Reglazing that looks like replacement, without the demolition

A tired bathroom rarely needs to be torn out. In most New York apartments and homes, the tub, tile and sink are structurally sound. What has failed is the surface: the glaze has dulled, stains have set into the porcelain, chips have spread and grout lines have gone dark. Reglazing treats exactly that problem. We repair the damage, chemically prepare the surface and apply a new coating that bonds to the original material, leaving a hard, smooth, glossy finish that is easy to clean and built to last for years.

One day, not one week

Most bathtub reglazing and tile reglazing jobs are finished in two to four hours. There is no debris, no plumbing work and no ripped out walls, so tenants, guests and families can get back to normal quickly.

A fraction of the cost

Refinishing reglazing starts around $350, while a full bathtub replacement in New York often runs past $3,000 once tile repair, plumbing and disposal are counted. Affordable bathtub refinishing protects your budget and your walls.

Why New York property owners choose reglazing over replacement

Square footage is precious here and building rules are strict. Replacing a tub in a walk up means carrying an old cast iron unit down four flights, opening tiled walls, booking a plumber and filing for permission. Reglazing avoids all of it. Our crew arrives with the materials in hand, works in a masked and ventilated space and leaves you with a surface that looks new. For landlords and building managers, that means a unit is ready for the next tenant in a day rather than a week. For homeowners, it means the bathroom you use every morning stops feeling like something you apologize for.

Residential bathtub reglazing

Homes, co ops, condos and rentals across Ridgewood, Queens, Brooklyn, Manhattan, the Bronx, Staten Island, Westchester and Long Island. We work around your schedule, protect the room from dust and odor, and walk you through cleaning and care before we go. Color matching is available if you want to keep an existing scheme or move to a clean modern white.

Commercial tile reglazing

Hotels, property managers, nursing homes, student housing and construction sites rely on us for volume work. We can phase a building floor by floor so rooms stay in service, coordinate with your maintenance team and handle punch list damage before final inspection. Top tile reglazing at scale keeps rooms rentable without the cost of a full renovation.

About our reglazing company

The reglazing crew New York calls when the tub is staying put

White Glove Bathtub And Tile Reglazing has built its name on careful prep work, honest pricing and finishes that hold up in buildings that get used hard.

Who we are

We are a locally owned refinishing company based in Ridgewood, New York, serving Queens, Brooklyn, Manhattan, the Bronx, Staten Island, Westchester and Long Island. Our work is narrow on purpose. We do not remodel bathrooms, sell fixtures or pull permits. We reglaze, refinish and repair the surfaces you already own, and we have spent years getting that one thing right.

That focus shows up in the details. Reglazing is a chemistry job as much as a coating job. A surface that has not been cleaned of soap residue, body oils, silicone and old cleaning product will reject the new finish no matter how good the material is. So our technicians spend most of their time on preparation: degreasing, removing old caulk, grinding out chips, etching the porcelain and masking every fixture and surface that is not being coated. The spraying itself takes a small share of the visit. It is the part before it that decides whether your reglazed bathtub still looks good in five years.

How we work

Four habits that decide whether a customer calls us back and recommends us to a neighbor.

Straight pricing

The number we quote is the number you pay. If a tub turns out to need extra chip repair, we tell you before we start, not after.

Written warranty

Every reglazing job is covered. If the finish fails under normal use within the warranty period, we come back and correct it.

Same day where possible

We are open from 8am to 8pm every day, and until 8:30pm on Tuesday, so bookings fit around tenants, guests and work schedules.

Easy payment

All major credit cards and checks accepted, with a payment authorization form available for property managers and commercial accounts.

What reglazing actually involves

If you have never had a surface refinished, here is what happens in your bathroom on the day.

Preparation and repair

The room is ventilated and every surface that is not being coated gets masked: floor, walls, fixtures, mirrors and vents. Old caulk comes out. Rust, chips, cracks and drill holes are ground back, filled and sanded flat. The porcelain or fiberglass is then cleaned with a degreaser and etched so the new coating has something to grip. On tile reglazing jobs, grout lines are cleaned and repaired at this stage as well, which is why a refinished tile wall looks uniform rather than patchy.

Coating and cure

A bonding primer goes on first, followed by several thin coats of the finish in your chosen color. Thin coats are what create a hard, even gloss. Heavy coats sag and stay soft. The surface is then left to cure, and we tell you exactly how long to wait before using it, usually around 24 hours for a bathtub. Before we leave, masking comes down, the room is cleaned, and you get written care instructions covering which cleaners to use and which to avoid.

Describe your surface and we will tell you honestly whether reglazing is the right answer.

Frequently asked questions

The questions we hear most often about bathtub reglazing, tile reglazing and refinishing in general.

What is bathtub and tile reglazing, and how does it work?

