Bathtub Refinishing in Gettysburg, PA

One of our clients in Gettysburg, PA had several health and safety issue to be addressed in their aging home. The bathroom in the home was functional, and it even had a few items to assist in mobility; however, there were some pretty obvious signs of age that were creating risk when it comes to keeping a home dry and preventing mold (one of HUD’s “8 Principles of a Healthy Home”). Our team identified their tub as a potential risk during the health and safety assessment. Old caulking had shrunken away from the wall and exposed a gap between the tile and the tub. The tub itself had a few areas where the finish had cracked and peeled over time. This kind of exposure could lead to leaks and mold growth in areas under the tub, which could spread through the house if not noticed quickly.

Our team was able to have the tub professionally refinished, a more affordable alternative than a full replacement. And funds were able to be used on other health and safety priorities around the home. Our team helps you recognize potential hazards and prioritizes the repair checklist with your input. We want your home to work for you!
