Bathtub Refinishing • Pacific Palisades, CA
Ready to Restore the Premium Surfaces in Your Pacific Palisades Home?
Pacific Palisades homes were built to last, and so was the company you call to restore them. Porcelain & Fiberglass Maintenance has been refinishing premium bathroom and kitchen surfaces since 1955, endorsed in writing by both Kohler and American Standard, and trusted by the Beverly Hilton and properties of comparable standing throughout Southern California.
Pacific Palisades is one of Los Angeles’s most storied residential communities. The homes along Sunset Boulevard, Palisades Drive, Albright Street, and the streets that run toward Will Rogers State Beach have been built and maintained to a standard that reflects the neighborhood’s position in the Los Angeles landscape. The bathrooms in the best of these homes have fixtures and surfaces that were premium when they were installed and that are worth restoring with the same level of care.
Pacific Palisades has also experienced significant loss from wildfire. Many families are rebuilding or restoring properties in the neighborhood, and bathroom surface restoration is a meaningful part of that process for homes where the structure survived but smoke and ash damage affected interior surfaces.
Porcelain & Fiberglass Maintenance has been the refinishing company for premium Southern California properties since 1955. We hold written endorsements from both Kohler and American Standard. Our aerospace-grade coatings produce finishes that last 10 to 15 years. In Pacific Palisades, where the quality of everything in and around the home is taken seriously, the credentials behind the refinishing company you choose matter.
One more credential worth knowing. BuildZoom scores us at 96 out of 100, placing us in the top 20% of 336,931 licensed contractors across California. Active California Synthetic Products License 571117, verified May 2025. Check it at buildzoom.com/contractor/porcelain-fiberglass-maintenance.

Why Pacific Palisades Homeowners Choose Restoration Over Replacement
The homes in Pacific Palisades were built with materials and fixtures that modern construction rarely matches at any price. Here is what our technicians encounter most often in Pacific Palisades, and why restoration is almost always the right answer.
Original cast iron and premium porcelain fixtures in established Pacific Palisades homes. The properties built in the 1940s, 1950s, and 1960s throughout the Palisades Highlands and the streets south of Sunset frequently have original cast iron tubs with fired porcelain that represent the highest level of fixture manufacturing. The porcelain chips and yellows over decades of use, but the tub itself is structurally superior to almost anything available as a replacement. We restore these fixtures to the condition they were in when they were first installed.
Natural stone throughout luxury Pacific Palisades renovations. The renovated and newer-build homes in Pacific Palisades frequently have natural marble and travertine throughout the master bathroom and kitchen. Stone dulls, scratches, and loses the reflective clarity it had when it was first installed. Diamond honing removes the surface damage. Polishing brings the depth back. Most refinishing companies on the Westside do not offer this at the level we do.
Post-wildfire surface restoration for Pacific Palisades properties. Homes in Pacific Palisades that survived recent wildfires may have smoke and ash residue that has penetrated bathroom surfaces. Porcelain and fiberglass surfaces can be professionally cleaned, prepared, and refinished even after smoke exposure. For homeowners who are restoring properties rather than rebuilding, this is a meaningful service. We can assess whether a surface is restorable or whether more extensive work is needed.
Custom tile and premium enclosures in Pacific Palisades estate properties. The estate-level properties in the upper Palisades frequently have custom tile showers, premium enclosures, and specialty surfaces that represent significant original investments. When these surfaces degrade, restoration preserves the original work at a fraction of the replacement cost.

Tile, laminate, and cultured marble countertops throughout Pacific Palisades homes are refinishable. Our countertop service restores the surface and reseals grout lines on tile.
Diamond honing and polishing of natural marble and travertine is a specialty that Pacific Palisades properties require consistently.

The Expertise Pacific Palisades Properties Require
Every Pacific Palisades job is handled by a trained technician who works directly for Porcelain & Fiberglass Maintenance. Our technicians understand the difference between a 1948 cast-iron tub in a Palisades Highlands home and a 2018 freestanding soaker in a renovated master bathroom. They know why preparation work on vintage porcelain takes longer. They know what proper post-wildfire surface assessment involves.
Family-owned since 1955. Same standards throughout. Pacific Palisades has always been a market where the quality of the refinishing company matters. That is why we hold endorsements from Kohler and American Standard that no other refinishing company in this market can claim.

Frequently Asked Questions About Bathtub Refinishing in Pacific Palisades, CA
My Pacific Palisades home experienced smoke damage from a recent wildfire. Can the bathroom surfaces be refinished, or do they need to be replaced?
This depends on the extent of the damage and the type of surface. Porcelain and fiberglass surfaces that have absorbed smoke residue can often be professionally cleaned, prepared, and refinished if the structural integrity of the fixture is intact. We assess the condition of the surface in person before recommending any scope of work. For Pacific Palisades homeowners navigating post-wildfire restoration, we recommend a free on-site assessment before committing to any surface treatment decision.
My Pacific Palisades home was built in 1952 and still has the original cast-iron tub. My contractor recommends replacing it. Should I?
We would look at it before accepting that recommendation. A 1952 cast-iron tub was manufactured to a standard that very few modern fixtures match at any price point. If the porcelain surface is chipped and discolored but the cast iron itself is sound, refinishing restores the tub to the way it looked when it was first installed. Replacing it means losing a fixture of that quality permanently. We give you a straight assessment when our technician sees the tub.
How much does bathtub refinishing cost in Pacific Palisades, CA?
The cost depends on the fixture’s material, size, condition, and the extent of surface repair required. For Pacific Palisades properties with vintage or premium fixtures, the specifics are best discussed during a free quote visit. We give no-obligation quotes for every Pacific Palisades job. Call 1-800-719-6996.
Can you restore natural marble and travertine in my Pacific Palisades master bathroom?
Yes. Diamond honing removes the surface scratches and mineral etching that cause natural stone to appear dull. Polishing restores the original depth and clarity of both marble and travertine. We work on countertops, shower walls, and stone floors throughout Pacific Palisades. Most refinishing companies serving the Westside do not offer this service at the level we do.
How long does a refinished surface last in Pacific Palisades, CA?
With proper care, 10 to 15 years or more. Non-abrasive cleaners, no suction-cup bath mats, and rinsing after each use are the main care factors. For Pacific Palisades homes near the coast, avoiding abrasive cleaners is especially important. We walk every customer through the care routine before we leave.
Can you work with the restoration contractor managing my Pacific Palisades wildfire rebuild?
Yes. We coordinate with restoration contractors and general contractors on Pacific Palisades rebuild and renovation projects. We assess surfaces, provide recommendations, schedule around the project timeline, and communicate directly with the project manager. Call 1-800-719-6996 to discuss your specific project requirements.
Can you refinish custom tile in my Pacific Palisades home without removing the original tile work?
Yes. Our ceramic tile refinishing process applies a fresh glaze coat over the existing tile and seals all grout lines. The original tile is not disturbed, removed, or replaced. The shower or bathroom looks renewed while every piece of the original tile work remains exactly in place.