Reglazing is a surface restoration process. The existing bathtub or tile is deep cleaned, repaired and chemically etched, then coated with a bonding primer and several thin layers of a durable finish. The result is a hard, glossy surface that looks new while the original fixture stays exactly where it is. Nothing is torn out and no plumbing work is needed.

How long does a reglazing job take?

Most bathtub reglazing and shower reglazing projects are finished in two to four hours. Larger jobs such as a full bathroom tile reglazing or a multi unit commercial tile reglazing schedule take longer, and we give you a time estimate with your quote. Replacement, by comparison, usually takes several days once demolition, plumbing and tile repair are included.

How long will a reglazed surface last?

With non abrasive cleaners and normal use, a professionally reglazed bathtub or tile surface lasts many years. The two things that shorten its life are scouring powders and leaving standing water on the finish from a dripping faucet. We cover both in the care instructions we leave with you.

How much does bathtub refinishing cost in New York?

Affordable bathtub refinishing typically starts around $350, compared with roughly $3,000 for a replacement once labor, tile repair, plumbing and disposal are counted. The final price depends on the size of the surface, the amount of chip and crack repair required, and whether you are reglazing a tub alone or a tub and surrounding tile together. Estimates are free.

Can you reglaze while a home or building is occupied?

Yes. Occupied homes, apartments, hotels and nursing homes are most of our work. We ventilate the room, contain the area and use processes that keep odor and mess to a minimum. In a building with several bathrooms, residents can usually go about their day normally while one room is out of use.

Can I choose a color other than white?

Yes. White and off white are the most requested finishes, but we can match an existing color or move you to a different one. Color matching is common on tile reglazing and countertop refinishing projects where only part of a room is being refinished, and on vanity resurfacing where the top needs to match new cabinetry.

Do you repair chips and cracks before reglazing?

Tub chip repair is part of standard preparation. Chips, hairline cracks, rust spots and old drill holes are ground out, filled, sanded flat and then coated along with the rest of the surface, so the repair disappears. We can also carry out chip repair on its own if the rest of the finish is still in good condition.

Which areas do you serve?

We are based in Ridgewood, New York, and cover Queens, Brooklyn, Manhattan, the Bronx, Staten Island, Westchester and Long Island for both residential bathtub reglazing and commercial tile reglazing contracts.

Bathtub Reglazing New York

Bathtub Reglazing

A worn bathtub rarely needs to leave the building. Bathtub reglazing strips the tub back to a clean, sound surface, repairs the damage in it and rebuilds the finish with a bonding primer and several thin coats of a hard, glossy coating. We work on cast iron, pressed steel, acrylic and fiberglass tubs, including clawfoot models that would be difficult and expensive to replace. Stains that no longer respond to cleaning, a dull chalky bottom, spreading chips and rust around the drain all disappear. The job usually takes two to four hours, leaves no debris and requires no plumber, which matters in older New York buildings where opening a tiled wall turns a small project into a large one. Tub reglazing also lets you change color, so a dated almond or bone tub can come back a clean modern white. We finish by removing all masking and leaving written care instructions. Estimates are free, and if we find that a tub is cracked through or unstable underneath, we will tell you plainly that replacement is the better call rather than sell you a coating that will not hold.

Tile Reglazing New York

Tile Reglazing

Bathroom tile reglazing solves two problems at once: tile that has gone dull, stained or hopelessly dated, and grout that has darkened beyond cleaning. We repair cracked and loose tile, clean and restore the grout lines, then etch and coat the whole wall so the finish is even rather than patchy. Pink, blue, green and brown tile from earlier decades is the most common request, and a single day of tile reglazing can change the entire character of a bathroom without touching the wall behind it. Because nothing is demolished, there is no dust in the hallway, no debris to carry down and no risk of disturbing old plaster or pipework. The coated surface is sealed and easy to wipe clean, which is why landlords and building managers use tile reglazing between tenants. Floor tile and kitchen backsplashes can be refinished using the same process. Estimates are free, and we are happy to advise on whether reglazing the tile alone will be enough or whether doing the tub at the same time gives a better result for the money.

Shower Reglazing New York

Shower Reglazing and Shower Stall Refinishing

Shower stalls take more abuse than almost any surface in a home. Fiberglass units go yellow and rough, pans crack under repeated use, and tiled surrounds lose their seal along the grout lines. Shower reglazing addresses all of it. We repair cracks and soft spots in the base, remove old caulk and mildew, restore grout where needed, then coat the pan and surround in a durable finish that resists water and cleaning products. A slip resistant texture can be added to the floor of the stall, which is a common request in family homes, rental units and assisted living facilities. The result is a stall that is sealed, bright and simple to clean, delivered in hours rather than the days a replacement enclosure would take. For properties with several identical stalls, we can schedule the work unit by unit so rooms stay available. Estimates are free, and we will confirm cure times up front so you know exactly when the stall can go back into service for family, guests or tenants.

