enough". Premier has used a terrific wipe-on primer (adhesion promoter) since day one. But we wanted to go beyond "good enough" to give our customers the "Premier Advantage". We seized an opportunity during a break and spoke to their head chemist. We asked him one simple question, "what can we do to give the longest lasting finish?" His response was, "Use acid to etch along with a wipe on primer."

This industry is driven by faster, cheaper, easier and fewer steps. Most refinishers do not acid etch because it takes longer, requires more supplies and training for employees. Premier is dedicated to giving our customers the most durable finish available, which requires more steps. Using only 4 ounces of acid, which stays on for less than 10 minutes and is then neutralized. There is no mess, and it is safe for septic systems, flooring, plumbing, people and puppies! The acid etch process is important to the life of your tub. Etching dulls the finish to give a stronger grip for the top coat (like sanding wood before painting). Etching is the best cleaner and stain remover, and etching is required when using our high-build spray-on primer. Each tub gets two coats of primer, which also covers many scratches. This along with our wipe-on primer, allow us to "double prime" your tub. The "Premier Advantage" allows us to extend our warranty from the industry standard of five years, to seven years. With acid etching and double priming, your tub will have the longest lasting finish. At Premier, we want to do more than "rent a finish".

Fiberglass and acrylic tubs are hand sanded to achieve the same dulled surface so our coating will have something to “grab on to.” Any significant chips are filled and a permanent anti-slip surface is applied to the floor. We pay special attention to the drain area. Our procedure is to “treat and seal” drains (known as the shoe) instead of removing, to prevent peeling. Removing/re-installing the shoe to refinish your tub can cause leaks or damage plumbing and your new finish. A spray booth is built around the tub. Our powerful exhaust system with 50-foot hose is set up. Next, we “double prime” with an industrial wipe-on primer and two coats of a tenacious spray-on adhesion promoter. We then spray on numerous coats of Aliphatic Acrylic Polyurethane, not epoxy. This is the premier coating in the industry. The hardening and adhesive agent in our coatings is similar to that found in “Superglue.” Our spraying system provides a smooth, even finish that will transform and rejuvenate your bathtub to the color of your choice in a few hours. White is our standard color, but countless optional colors are available by special order.
