How much will I save with bath refinishing as opposed to replacement?

These costs add up, and you can easily end up spending thousands.

Can you refinish bath that has been already refinished?
This usually occurs because the product used was inferior or short cuts where taken in the application process due to a lack of training in the technician. Yes, a bath that has been refinished before can be refinished again. Surface Doctor will strip and clean the bath before we refinish it so the old coatings are removed.