Book shower reglazing
Sink Refinishing New York

Sink Refinishing

Sinks collect the kind of damage that cleaning cannot fix: rust rings around the drain, blue green stains from a dripping faucet, chips along the rim and a surface that has gone porous and grey. Sink refinishing repairs those areas and recoats the basin so it is smooth, white and sealed again. We refinish porcelain, enamel over cast iron and steel sinks in both bathrooms and kitchens, including pedestal sinks and integrated basins where replacement would mean new plumbing and a new countertop. Because a sink is a small surface, it is often the most affordable job we do and can be scheduled alongside bathtub or tile work in the same visit. Color matching is available so a refinished sink lines up with an existing tub, tile or countertop rather than standing out as the one new looking item in the room. Estimates are free, and we will confirm whether the basin can be refinished in place or needs the faucet isolated first, so there are no surprises on the day.

Book sink refinishing
Countertop Refinishing New York

Countertop Refinishing

Countertop refinishing gives a kitchen or bathroom a new work surface without tearing out cabinets or disturbing a sink and faucet that work perfectly well. We refinish laminate, cultured marble, tile and solid surface counters, filling burns, scratches, seams and chips before coating. Finishes are available in solid colors or in multi tone stone effects that read like granite or quartz from normal viewing distance, which is why this is a popular choice in rental units and homes being prepared for sale. The coated surface is sealed, non porous and easy to keep clean. A typical kitchen counter is completed in a day, and because the cabinets below are untouched there is no need to empty the room or arrange new plumbing. If you are also considering cabinet refinishing, the two jobs can be combined for a coordinated result. Estimates are free, and we will walk you through finish samples so the color and pattern you pick suit the cabinets and flooring already in the room.

Book countertop refinishing
Cabinet Refinishing New York

Cabinet Refinishing

New cabinetry is usually the largest line on a kitchen renovation quote, and in most homes the boxes are perfectly sound. Cabinet refinishing keeps that structure and replaces only what you actually see. Doors and drawer fronts are cleaned of grease, lightly sanded, repaired where the edges have chipped, then coated in your chosen color along with the frames. Bathroom vanity cabinets are refinished the same way. The work happens in place, which keeps your kitchen usable and avoids the weeks of waiting that come with a custom order. Colors range from clean whites and warm neutrals to deeper tones for a more modern look, and hardware can be swapped at the same time for a bigger visual change. Combined with countertop refinishing, cabinet refinishing changes the whole appearance of a kitchen for a fraction of a full remodel. Estimates are free, and we will assess the doors honestly first, since badly swollen or delaminated fronts are better replaced than coated even when the boxes are fine.

Book cabinet refinishing
Vanity Resurfacing New York

Vanity Resurfacing

A bathroom vanity carries the marks of daily use: water damage along the front edge, toothpaste and cosmetic stains in the basin, and a top whose color belongs to a different decade. Vanity resurfacing restores the whole unit, top and cabinet together, so nothing in the room looks mismatched. Cultured marble tops with integrated sinks are ideal candidates, since replacing one usually means new plumbing, new fixings and often new wall tile behind it. We repair chips and stress cracks in the top, rebuild damaged edges, then coat the surface in a solid color or stone effect finish. Cabinet doors and frames can be refinished in the same visit. Because the unit stays bolted to the wall and connected to the plumbing, the bathroom is out of action for hours rather than days, which suits both occupied homes and rental turnovers. Estimates are free, and we can quote the top on its own or the top and cabinet together so you can weigh the difference before deciding.

Book vanity resurfacing
Jacuzzi Reglazing New York

Jacuzzi Reglazing

Jetted tubs are expensive to replace and awkward to remove, since the unit is usually built into a tiled deck with pumps and plumbing underneath. Jacuzzi reglazing restores the visible surface and leaves that installation untouched. We mask the jets and fittings, repair chips, cracks and rough patches in the acrylic or fiberglass shell, then apply a finish that stands up to warm water and frequent use. Surrounding deck tile can be refinished in the same visit so the whole area matches. This service is common in older homes where the tub still runs well but the surface has gone dull, scratched or discolored, and in hotels and short term rentals where guests judge a bathroom on how the tub looks. We advise on how long to wait before running the jets again and which cleaning products keep the finish intact. Estimates are free, and we will check the shell for flex and soft spots first, because a tub that moves underfoot needs structural attention before any coating goes on.

