Bathtub resurfacing in Phoenix
When the enamel is worn through, rough or stained beyond cleaning, the tub needs a new surface — not a new tub. We resurface cast iron and steel bathtubs with a thick poured coating in one visit.
- Worn, rough or stained enamel made smooth again
- No demolition, no plumber, no tile work
- Ready to use in 24 hours
Five signs your tub needs resurfacing, not more scrubbing
It never looks clean
You scrub, it looks better for a day, then the gray shadow is back. The glaze is worn and the surface has become porous.
It feels rough
Mineral scale and etched enamel feel like fine sandpaper under your hand, especially on the floor of the tub.
Rust keeps returning
Orange stains at the drain or overflow that come back after cleaning mean bare metal is exposed.
The floor is worn dull
The bottom is matte while the walls still shine — decades of feet and bath mats have worn the porcelain away.
The color dates the room
A sound tub in 1970s harvest gold. Resurfacing is how it becomes white without a remodel.
Chips and scratches
Dropped bottles and tools leave dark chips. They are repaired as part of the job.
Sanded, repaired, then poured
A new surface is only as good as what it is bonded to. So most of the visit is preparation: the old caulk comes out, the tub is cleaned of soap film and scale, and the entire surface is sanded to give the coating a mechanical grip.
Chips and rust spots are filled and leveled. New flexible caulk goes in around the tub, and then the coating is poured along the rim, flowing down the walls to the drain and leveling itself as it goes. It covers the caulk line too, so the joint is sealed inside the finish.
What cures in your bathroom is one continuous layer with no seams and no brush or spray texture.

About resurfacing
What is the difference between resurfacing and a tub liner?
A liner is a molded acrylic shell glued over your tub. It makes the tub smaller, sounds hollow, and water can get trapped underneath. Resurfacing bonds a new finish directly to the original tub, so the shape, size and solid feel stay the same.
Can you resurface just the bottom of the tub?
No. A partial coating always shows its edge and fails there first, so we always refinish the whole tub.
How much does it cost to resurface a bathtub in Phoenix?
A flat $475 for a standard cast iron or steel tub, including repairs and new caulk.
Do you resurface fiberglass tubs or shower pans?
No — only porcelain-enameled cast iron and steel bathtubs.
