About Us
Who is WhiteTubs? WhiteTubs is a bathtub refinishing company serving Chicago since 2007. We help homeowners and property managers restore worn, stained, or damaged bathtubs without demolition—so the bathroom looks clean and bright again without the mess and cost of replacement.
We specialize in a modern pour-on, self-leveling coating system (not spray paint). When done with proper preparation and technique, refinishing delivers a smooth, glossy finish designed for everyday use—especially on cast iron and steel tubs common across Chicago.
What sets us apart? We never stop improving.

We treat every bathroom with care—masking, protection, clean-up, and respect for your home
Over the years, we’ve refinished thousands of bathtubs—each with its own condition and challenges. That experience helps us confidently handle everything from heavy staining and dull surfaces to chips, peeling, and rough texture.
We’ve found that a pour-on, self-leveling restoration approach consistently delivers strong results in whiteness, smoothness, durability, and value—so it’s the method most customers choose.
At the same time, every bathroom is different. If your tub has special conditions (previous coatings, unusual shape, or other issues), we’ll review it and recommend the most practical option.

Our Specialists
At WhiteTubs, our greatest asset is our people. Their experience and attention to detail allow them to transform worn tubs into a clean, like-new surface. Even bathtubs that look “beyond saving” often can be restored with the right preparation and system.
No two situations are alike. That’s why our technicians take time to evaluate the tub’s condition and recommend the best path—so you get predictable results and long-term value.
Skilled beyond refinishing
Our specialists are experienced not only in bathtub refinishing, but also in common bathroom hardware and basic plumbing-related details that often come up during projects. This helps avoid delays and supports a smoother, more reliable service experience.
Professional-grade materials + proven process
High-quality results come from the combination of materials, preparation, and technique. We work with professional-grade coating systems and maintain consistent standards across jobs, so results look great and perform well over time.
We also prioritize comfort for occupied homes whenever possible—keeping the process clean, controlled, and well-ventilated.
Safety documentation & warranty
If needed, we can provide documentation confirming product safety and authenticity. Most importantly, every job is backed by an ironclad 5-year warranty.
With proper care, many customers enjoy results far beyond the warranty period. In normal residential use, a professionally refinished surface can last for years.
We respect your time
Our team is available 8 AM to 8 PM daily to answer questions, confirm availability, and help you schedule. In many cases, we can book service as soon as the next day, depending on the schedule and your location.