Book jacuzzi reglazing
Tub Chip Repair New York

Tub Chip Repair

A dropped shampoo bottle or a shower door installation can take a chip out of a tub in a second, and the exposed metal underneath begins to rust soon after. Tub chip repair stops that spread. We grind out the damaged area, treat any rust, fill and build the surface back level, then sand and blend the repair into the surrounding finish so it is not obvious where the damage was. The same process handles hairline cracks, old drill holes from a removed grab bar, and rust around the drain. If the rest of the tub is still in good condition, a spot repair is far cheaper than reglazing the whole surface, and it is often all that a security deposit inspection or a move out walkthrough requires. If the damage is widespread, we will tell you honestly that full bathtub reglazing is the better value. Estimates are free, and small repairs can often be scheduled alongside another job in the same building so you are not paying a separate call out.

Commercial Tile Reglazing New York

Commercial Tile Reglazing

Commercial tile reglazing keeps rooms earning. Hotels, property managers, nursing homes, student housing and construction contractors use us when surfaces look tired but the budget and the calendar will not support a renovation. We phase the work floor by floor or unit by unit so a property never goes fully offline, coordinate directly with maintenance teams and site supervisors, and work evenings or weekends when that causes less disruption. Typical jobs include reglazing tiled bathroom walls across a block of guest rooms, restoring shower pans in an assisted living facility, and repairing fixtures damaged on a job site before final inspection so the punch list clears without ordering replacements. Volume pricing is available, invoicing suits accounts payable processes, and a payment authorization form is available for card payments. Top tile reglazing at scale is where the cost difference against replacement becomes dramatic. Estimates are free, and we can walk a property with you to scope the work, agree a room by room sequence and put realistic dates against each phase before anything is committed.

Residential Bathtub Reglazing New York

Residential Bathtub Reglazing

Residential bathtub reglazing is built around people who still have to live in the home while the work happens. We arrive within an agreed window, protect the floor and hallway on the way in, ventilate the bathroom properly and keep the working area contained. Most homes have one full bathroom, so we are clear from the start about how long the surface needs to cure before it can be used, usually about a day, and we schedule around that rather than leaving you to guess. The service suits homeowners, co op and condo residents and tenants who want a better bathroom without a renovation their building would have to approve. Reglaze bathtub work can be combined with tile, sink or countertop refinishing in one visit, which is both cheaper and less disruptive than booking separate appointments. Estimates are free, and we are used to working around building rules, elevator bookings and superintendent access in New York apartment buildings.

Bathroom Refinishing New York

Full Bathroom Refinishing

Bathroom refinishing is our complete package: tub, surrounding wall tile, floor tile, sink and vanity all restored in one coordinated project. Doing the whole room at once means every surface is matched to the same color and gloss, which is the difference between a bathroom that looks refreshed and one that looks half finished. The project also covers the details that make a room feel clean, including regrouting, fresh caulk lines and repair of chips and cracks across every fixture. This is the service most often chosen before selling a property, after a long tenancy, or when a bathroom is functionally fine but visually exhausted. It delivers a result close to a remodel at a small share of the cost, in a day or two rather than weeks, and with no demolition, permits or plumbing work involved. Estimates are free, and we will give you a realistic picture of what refinishing can and cannot change, so the finished room matches what you pictured when you booked it.

What to expect after you get in touch

Most people contact us at the point where they have already tried everything else. The tub has been scrubbed with every product on the shelf, the grout has been bleached, and the surface still looks tired. That is exactly the situation reglazing is built for, and the first thing we do is tell you honestly whether it will work on your surface. If a tub is cracked through, rotted underneath or moving when you step in, refinishing is not the answer and we will say so rather than take the booking.

When you call 718-618-6882 or email info@whiteglovereglazing.com, we will ask a short set of questions: what the surface is made of, roughly how old it is, what the damage looks like and whether you are refinishing one item or a whole bathroom. Photos make this much faster, which is why the form above accepts attachments. Clear shots of the full surface plus close ups of any chips, cracks or rust are usually enough for us to quote accurately without a site visit.

From there you get a firm price with no obligation. If you approve it, we agree a date and a time window, and we confirm the practical details that matter in New York buildings: whether there is an elevator, where we can park, how we get access if you are at work, and whether a building manager needs to be notified. For commercial tile reglazing contracts we go further and plan the sequence of rooms with your maintenance team so occupancy is affected as little as possible.

On the day, the technician arrives within the agreed window and protects the route in and the room itself before any work begins. Preparation, repair and coating follow, and you are told exactly how long to wait before using the surface, usually around 24 hours for a bathtub. Payment is straightforward: all major credit cards and checks are accepted, and a payment authorization form is available for property managers and commercial accounts who need to settle by card remotely.

We serve Ridgewood and the wider New York area, including Queens, Brooklyn, Manhattan, the Bronx, Staten Island, Westchester and Long Island. Whether it is a single sink refinishing job, affordable bathtub refinishing in a rental, or a phased commercial tile reglazing program across a hotel, the process is the same and the estimate is always free.
