In senior care facilities, every detail matters — especially in the bathroom. Slippery surfaces, chipped tubs, or stained tile can increase the risk of falls, reduce comfort, and affect the perception of cleanliness. That’s why more nursing homes and assisted living communities in Charlotte are turning to bathtub refinishing services to keep their bathrooms clean, safe, and inviting — without the hassle of full replacement.
Two Refinishing Methods — One Clear Winner for Senior Living
There are two main methods of bathtub refinishing: spray refinishing and the pour-on method.
- Spray refinishing involves spraying a thin layer of coating over the surface. This process releases strong, toxic fumes (often containing isocyanates, methylene chloride, or MEK) and requires residents to vacate the premises during and after the work. The coating is thin, prone to peeling, and can start degrading in just a few months — especially under bath mats or if there’s a dripping faucet.
- Our pour-on method is completely different. It’s odor-free, 10x thicker, and safe to apply while residents remain in the building. The coating cures within 24 hours, resulting in a mirror-smooth finish that’s not only beautiful but durable enough to resist wear from bath mats and water exposure.
Comfort and Safety for Seniors
The smooth, high-gloss finish we achieve with the pour-on method isn’t just about looks — it helps improve hygiene and safety:
- Easy-to-clean surface prevents dirt and bacteria from building up in cracks or stains
- No chipping or peeling, so there’s less risk of cuts or sharp edges
- No harsh chemical odors, ensuring safe air quality for elderly residents
- Slip-resistant options available for added safety
Whether it’s a private assisted living suite or a shared bathing facility, refinished tubs and showers help staff maintain cleanliness and improve residents’ comfort.
No Disruption to Daily Operations
One of the biggest challenges in senior care facilities is avoiding disruption. Spray refinishing often forces rooms to be closed off for multiple days due to toxicity and fumes. But with our odor-free pour-on bathtub refinishing, rooms can stay occupied, and the space is ready to use just 24 hours later.
This makes it the perfect solution for nursing homes, rehab centers, and long-term care facilities across Charlotte.
