We’re all trying to make more environmentally conscious choices these days. We bring reusable bags to the grocery store, we recycle, and we’re mindful of our energy consumption. But have you ever thought about the environmental impact of a home renovation?

A typical bathroom remodel is incredibly wasteful. A perfectly functional—if a bit ugly—cast iron or porcelain bathtub gets smashed to pieces and hauled off to a landfill, where it will sit for centuries. Add to that the old tile, drywall, and packaging from new materials, and you have a mountain of construction debris.

There is a greener way. A more sustainable choice. Reglazing.

Reglazing is, at its core, an act of restoration and preservation. It’s the ultimate form of recycling for your bathroom fixtures.

Here’s why it’s the eco-friendly choice:

• It keeps fixtures out of landfills: The single biggest benefit is that your existing bathtub and tiles stay exactly where they are. We’re not throwing anything away; we’re simply giving it a beautiful and durable new surface.
• It reduces manufacturing demand: By refinishing your current tub, you eliminate the need to manufacture, package, and ship a brand new one, saving all the energy and resources that process consumes.
• No major demolition: Since we’re not tearing anything out, we’re not creating a pile of rubble and dust. It’s a cleaner process for your home and for the environment.

Choosing to reglaze is a vote for sustainability. It’s a conscious decision to reduce waste and conserve resources, all while achieving a stunning, modern look for your bathroom. You can feel good knowing that your beautiful new space didn’t come at the expense of the planet.
