Is $2,000 to professionally refinish a cast iron tub a fair price?
Project Details
We bought an older home that has a cast iron tub that needed refinishing as it was peeling. We thought we could refinish the tub/walls on our own, but we failed. Now we don’t really have a budget to work with to fix things. We have an 8 month old baby and are only giving him showers as we’re afraid he will ingest the flaking paint. I want to be able to give my baby a bath again. I am looking for low budget solutions.
