What Is Laminate Countertop Refinishing?
How It Works and What to Expect
Laminate countertop refinishing is a cost-effective and efficient way to breathe new life into worn, stained, or outdated kitchen and bathroom surfaces. Rather than replacing your entire countertop, refinishing involves professionally cleaning, repairing, and coating the existing laminate to give it a modern, durable finish.
Using industrial-grade bonding primers and tough polyester polyurethane topcoats, Bathtub and Tile Restorations can transform your old counters into a surface that mimics natural stone—like granite or marble—at a fraction of the cost of replacement.
Refinish or Replace? Why Refinishing Makes Sense
Cost, Speed, and Style Without the Hassle
Choosing to refinish rather than replace comes with multiple advantages:
Cost Savings: Refinishing can save homeowners between 50–75% compared to full countertop replacement.
Quick Turnaround: Most projects are completed in 1–2 days, minimizing disruption to your home.
Minimal Mess: No demolition required—just clean, precise work.
Stylish Finishes: Choose from a wide range of colors and textures, including finishes that resemble granite, marble, or quartz.
Eco-Friendly Option: Refinishing keeps your existing materials out of landfills and reduces environmental waste.
