What kind of tubs Goodyear and Avondale was built with
Litchfield Park began in 1916 as a company town for Goodyear Tire and Rubber, which grew cotton here for tire cord. Around the Wigwam resort you still find houses from the 1920s through the 50s with cast iron tubs. Historic Avondale along Western Avenue and the older streets of Tolleson date from the same decades.
Goodyear itself stayed small until the 1980s. Its original neighborhood near Litchfield Road and Western Avenue has post-war houses with steel tubs.
Everything else — Palm Valley, PebbleCreek, Estrella, Garden Lakes, Coldwater Springs — was built from the late 1980s on, mostly with acrylic and fiberglass tubs that we do not refinish. A magnet will tell you which kind yours is.

What tubs in Goodyear and Avondale usually need
Old Litchfield cast iron

Post-war steel
Historic Avondale and Tolleson houses have steel tubs with seventy years of wear. Chips and drain rust are routine repairs.

In Estrella or PebbleCreek the tub is most likely plastic. Check before you call.
The same visit, wherever you are in the Valley
Send a photo, get a confirmed price, pick a day. The work itself takes about three hours and the tub is ready 24 hours later.
-
Sand the whole tub
The entire tub is ground and sanded, not just the bad spots. Old caulk, loose coating and rust come off, and the new finish gets a surface it can grip.
-
Deep-clean and dry
The tub is etched, washed, neutralized and washed again, then dried completely — seams included — and wiped down with alcohol. Nothing is left between the tub and the coating.
-
Seal, repair, mask
New flexible caulk goes around the tub, chips and rust spots are repaired, and the tile, floor and fixtures are masked.
-
Pour the coating
The coating is poured along the rim. It runs down the walls, levels itself and closes over the caulk line into one seamless white layer. 24 hours later the tub is ready.
