PORCELAIN & FIBERGLASS REFINISHING EXPERTS
Looking for the Most Trusted Bathtub Refinishing Company in Los Angeles County?
Porcelain & Fiberglass Maintenance, Inc. has served homeowners, property managers, and hospitality clients throughout Los Angeles County since 1955. As our name reflects, porcelain bathtub refinishing and fiberglass tub refinishing are two of our core specialties. Over those decades, we have refinished more than 400,000 surfaces across Southern California and earned written endorsements from both Kohler and American Standard.
From our North Hollywood office, we provide porcelain and fiberglass refinishing along with shower, sink, countertop, and tile services throughout the county. Our goal has remained straightforward: identify the surface material, complete the preparation and repairs it requires, and apply a durable finish without the cost and disruption of replacement.
Los Angeles County includes nearly every kind of residential and commercial property. We work in apartment buildings with frequent tenant turnover, mid-century homes with original fixtures, beachside condominiums, hotels, high-rise buildings, and custom estates. That variety matters because the right preparation process depends on the material, its condition, and how the finished surface will be used.
Our written endorsements from Kohler and American Standard are an important part of that history. Both companies evaluated our coatings and preparation process before endorsing our work. For customers who have dealt with a peeling or short-lived finish in the past, those credentials provide something concrete to consider alongside our decades of experience.
BuildZoom lists Porcelain & Fiberglass Maintenance with a score of 96 out of 100, placing the company in the top 20% of 336,931 licensed California contractors. California Synthetic Products License 571117 was verified in May 2025. The listing can be reviewed at BuildZoom.

Who We Serve Across Los Angeles County
Refinishing needs can look very different from one property to the next. A landlord preparing several apartments for new tenants has a different schedule and budget from a homeowner restoring an original porcelain tub. We work with both, along with several other types of customers across the county.
Property managers and landlords. Rental properties often have narrow turnover windows, especially when several units need work at the same time. We offer scheduling built around those windows, direct invoicing to property management companies, and volume pricing for qualifying commercial accounts. The aim is consistent work from one unit to the next without unnecessary delays or repeat visits.
Homeowners in established neighborhoods. Many homes throughout the San Fernando Valley, Pasadena, Whittier, and the South Bay still have original fixtures worth preserving. When the fixture is structurally sound, refinishing can restore its appearance without removing a well-made tub, sink, or tile surround. Under normal residential use and with proper care, our finishes can last 10 to 15 years.
Luxury and estate properties. Premium fixtures, natural stone, freestanding tubs, and custom tile require careful evaluation before work begins. In addition to standard refinishing, we provide natural stone diamond honing and polishing, soaking tub restoration, and detailed surface work for properties in communities such as Bel Air, Brentwood, Malibu, Pacific Palisades, and Rolling Hills Estates.
Short-term rental operators. Guest-facing bathrooms need to look clean in person and in listing photos, but they also need to withstand frequent use. Our commercial-grade coatings give operators a practical way to update worn surfaces without scheduling a full bathroom renovation.
Hotels and other commercial properties. Our past clients include the Beverly Hilton, the Biltmore Los Angeles, Hilton Hotels, Holiday Inn, the Westin Bonaventure, and Radisson. Work at this scale depends on reliable scheduling, clear communication, and finishes designed for regular use.

Refinishing and Reglazing Services Available Across Los Angeles County
We offer eight surface refinishing and restoration services for residential, rental, hospitality, and commercial properties.
Bathtub Refinishing
Our technicians provide porcelain and fiberglass bathtub refinishing for clawfoot tubs, freestanding soaking tubs, fiberglass tub and shower combinations, and standard alcove tubs found in apartments and single-family rentals. We also work with acrylic, cast iron, cultured marble, and enameled steel when the fixture is suitable for refinishing.
The coating is designed to bond with the properly prepared surface instead of simply resting on top of it. Matching that preparation to the tub material helps the finish hold up to normal use and is one reason our residential finishes can last 10 to 15 years with proper care.
