Quick Bid

How to Get a Quick Bid!

Our turnaround time for getting a bid to you is really fast if you have the ability to email some basic information to us. On all bid requests, please include the property zip code and your deadline for having the work completed.

From the list below, choose the fixture(s) you're interested in having repaired or refinished, answer the corresponding questions as best you can, then send that information, along with the pictures and measurements requested (see how to measure below), to [email protected].  Do that during business hours, and we'll email a bid to you that same day, maybe within minutes.  It's that simple.

PICTURES ARE IMPORTANT!

Please keep in mind I'm trying to see what you see.  Take a picture of the entire tub, shower, etc., so I can see how it sits in the room.  Then take pictures of any damage, zooming in and out so that I can gain perspective as to the size and location of the damage in relation to the rest of the fixture.  Taping a coin or holding a measuring tape next to the damage will help isolate it in the picture and give me a good vantage point.

Describe the damage (chips, rust, cracks, holes) - how it happened, how long it's been there, if it's gotten worse over time, etc.  The more information you can give us, the more accurate our bid will be.

BATHTUBS

PORCELAIN

Cast iron, or Steel? (Tip: Most homes built before the 80's have cast iron tubs.)

FIBERGLASS and ACRYLIC

5-foot rectangle, oversized, or 1-piece wall unit?
If jetted, how many trim pieces?

CULTURED MARBLE

If jetted, how many trim pieces?
Is there also a skirt, backsplash, or ledge?

Additional Questions:

Has this tub been refinished before?
Are there shower doors attached to this tub?
What is the age and zip code of the property?
What kind of damage (rust, chips, discoloration, staining) can you see?
What is your deadline to have the work completed?

HOW TO MEASURE OVERSIZED BATHTUBS

If your tub is a 5-foot rectangle, we do not need measurements.  However, if it is any other size or shape, we'll need measurements for length, width, and depth.

When taking these measurements, do not dip down into the tub.  Instead, just measure straight across the tub from front to back for length; side to side for width; and for the depth, measure from the outside of the tub starting on the bathroom floor and going straight up vertically to the top of the tub.  Be sure to include the deck of the tub when measuring for length and width - not just the opening of the tub itself - because the deck is part of what will be refinished.

SHOWERS

Tile, Fiberglass, Acrylic, or Cultured Marble?
Height and width of shower walls?
Length and width of Floor (3x3, 3x4, etc.)?

CHIP REPAIR

Bathtub, Sink, Shower, Shower Floor?

Describe the damage (chips, rust, cracks, holes) - how it happened, how long it's been there, if it's gotten worse over time, etc.

When taking pictures of the damage, zoom in and out so that I can see the damage (taping a coin next to the damage will help isolate it in the picture), and also be able to gain perspective as to the size and location of the damage in relation to the rest of the fixture.  Keep in mind I'm trying to see what you see.
