Shower Pan & Base Refinishing in Chicago
Restore the shower base — keep the tile
Shower pans live under constant moisture, cleaning chemicals, and daily use. Over time they crack, stain, and wear through — even when the rest of the bathroom still looks fine. We repair the damage and restore the base with a pour-on coating, so you skip demolition, tile removal, and full replacement.

What we refinish
Shower pans and bases
Surface repair plus a self-leveling pour-on coating — one system, one visit. We work with bases made of:
Fiberglass
Cast iron
Steel
Artificial stone
Each shower base is evaluated individually — we confirm refinishing is the right solution before any work starts.
What we fix on shower bases
Cracks in acrylic or fiberglass
Repaired and reinforced from the top before the coating goes on.
Chips and impact damage
Filled and leveled so the repair disappears under a uniform coat.
Worn, scratched, dull surfaces
Smoothed and brought back to an even gloss.
Stains that won’t come out
Sealed under a fresh, non-porous surface.
Failed or peeling coatings
Old coatings stripped and the base recoated properly.
Flexing or weak spots
Areas weakened by poor installation are reinforced where possible.

Add-onsAdditional services
Pour-on for shower bases
Instead of spray or brush reglazing, the coating is poured and self-levels — no brush marks, no overspray, a uniform look even on complex shapes. It works especially well on pans with slopes, curves, and non-standard layouts.
When refinishing is the right call
- The base is structurally intact
- Damage is limited to surface wear, cracks, or chips
- You want to avoid tile removal and demolition
- Replacement would cost far more
With severe structural failure, we’ll say so and recommend alternatives.
What you avoid
- Demolition and construction mess
- The cost of a new base and installation
- Days without a shower
- An old pan going to the landfill
Refinishing extends the life of a shower base by years.
Process
How the visit goes
- Thorough cleaning and surface preparation
- Repairing cracks, chips, and weak areas
- Reinforcing damaged sections when necessary
- Applying the self-leveling pour-on coating
- Controlled curing for durability
Most projects take 3–4 hours on site; the shower is ready to use after curing.

This video shows selected moments from a bathtub reglazing project in Brooklyn using high-quality liquid acrylic. It’s not the full restoration process, but rather a few highlights — including the final glossy result.
At the end, we run a coin across the surface to test the durability of the finish. No scratches. No marks. Just a tough, long-lasting coating.
If you’re considering restoring your tub in NYC — this is what quality results look like.

Honest expectations: final results depend on the condition of the existing base; repaired areas may not be identical to factory-new material; proper aftercare matters for long-term performance; and not every shower pan is a candidate. We explain all of this before starting any work.