- Surface cleaning and chemical degreasing
- Repair of chips, cracks, rust, and other damage
- Application of our proprietary multi-coat finish
- A smooth, glossy finish in the selected color
- Complete cleanup when the work is finished
- Care instructions to help protect the new surface
Shower Refinishing
Shower refinishing can renew prefab fiberglass stalls, tub and shower combinations, custom tile showers, walk-in showers, and corner enclosures. The new waterproof finish is applied over the properly prepared existing surface, which avoids the demolition involved in replacement.
Staining, yellowing, and visible surface wear can often be addressed during one service visit. A non-slip texture may also be applied to the shower floor when requested, which can be useful for older residents and families with young children.
Sink Refinishing
A chipped or discolored sink can make an otherwise clean bathroom or kitchen look neglected. We refinish porcelain, ceramic, fiberglass, and cultured marble sinks in homes, rental units, and commercial properties.
Customers often schedule sink refinishing with a bathtub or countertop project. When the surfaces are suitable, one technician can address several of them during the same visit, reducing the number of appointments needed to update the room.
Countertop Refinishing
Tile, laminate, and cultured marble countertops can often be restored without removing the cabinets beneath them. Refinishing updates the visible surface, while sealing the grout lines on a tile countertop helps create a cleaner and more uniform appearance.
For natural marble and travertine countertops, we also offer diamond honing and polishing to restore depth and clarity. This specialized service is available for properties throughout the Westside, South Bay, and other Los Angeles County communities.
Ceramic Tile Refinishing
Older bathroom tile is often structurally sound even when its glaze has worn down or the grout has absorbed years of soap residue and hard-water buildup. At that point, ordinary cleaning may no longer restore an even appearance.
Our ceramic tile refinishing process applies a fresh glaze to the tile and seals the grout lines. Property owners commonly choose this service before listing a home, during rental turnover, or when they want to preserve original tile that would be difficult or expensive to reproduce.
Senior Bathtub Conversion
Stepping over the side of a standard bathtub can become difficult as mobility changes. A senior bathtub conversion creates a lower entry point in the existing tub, making access easier without removing the entire fixture.
Our service includes cutting the step-in opening, refinishing the tub surface, and applying a non-slip coating to the floor. Most conversions can be completed in one day without demolition and are available throughout Los Angeles County.
Faux Stone Finish
Our Faux Stone Finish uses a speckled glaze to create a granite-like appearance on countertops, sinks, shower walls, tub surrounds, and backsplashes. It gives property owners another way to update dated surfaces while keeping the existing fixture or countertop in place.
The finish is made for regular use in wet environments and resists moisture and stains. It works particularly well on laminate countertops and molded sink units where a solid-color finish may not provide the desired look.
Surface Restoration
Some fixtures need more than a new finish. Deep chips in porcelain, fiberglass cracks around hardware, rust near older plumbing fittings, and cuts in laminate countertops may require repair before refinishing begins.
Our restoration service combines the necessary repairs with refinishing for a wide range of bathroom and kitchen surfaces. When several suitable surfaces are included in one appointment, this approach can help landlords and property managers prepare a unit without coordinating multiple contractors.
Why Material-Specific Refinishing Experience Matters
The company was built around porcelain and fiberglass surface work, and that material-specific experience remains central to what we do. A porcelain bathtub may need attention for worn glaze, chips, or rust, while fiberglass bathtub refinishing may involve cracks, worn areas, or movement in the surface. Recognizing those differences before applying the coating is essential to a durable result.
Surface preparation has a direct effect on how a refinished tub, shower, sink, or countertop performs. A coating applied over residue, moisture, or unrepaired damage may begin to separate long before it should. This is why we treat preparation as part of the job rather than a step to rush through.
Our technicians work directly for Porcelain and Fiberglass Maintenance, Inc. They are not subcontractors or independent franchise operators. Each technician is trained in our preparation protocol and coating process, including how to approach different materials and property conditions.
