FAQ
How much does bath refacing cost in Connecticut?

Do Connecticut bathroom contractors need a license?
Home improvement contractors must register with the Connecticut Department of Consumer Protection.
Is refacing cheaper than remodeling?
For the tub and shower area, usually by half or more. There is little demo, no tile labor and no waiting days for thinset and grout to cure.
Can a liner trap mold behind it?
Not if it is installed right. Every seam is sealed. Problems come from covering up an existing leak or rotted backer board, so a decent installer pokes around first and will not cover either one.
How long does a bath liner last?
Good acrylic systems often carry long or lifetime warranties and last decades. Skip abrasive cleaners and scouring pads; they dull the finish.
