Change your bathtub color to white
Pink, powder blue, seafoam, harvest gold, almond. The Valley's mid-century bathrooms came in every color but white. If the tub is the only thing dating the room, it does not need to be torn out.
- Any original color becomes glossy white
- The tile and the plumbing stay untouched
- One visit, about three hours
The color is only in the glaze
A colored tub from the 1950s–70s is ordinary steel or cast iron with tinted porcelain fired on top. The color is a few thousandths of an inch of glass. Underneath is the same solid tub as any white one.
We do not strip that glaze. It is sanded so the new coating bonds to it, any chips are repaired, and an opaque white coating is poured over the whole tub. Because a poured layer is thick, the old color is completely hidden — no pink shadow at the edges, no blue showing at the drain.
The result is a white tub in the same place, the same size, with the same plumbing.
What changes and what does not
- The tub: glossy white, inside and on the front panel
- The caulk line: new and white
- The tile: untouched — we mask it, we do not coat it
- The sink and toilet: untouched
- The drain and overflow trim: stay as they are, or swap them for new chrome before we come
A white tub in a colored bathroom
White tub, original tile
A white tub against pink or blue 4×4 tile looks deliberate and clean, and keeps the mid-century character many Phoenix buyers now look for.
Before you sell or rent
A dated tub color is one of the first things buyers and tenants notice. Changing it costs less than almost any other bathroom update.
For rentalsAs step one of a remodel
Refinish the tub, then update paint, vanity and lighting around it. You keep the budget for the things that show.
Refinish vs. replaceWe refinish in white only. If you love your pink tub and just want it shiny again, we are honestly not the right company — the finish we pour is white.
About changing the color
Can you change a bathtub from almond or bone to white?
Yes. Almond, bone and biscuit are the most common requests. They come out pure white.
Will the old color show through?
No. The coating is opaque and applied thick, so nothing shows through, including at the edges.
Can you match my white toilet or sink?
The finish is a clean, neutral white that sits well next to standard white fixtures.
Can you also change the color of the tile or the sink?
No. We refinish bathtubs only.
