Our history

Refinishing Has Been Our Focus for More Than 25 Years

NU-COAT has served Connecticut since 1997.

Over that time, we have helped homeowners and property owners restore thousands of bathroom surfaces, including:

  • Bathtubs
  • Bathroom tile
  • Fiberglass showers
  • One-piece tub/shower units
  • Chipped and damaged tub surfaces
  • Cracked fiberglass
  • Weak shower floors
  • Previously refinished fixtures

Our focus is not broad remodeling. It is professional surface restoration.

That specialization allows us to concentrate on the details that matter in refinishing, including preparation, repair, adhesion, coating application, curing, and long-term care.

Our approach

Our Approach: Restore Before You Replace

Many bathrooms need an update. That does not always mean they need demolition.

A bathtub may still be structurally sound but look stained or worn. Tile may still be firmly attached but feel dated. A fiberglass shower may still function properly but have lost its original appearance.

In these situations, refinishing can provide a practical alternative.

Our goal is simple:

Keep the fixture when it makes sense.Restore the surface properly.Avoid unnecessary replacement.
Benefits

Why Homeowners Choose Refinishing

Professional refinishing can provide several advantages over full replacement.

Lower Cost

Refinishing can save up to 75% compared with the total cost of replacing a bathtub or other bathroom fixture.

Less Disruption

Most projects do not require major demolition, extensive plumbing work, or tearing apart surrounding walls.

Faster Results

Many refinishing projects can be completed in one day.

Less Waste

Keeping structurally suitable fixtures in place avoids sending usable tubs, showers, and other materials to a landfill unnecessarily.

A Dramatic Visual Update

Worn, stained, dull, or outdated surfaces can often be restored without changing the entire bathroom layout.

Since 1997, NU-COAT has helped more than 5,000 homeowners and businesses update existing bathroom surfaces.

Preparation

Proper Preparation Comes First

The appearance of the final finish depends heavily on the work completed before it is applied.

That is why NU-COAT places strong emphasis on surface preparation.

Depending on the project, the process may include:

  • Surface inspection
  • Deep cleaning
  • Removal of soap and mineral buildup
  • Surface preparation
  • Repairing chips and scratches
  • Treating appropriate cracks
  • Evaluating previous coatings
  • Fiberglass repair
  • Reinforcing weak shower floors when appropriate
  • Professional coating application
  • Curing instructions

We do not treat refinishing as simply applying paint over an old surface.

Materials

Experience With Multiple Bathtub & Shower Materials

Over the years, NU-COAT has worked with many common bathroom surface materials.

Depending on condition, we may be able to refinish:

  • Porcelain
  • Cast iron
  • Fiberglass
  • Acrylic
  • Steel
  • Cultured marble
  • Bathroom tile
  • One-piece fiberglass units
Different materials and conditions require different preparation and repair considerations. That experience is one of the reasons proper project evaluation is important before refinishing begins.
Typical projects

Professional Results Without a Full Bathroom Remodel

NU-COAT is a strong fit for homeowners who like the layout of their bathroom but no longer like the condition or appearance of the surfaces.

If the fixture itself still works, refinishing may provide the visual improvement you want without rebuilding the entire room.

Typical projects include:

  • Updating an old colored bathtub
  • Refinishing a stained tub
  • Restoring faded tile
  • Repairing a chipped fixture
  • Refreshing a yellowed fiberglass shower
  • Recoating a previously refinished bathtub
  • Restoring multiple bathroom surfaces together
