Why pay for a Global Bath Insert and not just resurface or paint my old bath?
|
|
|
Re-surfacing or “spray painting” your bath is a quick fix. In the long term you will need to have it reapplied as the paint cracks and peels, unfortunately it also often blisters or discolors. Do it once and do it right, is always the best motto, that's why you want a Global Bath Insertwith our 10 year factory backed warrantee.

Why not just rip out the old one?
|
|
|
This process takes from 4 days up to a week and beyond. It causes disturbance to your plumbing, tiling and sometimes even your walls. Costs for the whole process sit well over $1200.00 depending on the work done.
