Maintaining your rental properties is required to ensure that you not only attract tenants to rent from you, but to ensure that you are properly compensated for the use of your property. Renovations and upgrades to the home itself can help make the home or units more aesthetically pleasing, but oftentimes, the bathroom is skipped especially the tub. 

If your rental property’s tub is worn out, ugly, outdated, or damaged, you may be wondering just what you can do. Unfortunately, tenants who see the tub will not want to rent the unit leaving it vacant and you with a loss of revenue. 

Instead of replacing your damaged and ugly tubs, bathtub reglazing is a great alternative, and it is extremely affordable for property managers. In addition, reglazing your tub can help maximize your ROI and increase profits. 

Make Your Tenants Happy with Bathtub Reglazing Services

Happy tenants mean more money for you. Happy tenants also mean fewer vacancies and lease renewals. However, to make sure that your tenants are happy, you must make sure that your homes and apartments are visually appealing. 

Bathtub refinishing can help guarantee that your tenants will be happy. Here’s how reglazing contributes to happiness:

1. Cleanliness: Reglazing offers a clean place for your tenants to take a bath. Over time, bathtubs, and the grout around them start to harbor bacteria. Reglazing the tub prevents this from happening.
2. Comfort: A tub that is chipped or peeling has a rough surface making the tub itself uncomfortable to bathe in. Reglazing the tub ensures that the surface is smooth and comfortable for your tenants. 
3. Attractive: There is no doubt that an ugly tub will turn away tenants, but a reglazed tub that shines and sparkles will put a smile on their faces. 

Eliminate Long Periods of Vacancy with Tub Reglazing 

Units and homes that sit unrented and vacant lose you money each month. One of the reasons why tenants will move out of an apartment or home is because they are unhappy with some aspect of it. Bathtub refinishing can help to cut down on the amount of time that your rentals sit vacant on the market. 

By choosing to reglaze, you will find that you can turn your vacant units around quicker and attract more tenants. Remember, tenants look at the bathroom and a beautiful bathroom is a strong selling point for many, especially families. 

Maximize Your ROI with Bathtub Refinishing 

There is an initial investment that comes along with bathtub reglazing, but this investment is much cheaper than replacement. You can maximize your ROI (return on investment) when you choose to reglaze. 

1. Reglazing vs. Replacing: Before you reglaze, consider the cost of refinishing and replacement. You will quickly see that reglazing can save you a lot of money, especially as you are likely to have multiple properties or apartments that need the service. 
2. Retention: Tenants who are happy continue to renew their leases. This helps reduce any costs associated with turning over a unit or a unit sitting vacant. 
3. Increased Rental Prices: Improvements made to your units or homes allow you to charge more in rent as the space is updated and modern. 
4. Long-Term Savings: Resurfacing your tubs will save you money in the long term too as it will extend the life of your tub and delay replacement.
