Call TimWhat we do
When tubs, showers, and countertops age the surfaces become worn down and stained. They are not pleasant to look at, and certainly not pleasant to use. What we do is a process called thermoglazing , which is the process of heat applying several layers of porcelain glaze to the following surfaces:
bathtubs
Restore your bathtub to its original glory with our professional thermoglazing service.
showers
Transform your worn shower into a sparkling clean, like-new surface.
counter tops
Revitalize your bathroom countertops with our durable thermoglazing process.
Our pricing
We give your tub a brand new look for a lot less money and a lot less mess. Plus, we guarantee the finish of the surface for 10 years for residential jobs and 5 years for apartments. Give us a call today and get started on your bathroom project.

I am not one to write reviews, but Tim really did a great job. He was professional and punctual. The tub looks great and the price was right!

I gave Tim a call on a Monday morning and told him I had a shower base I needed to get done ASAP. He was at my place within a few days of making the call. The job came out great.

What is thermoglazing?
Thermoglazing is the process where we "heat apply" a porcelain glaze to the surface being refinished. This is the best way to get a new finish look and feel without the price of replacement.
We use a top of the line Fuji sprayer and compressor that is able to warm the material and the surface appropriately to get the perfect finish for the project.
This technique creates a long lasting finish that is guaranteed to leave you satisfied and wanting to use your bathroom again.
