bathtub refinishing
+ -1 moreBill is very nice and responsive. Unfortunately, I had to have him come back to apply another coat of epoxy because the first application was uneven in spots. This last application is also uneven. I would not recommend him.

bathtub refinishing
+ -1 moreWe had a bathtub/shower unit which had discoloration and bathtub bottom chips. We looked for a contractor from Angie's List, called three, of those listed, for an estimate. Decided to call back BathCrest and ask them to come to our home and give us an estimate while looking at the bathtub unit. I had heard it may need more than just prep and re-surfacing. Besides the re-surfacing, we agreed to get a new fill/drain fixture and something else (which I can't remember-can't find invoice/bill). The technician needed to return a day after the re-surfacing to install the drain fixture. A potential client needs to figure on two days before re-using the tub.
Description of Work: We are completely satisfied, and now proud, with our bathtub/shower unit after having it re-surfaced by Chad of BathCrest Metro, Inc. Just positive feedback here - professional workmanship and courteous technician.

bathtub refinishing
+ -1 moreThis was a very positive experience in getting a quote for a job that I may not need to do at this point in time.
Description of Work: I phoned two bath refinishing companies listed with positive ratings on Angie's List and this company was willing to do an in person estimate on a custom job (wanted the tub to remain pink) on what I thought was a tub that had been damaged to the surface of the cast iron. They came out quickly (within one week of making the call) and were prompt on arrival. They were very honest about the fact that the tub was not damaged to the cast iron but rather had residue on the bottom of the tub that made it appear damaged to that level. They recommended how to remove the residue and discouraged refinishing the tub because the new finish would be less durable overall than the current non-damaged porcelain. They provided a very competitive quote (as compared to the estimate given to me over the phone by the other chain franchise) just in case I decided to have the job done if the residue couldn't be removed. Another important part of the experience in addition to their honesty and integrity in giving me an honest estimate for the work that didn't really need to be completed, was the fact that they were willing to come to my home to see if they could come close to matching the color of the tub that I wanted to maintain (again pink, not your average white). I will use this company if I do decide to refinish the tub. I always try to go with a family owned business and this one proves why family owned is the way to go when that option is available to you. Thank you for the pride in your work and in your reputation!

bathtub refinishing
+ -1 moreThe whole process went very smoothly, from the first contact by phone (friendly and helpful), to the estimate by Bill, to the work by Bill and Seth. They removed the old sliding glass doors and frame and filled the screw holes in the tile so well that it is impossible to tell that the doors were ever there--much better than I dared hope, given the condition of the old frame and how long it had been glued to the tub and tile. They reglazed the tub, which was in pretty rough shape, and now it is gleaming and looks great. They did the work on a hot and humid day, and they worked hard. At the end, Seth took the time to explain the proper way to clean and care for the new surface and answered all my questions.
Description of Work: They removed the old sliding glass doors and resurfaced the tub.

bathtub refinishing
+ -1 moreAbout 15 years ago, we decided to reglaze the tub in our 1938 bathroom as an alternative to replacing the tub and retiling the surround. We hired Bathcrest at that time based on a recommendation in the paper and were pleased with the work. The glazing stayed beautiful for longer than the 5-year guarantee and the 10 year estimate, but in the last few years it became harder to clean and had chipped where we dropped things on it, so we called Bathcrest again. Because the first glazing had to be removed to prepare for the new coat, our work took somewhat longer andwas more expensive than the first time around, but much less than replacing the tub and surround. Bill Leonard did the work himself in less than 6 hours (with a break to help out at another site), cleaned up thoroughly, and explained the care clearly. The tub looks new, and from previous experience, we expect to be enjoying the results for at least 10 more years.
Description of Work: Removed older glazing and reglazed 70 year old tub.

+ -1 moreIt went beautifully. The owners were very helpful in scheduling the appointment and giving us calls to remind us of their arrival. The workman who performed the work informed us on the repair process. He discussed and left written instructions for subsequent care of the tub. This company proved to be reliable,pleasant and professional.

bathtub refinishing
+ -1 moreMy call was returned promptly, they came out in a few days for a free in home estimate and arrived exactly at the scheduled time. The work was scheduled for the next week. Arrived promptly, did a great job of explaining what was to be done. Was very respectful of the pets etc. that were in the home. The tub looks brand new, and the sink that another company had done about 8 years ago ( I think "permaglaze " was the name ) was still in good shape but had a few small chips so I had those repaired also. It also looks great. Explained exactly what I needed to do and not do for the first 48 hours, and how to maintain it in the long run. I dealt with all three individuals in the company and they were all really great to work with. I highly recommend them.
Description of Work: Refinished 60 yr old bathtub in white, replaced drain/overflow with new hardware, repaired sink that had been refinished approx. 8 yrs ago that had a few chips and some discoloration.

bathtub refinishing
+ -1 moreTheir service professional arrived on-schedule and assessed the situation quickly. When he realized he could repair the damage, he did so right on the spot. Everything looks great.
Description of Work: When we bought our house six years ago, we hired Bathcrest to paint our tub with a white glazing (over what had been a "natural" pink exterior previously). They did a wonderful job, but we'd recently had our tub tiling re-grouted and in the effort the tub had gotten scratches over much of the exterior. We called them back in to re-glaze the tub, but on inspection they realized they could simply repair the scratches without an entire re-glazing. This was considerably cheaper, and the tub looks great!

bathtub refinishing
+ -1 moreBathcrest refinished the tub about ten years ago. This finish would have lasted longer, but it was damaged in one spot by the carpenter on the project. That spot was not wearing well after ten years of touch ups, so I hired Bathcrest to resurface the tub again. The first time the tub was removed and refinished off site and this second time, it was done in my home. Much time was spent in preparation to spray-masking, drop cloths, fan in the window. The tub once again looks great.
Description of Work: I had my claw foot tub resurfaced.
