You may have just bought a rental property that will need renovations, or you may have a tenant turnover in one of your rentals that needs some TLC before you move your new tenant in.
Your contractor is compiling the scope of work, and on that SOW, they have included a tub that has chipped or some minor damage, is old looking, and needs to be reglazed or replaced.
So, now, what do you do? Will you reglaze, or will you replace it?
Reglazing and replacing a bathtub are two options for updating or renovating a bathroom. Each approach comes with its own set of advantages and disadvantages.
To help you make that decision, here is a list of pros and cons of reglazing a bathtub compared to replacing it.

Ultimately, the decision between reglazing and replacing a bathtub depends on your budget, the condition of the current tub, your preferences, and the overall scope of your bathroom renovation project.
If the existing bathtub is in relatively good condition and you're looking for a cost-effective way to refresh its appearance, reglazing could be a suitable option. Or if you are planning a complete bathroom remodel a few years down the road, reglazing for now is an excellent alternative.
However, if the bathtub is severely damaged or outdated, or you want a significant upgrade, replacing it may be the better choice for a long-lasting and more customized solution.
Either way, it is always good to have choices. Just remember to do your due diligence to help make an educated decision.
