Summer moves are in full swing, and whether you’re getting your home ready to sell, settling into a new space before the school year starts, or helping clients prep their properties, one thing’s certain: refinishing is a smarter, faster alternative to costly renovations.

Professional surface refinishing gives homeowners, landlords, and real estate professionals the ability to transform kitchens, bathrooms, tile, and countertops—without the time and mess of full demolition. Full renovations are costly and time-consuming, but with professional refinishing products from NAPCO, you can refresh key surfaces quickly and affordably. NAPCO offers a complete line of kitchen and bath refinishing solutions that deliver dramatic results in less time, making them ideal for both homeowners and pros.

Why Refinish Before or After a Move?

Moving presents the perfect opportunity to refresh worn-out surfaces or modernize outdated finishes—either to attract buyers or settle into a clean, updated space.

Unlike full renovations that take weeks and thousands of dollars, refinishing delivers fast turnaround with impressive results. Whether it’s updating tired tubs, restoring dull countertops, or reviving old cabinets, NAPCO refinishing products make it possible to achieve like-new finishes on a tight timeline and budget.

Create Stunning First Impressions at Entry Points

Entryway Tile:
Tile in entryways is one of the first things buyers and guests notice. Instead of ripping up outdated or worn tile, refinishers can apply NAPCO’s Polyglass 320 Coating System to give flooring a durable, modern finish. It stands up to foot traffic while making a polished first impression.

Fireplace Surrounds:
Fireplaces can either charm or age a room. The tile or stone around the fireplace can be transformed with Polyglass 3.0 in warm or neutral tones to create a fresh focal point without a costly remodel.

Kitchen & Bath Refresh Without the Demolition

For most buyers, the kitchen and bathroom are the make-or-break spaces. Using NAPCO’s professional-grade products, refinishers can offer updates that look like full remodels without the mess.

Outdated Cabinets? No Problem.

Kitchen cabinets looking tired or outdated? NAPCO’s Kitchen Renew products make refinishing fast and efficient. The waterborne formula provides a smooth, factory-like finish and dries quickly, minimizing downtime for homeowners.

Countertops with Character But Not the Good Kind?

Countertops with stains, scratches, or 1990s tile? NAPCO’s Kitchen Renew and Flint-Stone line allow refinishers to apply a stone-look finish that mimics granite or solid surface styles. Available in a variety of colors and textures, it’s a smart way to elevate the kitchen without ripping anything out.

Bathrooms That Shine Again

Bathrooms are another top priority for sellers and buyers alike. From dull tile to worn tubs, NAPCO’s Epoxy Primer coatings are perfect for refinishing surfaces quickly and beautifully. These products create a seamless, high-gloss finish that resists moisture and wear, ideal for shower surrounds, vanities, and tubs.
