Owner Operated Bathtub Reglazing Across Toronto and the GTA
Shawn quotes every job, preps every surface, sprays every coat, and stands behind every warranty. There is no crew. No subcontractors. No junior technician doing the work while someone else’s name is on the invoice. One person handles the entire job from the first text message to the final coat of TopKote 2K urethane. That is how bathtub reglazing works when the person doing the work is the same person who built the reputation. Fifteen years across Toronto and the Greater Toronto Area. Same standard, every time.
15+ Years Experience | Owner Operated | $2M CGL + WSIB Insured | 5 Year Warranty
Why One Person Does Every Job
In this industry, most companies send a different technician to every job. The person who answers the phone is not the person who shows up. The person who shows up may have six months of experience or six years. You do not know until they are standing in your bathroom.
Shawn works differently. He is the one who answers when you text photos of your tub. He is the one who confirms the price. He is the one who arrives, sets up, sands, primes, sprays, cleans up, and walks you through the aftercare. And he is the one who comes back if anything goes wrong within the warranty period.
This matters because reglazing is a skill trade. The difference between a finish that lasts 12 years and one that peels in 12 months comes down to how the surface was prepared, what coating was used, and how it was applied. Those three things depend entirely on the person holding the spray gun.
Fifteen years of doing this work means Shawn has seen every tub type, every surface condition, and every building situation in the GTA. Cast iron tubs from the 1950s in East York bungalows. Acrylic inserts from the 1990s in Mississauga townhouses. Porcelain on steel in North York high rises. Clawfoot tubs in restored Victorians in the Annex. Jacuzzi tubs in Vaughan custom builds. Each one has its own prep requirements, its own challenges, and its own solution. That knowledge does not come from a training manual. It comes from doing the work, year after year, tub after tub.
When the person who quotes the job is the same person who does the job and the same person who warranties the job, there is no gap between what was promised and what gets delivered. That is the point of owner operated.
What Separates a Professional Reglazing from a Budget One
TopKote 2K Urethane, Not Cheap Epoxy
The coating is the most important decision in a reglazing job. Shawn uses TopKote 2K urethane, a two component system that cures into a hard, non porous finish. It resists chipping, staining, and yellowing for 10 to 15 years under normal use. Budget operators use single component epoxy or lacquer coatings that yellow within a year and start peeling within two. The material costs more. The result lasts five to seven times longer.
HVLP Spray, Not Brush and Roller
The application method determines how the finish looks and how it holds up. Shawn uses an HVLP (high volume, low pressure) spray system that lays down an even coat with no brush marks, no roller texture, and no trapped air bubbles. Brush and roller application leaves visible texture and creates weak points where the coating fails first. A spray finish looks factory applied. A rolled finish looks painted.
Proper Sanding, Not Shortcuts
Surface preparation is where most failed reglazings went wrong. Shawn sands every tub with 40 grit followed by 150 grit to create the mechanical profile the coating bonds to. A bonding agent goes on before the topcoat. Skipping the sanding or using the wrong grit is the number one reason reglazings peel. There are no shortcuts in this step.
Written Warranty, Not a Handshake
Every residential job comes with a 5 year written warranty covering peeling, chipping, and adhesion failure under normal use. Commercial jobs carry a 1 year warranty. The warranty is part of the written contract, not a verbal promise. If the finish fails within the warranty period, Shawn comes back and fixes it. That is the difference between confidence in the work and hope that it holds.

Licensed, Insured, and Compliant with Ontario Law
$2 Million Commercial General Liability
Shawn carries $2 million in commercial general liability (CGL) coverage. This protects your property, your building, and any third party in the event of damage or injury during the job. For condo work, the condo corporation can be named as an additional insured on the policy. The certificate is provided before any scheduled work.
WSIB Registered and Cleared
The Workplace Safety and Insurance Board (WSIB) clearance certificate confirms that Shawn is registered and in good standing for workplace safety coverage. This protects property owners from liability for workplace injuries. Condo boards, property managers, and commercial clients require this document. It is provided with every job.
Ontario Consumer Protection Act
Every reglazing job over $50 includes a written contract as required by the Ontario Consumer Protection Act. The contract covers the scope of work, total price, materials used, warranty terms, and a 10 day cooling off period during which you can cancel without penalty. This is not a company policy. It is Ontario law, and it protects you.

Trusted by Homeowners, Landlords, and Property Managers Across the GTA
Homeowners and Condo Owners
Bathtubs in houses and condos across the GTA that are structurally sound but cosmetically worn. Chips, stains, yellowing, and outdated colours covered with a durable white finish in one visit. No plumbing changes, no permits, no tile damage. The tub stays in the floor and looks new by the end of the day.
Condo reglazing details →Landlords and Property Managers
Unit turnover is the best time to reglaze. The unit is empty, access is simple, and the 48 hour cure does not inconvenience anyone. Reglazing qualifies as a current repair expense under CRA guidelines, deductible in the same tax year. Volume pricing available when multiple tubs are booked together.
Landlord and PM details →Real Estate Agents
A worn bathtub photographs badly and gives buyers a reason to subtract thousands from their offer. Reglazing removes that objection for $400 to $650. The tub looks new in listing photos. The 5 year warranty transfers to the buyer, a detail worth mentioning during showings.
Agent pre-listing strategy →Airbnb Hosts, Hotels, and Hospitality
Guest reviews mention bathroom condition. Every day a room is offline is lost revenue. Reglazing takes one morning and the room is back in rotation 48 hours later. Same finish, same warranty, room after room. Shawn works with short term rental hosts, boutique hotels, and hospitality properties across the GTA.
