How long will it last? A refinished bathtub or ceramic tile refinished by Fitzgerald's Creative Coatings should easily last 10 to 15 years with proper care and maintenance.
How durable is it? The refinishing coatings used by Fitzgerald's Creative Coatings are incredibly durable. Our finishes are designed to stand up to their intended use. However, just like a brand-new surface, a refinished surface can be chipped or scratched if it is abused.
Will my tub look painted? Most definitely not! In fact, most people would have a difficult time telling the difference between a new bathtub and a refinished one. Refinishing is that good if it is done properly.
How long will it take? A standard size bathtub in reasonable condition will take around 3 to 4 hours to refinish. The tub will normally be ready to use within 24 hours.
How much does it cost? Prices vary, but refinishing will almost always be a fraction of what replacement would cost. It can easily cost thousands to replace a bathtub when you consider all the labor costs. Refinishing can save up to 70% versus the cost of replacement.

What if my tub is damaged? Small chips and cracks can usually be repaired during the preparation stage of the refinishing process. Often, if it just a single chip, we can fill and refinish the damaged area. With careful matching, the repaired chip will be practically invisible.
Is refinishing just for bathtubs? No. Refinishing is great for a variety of surfaces including fiberglass shower stalls, kitchen countertops and cabinets, ceramic tile, cultured marble vanity tops, and acrylic tubs.
How long has Fitzgerald's Creative Coatings been in business? In 1995, Fitzgerald's Creative Coatings started as a result of the development of new technology. This technology has proven to be superior and more environmentally responsible compared to the older "acid-etch" method.
Is there a warranty? Fitzgerald's Creative Coatings offers a 5-year residential and 2-year commercial warranty against peeling or other failure of adhesion for bathtubs, wall tile, and fiberglass. Sinks, countertops, floors, chip repairs, and all other surfaces are warranted for a period of 1 year.
