Bathtub Refinishing in Riverside, Avondale, and Murray Hill Jacksonville, FL

Glover Refinishing provides bathtub refinishing, tub and tile refinishing, tile and shower refinishing, countertop and sink refinishing, and antique sink and tub restoration throughout Jacksonville's established neighborhoods — including Riverside, Avondale, Murray Hill, Ortega, San Marco, and Springfield.

Older Homes, Original Surfaces

Riverside, Avondale, Murray Hill, and the neighborhoods surrounding them represent some of Jacksonville's oldest and most established residential areas. Homes here often carry original cast iron tubs, porcelain surfaces, vintage tile surrounds, and countertop surfaces that were built to last — and frequently still can, with the right approach.


Replacing these surfaces means losing what makes them worth keeping. Refinishing works with what's already there, restoring the appearance and extending the useful life of surfaces that replacement cannot replicate.


We have more than 35 years of experience evaluating and working with the types of surfaces common in older Jacksonville-area housing stock. Our process begins with a surface assessment before any recommendation is made — because what's appropriate for a newer acrylic tub may not be the right approach for a cast iron original.

Common Questions About Refinishing in Jacksonville's Older Neighborhoods

  • Can older cast iron and porcelain tubs be refinished?

    In many cases, yes. Cast iron and porcelain surfaces found in older Jacksonville-area homes are frequently good candidates for refinishing — depending on their current condition. We evaluate the surface before making a recommendation. For clawfoot tubs and antique cast iron fixtures, we offer dedicated Antique Fixture Refinishing service.

  • Do you refinish vintage tile in Riverside and Avondale homes?

    We evaluate vintage ceramic and porcelain tile surfaces for refinishing eligibility. Older tile surrounds are often structurally sound and well-suited to refinishing, depending on the material and condition. We assess what's there before recommending a course of action.

  • Is refinishing appropriate for original fixtures in an older home?

    It depends on the surface, its material, and its current condition. Refinishing can be a practical way to restore original fixtures without removing them — but suitability varies. A free estimate gives us a chance to evaluate what you have and give you an honest answer.