That experience also helps when a project involves more than the surface itself. Coastal properties may require different considerations from inland rentals, while high-rise condominiums and gated estates often involve access rules, elevator reservations, or coordination with an HOA. These details are familiar to a company that has worked throughout the county since 1955.
Porcelain and Fiberglass Maintenance remains family-owned and operates from the same North Hollywood base that has served Southern California customers for more than seven decades. Our history, manufacturer endorsements, and repeat commercial relationships give customers several ways to evaluate us before scheduling the work.
Commercial Refinishing for Los Angeles Property Managers
Managing 20, 50, or more than 100 rental units requires a refinishing partner who understands turnover schedules. A missed appointment or inconsistent result can delay cleaning, inspection, and the arrival of the next tenant.
Our commercial accounts are structured around those practical concerns. We can coordinate back-to-back units in the same building, schedule work around property access, invoice the management company directly, and provide volume pricing for accounts with multiple properties.
The same team that works in local rental units has also completed surface refinishing for the Beverly Hilton, the Biltmore Los Angeles, Hilton Hotels, Holiday Inn, the Westin Bonaventure, and Radisson. Those projects reflect our ability to work within larger operations where timing, communication, and consistent results matter.
If you manage a Los Angeles County rental portfolio, call us to discuss the properties, the surfaces involved, and the schedule you need to meet.

Frequently Asked Questions About Our Refinishing Services in Los Angeles
How do I choose a bathtub refinishing company in Los Angeles County?
Look for credentials you can verify, a long record of completed work, and clear information about how the surface will be prepared. Porcelain and Fiberglass Maintenance has operated since 1955, holds written endorsements from Kohler and American Standard, and has a BuildZoom score of 96. These details give customers more than advertising claims to consider when comparing companies.
How long does bathtub refinishing last?
With proper care, our bathtub finishes can last 10 to 15 years or longer under normal residential use. Longevity depends on surface preparation, how the fixture is used, and how it is cleaned. We recommend non-abrasive cleaners, rinsing after use, and avoiding suction-cup mats that may pull against the coating.
Can you refinish both porcelain and fiberglass bathtubs?
Yes. Porcelain bathtub refinishing and fiberglass tub refinishing are long-standing specialties of Porcelain and Fiberglass Maintenance. Before work begins, we identify the material and inspect its condition because porcelain and fiberglass require different repair and preparation methods. We then address chips, rust, cracks, worn areas, or other suitable surface damage before applying the finish.
How much does bathtub refinishing cost in Los Angeles County?
Cost depends on the tub’s material, size, condition, and the repairs needed before refinishing. Because those details vary, we provide a free, no-obligation quote for each project instead of publishing a price that may not apply to the surface. Call 1-800-719-6996 to discuss your tub.
Do you serve all of Los Angeles County?
Yes. We serve communities throughout Los Angeles County from our North Hollywood office, including the San Fernando Valley, the Westside, South Los Angeles, the South Bay, the San Gabriel Valley, and the northeastern foothill communities.
Can you handle several apartment buildings or a large number of units?
Yes. Multi-building commercial accounts are a regular part of our work. We can coordinate scheduling across properties, maintain the same preparation and application process from unit to unit, provide direct invoicing, and offer volume pricing for qualifying accounts. Call 1-800-719-6996 to discuss your portfolio.
How long does bathtub refinishing take?
Most bathtub refinishing appointments take about three to five hours on site. The coating then needs a 24-hour curing period before the tub is used, so the bathroom is generally ready the following day.
Is bathtub refinishing suitable for a home with children, older residents, or pets?
The work area should remain unoccupied during application and throughout the required curing period. Once the coating has fully cured, the surface is non-toxic and suitable for normal household use. Customers should follow the access, ventilation, and care instructions provided for the specific project.
Can you work in a high-rise condominium or gated estate?
Yes. We regularly work in high-rise buildings, gated communities, and estate properties. Let us know about HOA requirements, parking restrictions, elevator reservations, or other access procedures when scheduling so we can plan the visit properly.
