Your Shower Refinishing Pros

If you live in Portland, you know how quickly showers can lose their shine. Hard water from the Willamette Valley, soap buildup, and years of daily use can leave your shower looking stained, dull, or outdated. I’ve helped homeowners in neighborhoods from Sellwood to Laurelhurst refresh their bathrooms without the mess or cost of a full remodel. We're your first choice for Shower Refinishing in Portland, OR.

Just last month, a couple in the Alberta Arts District called me because their shower tiles were scratched and discolored. They thought replacement was the only option, but after refinishing, the shower looked brand new — and they saved thousands of dollars in the process. Stories like this are why Renew-It Refinishing has been Portland’s trusted choice since 1994.

Shower refinishing is more than a facelift. It’s a professional process that restores your shower surface, extends its lifespan, and gives your bathroom a modern look in just a day or two. Our team uses advanced coatings, precise preparation, and a written guarantee, so you can feel confident in the results.

Whether you’re in a classic Portland bungalow or a newer Vancouver-area home, shower refinishing offers an affordable, eco-friendly way to upgrade your bathroom. And right now, new clients can take advantage of our Limited Time Offer: Save 15% on refinishing services. Learn more below about our professional bathroom remodeling in Portland, OR or call us today to get started.

Service Details: Shower Refinishing in Portland, OR

Shower refinishing is the process of restoring your existing shower — tile, fiberglass, or acrylic — to look brand new without replacing it. Instead of tearing out walls or hauling debris through your home, we deep-clean, repair, and apply a durable coating that bonds to the surface. The result? A fresh, glossy, modern shower that lasts for years.

The Renew-It Refinishing Process

  • Thorough Prep Work – We remove soap scum, mineral deposits, and old caulking so the new finish adheres perfectly.
  • Surface Repairs – Chips, cracks, and worn spots are filled and smoothed.
  • Protective Coating – We apply professional-grade finishes designed for Portland’s climate and water conditions.
  • Cure & Seal – The final step ensures a strong, moisture-resistant surface that’s ready for daily use.

Why Portland Homeowners Choose Refinishing

In Portland’s older neighborhoods like Irvington, Sellwood, and Laurelhurst, many homes still have original bathrooms. Refinishing preserves that charm while updating the look and extending the life of your shower. For newer homes in areas like Happy Valley or Vancouver, refinishing prevents premature replacement costs.

Our Guarantees

Every refinishing service comes with the Renew-It written guarantee. If your shower doesn’t meet our durability standards, we’ll make it right. That’s why local families have trusted us since 1994.

Refinishing costs a fraction of replacement, avoids construction mess, and is eco-friendly since you’re not sending old materials to the landfill. Many Portland homeowners save thousands this way.

But if you are already remodeling your bathroom than replacement may be the best option.

With proper care, a refinished shower typically lasts 10–15 years. Our written guarantee ensures durability and performance for the life of your shower.

Absolutely. We repair damage and smooth the surface before applying coatings. Even showers with hard water stains or small cracks can be restored.
